The vast majority of the time you would only need hip waders. However, we recommend chest waders to accommodate all types of hunting that may take place.
I don't get around like I used too, or I have special physical limitations, can I still hunt with you?
Absolutely! Depending on your specific needs, we have a wide variety of excellent hunting opportunity for those that are physically challenged. It is my personal commitment to make every accommodation possible for anyone, young and old, that enjoys the great outdoors!
Does Big Creek Waterfowl Club guarantee me limits of Ducks and Geese?
No, and if anyone tries to, go somewhere else. Successful Waterfowl hunting is a combination of several very critical elements all coming together to create the desired outcome. We have taken ever measure practically possible to maximize those critical elements that we can control, which are: water, habitat, food, rest areas, and limited hunting pressure. Weather (here and further up north) have a dramatic impact on our population of Ducks and Geese in the area and which we have no control. What we do guarantee is a first class experience, excellent habitat, and blinds to optimize your success rate.
Can I bring my own dog?
We encourage hunters to bring their own dogs. Hunters must have their dog's shots up to date and any other appropriate traveling credentials as required from airlines if you are flying in on commercial airlines. Kennels are available for dogs and you should plan on bringing enough food for your dogs stay.
Are Women and Children welcome?
Absolutely!
