Eastern View Outfitters provides exceptional opportunities for Puddle Ducks, Diver Ducks, Canada Goose and Snow Goose Hunts during the Fall Season in the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain Region. We have opportunities from September until April to hunt a variety of Waterfowl species from Canada Geese and Greater Snow geese in dry fields. To hunting Dabbler ducks and Diver Ducks. Dabbler ducks you are likely to encounter are Mallards, Wood Ducks, Black Ducks, Green Wing Teal, Widgeon, and Gadwalls. Diver duck species we regularly see are Common Goldeneyes, Greater Scaup aka Bluebills, Buffelheads, Ringnecks, Longtail aka Old Squaw and the occasional White wing scoter. We are located in Plattsburgh, NY on the shore of Lake Champlain and a prime migration corridor in the Atlantic Flyway. We offer our guests some of the first chances at migrating waterfowl in New York State as they leave Canada. Our waterfowl hunts are conducted in traditional Staging Habitats and Resting areas in the Atlantic Flyway that migrating waterfowl use year after year. These areas are fertile agricultural regions, swamps and marshes that are traditionally used by migrating Ducks, Canada Geese and Snow Geese year after year. We hunt on thousands of acres of private farmland. We are strictly fair-chase, no feeders, or farm raised birds.
There is nothing more magical than watching a flock of Ducks lock up into the decoys, or a group of huge Greater Canada Geese work the spread feet down in your face! Fall Snow geese–We got them! We hold the only truly reliable Fall Greater Snow goose hunting in NY from October to December. Call and schedule your hunt at the best time of the season for what you are after. Our Guides and Experienced Retrievers will make sure you have an enjoyable stress-free hunt! Guides are glad to answer questions and provide details about calling and setup strategy to help you be a better Waterfowl Hunter!
Our guests can expect the hunt preparation to start in the pre-dawn hours. You will meet your guide and go over the strategy and what you can expect for the day. Our guides will accompany you in the field before first light and help you call in the Waterfowl. When the Ducks or Geese come into range our Guides will call the shot, instructing all the hunters to take aim and make a pile! Some days hunters that are physically able will be asked help Guide with setting out or picking up the decoy spread. This is a team effort and all part of the hunt. The hunt will conclude when limits are reached or at 12 Noon. Our Guides will pick up the blinds and decoys to scout for the following days hunt. This also lets the birds rest and feed in the afternoons limiting pressure on them.
