Yakutat Chamber
of Commerce | Our
waterfowl hunts take place near our lodge on Yakutat Bay. Our hunts begin
during the second week of October, and run through mid-December. Sea duck
shooting over decoys is from shore blinds and Barnegat sneakboxes used as layout
boats. Sea duck limits are generous and the setting is spectacular.
Puddle duck shooting over decoys takes place on the many rivers, lakes, and marshes
in the area.
| During
the course of our season, a wide variety of waterfowl species are hunted.
These include: |
Nothern Shoveler Pintail Widgeon Greater Scaup American Goldeneye
Harlequin Ring-necked Duck Hooded Merganser Red-breasted Merganser
White-winged Scoter Canada Goose |
Mallard Gadwall Green-winged Teal Lesser Scaup Barrows Goldeneye
Old Squaw Bufflehead Common Merganser Black Scoter Surf Scoter

| | A
suggestion for those who have not owned or used some of the man made polyester
garments is that we find them excellent in our wet climate. They are warm,
lightweight, comfortable, and are quickly dried. Wool, of course, is the
classic clothing for cold and wet weather. We recommend wool or polyester
garments under your raingear. | |
