The Location

The duck and goose hunting at our location is dynamic. We have a constant influx and outflux of ducks. Spotting (scouting) is vitally important and our spotters and guides constantly monitor bird movement.

The goose hunting in Saskatchewan is usually in fields. Our guides have a wealth of experience and KNOW Saskatchewan goose hunting, which is unlike any other anywhere else. They can adapt to any goose-hunting situation. Our waterfowl spotters and goose guides maintain close communication to assure maximum success. Careful coordination and planning is required for each day of goose hunting. The guides will determine a strategy based on wind direction, terrain, where the geese were coming from and where the geese actually were in the field. They will put you on the “X”.

We use layout blinds, bale blinds or natural willow blinds. The set-up includes a full array of goose-hunting decoys and equipment. We use full-body Bigfoots, magnum shells, flags, motion decoys, silhouettes and flapper decoys. Goose hunting in Canada over water is something our clients often request and we can usually accommodate but it depends on the location. An intermediate watering hole is fine, but we NEVER hunt geese on their roost. Be very cautious of outfitters who hunt on a roost. This is a red flag of inexperience. If hunted on the roost, geese will usually leave the area and may not return the following year. The rule of thumb is: Go goose hunting in a field and the geese find a new field (and you can follow), go goose hunting on a roost and the geese find a new roost (and may be gone for good).

As one of the best waterfowl-hunting outfitters in Canada, we have the experience to achieve success and the professionalism to ensure our clients hunt in comfort.

Canada duck hunting in Saskatchewan is dynamic, and exciting. Most waterfowl hunting in Canada is similar. But in our area we seem to have a constant influx and outflux of ducks. We are located at the northernmost agricultural area of Saskatchewan. As the ducks and geese head south, we are the first grain, oat and pea fields they encounter. This provides fantastic duck hunting since fresh birds are constantly arriving.

Our waterfowl spotters and guides are the key to successful duck hunting. They must monitor, check and double-check ducks in the area. The guides have the experience to take you hunting in a variety of situations and they are fully equipped to handle any condition. You could be duck hunting on river banks, sloughs, potholes or beaver bogs.  We have access to duck boats with Mud Buddy motors for hunting in the big-water marshes. Our guides also will often coordinate hunts in wheat or barley fields where swarms of mallards are attacking the grain.

At Goose Haven, we don’t take you duck hunting in a designated blind that gets hunted day in and day out, week in and week out. Our waterfowl spotters and guides find the best spots holding the most birds and that’s where you go duck hunting!  As with our goose hunts, you can expect to be duck hunting in a different location every day.

At Goose Haven, the waterfowl-hunting opportunities seem endless. We design and implement a waterfowl hunting plan specifically for you. We want you to be part of the process.  Tell us your preference. Is it canvasbacks on big water? Teal flying in with afterburners on down the slough? Pintails and wigeon dive-bombing a marsh? Or swarms of mallards covering a barley field? We can tailor your Saskatchewan goose- and duck-hunting adventure to your preference. We have two well-trained hunting retrievers, but your dog is always welcome.
