Trip Rundown

Picture this: You're setting up before dawn, the salty Gulf breeze in your face as you hunker down in a prime spot on the Texas Flats. Captain Cory's got you dialed in where the ducks are flying, and as the sun creeps up, the sky comes alive with wings. This ain't no zoo trip – it's real deal hunting that'll test your skills and get your heart pumping. We keep it tight with just two hunters per boat, so you've got plenty of elbow room to work those calls and take your shots. If you've got a bigger crew (up to four), no sweat – we can set you up with a second boat. Don't forget to bring your A-game, your own gear, and that all-important hunting license. Oh, and a word to the wise: a 20% cash tip at the end goes a long way with your guide. Trust me, after the day you'll have, you'll be happy to shell out a little extra.

Swamp Savvy

Hunting the Texas Flats ain't like shooting ducks in a barrel – it's a whole different ballgame. We're talking shallow water, thick vegetation, and birds that can spot you from a mile away if you're not careful. Captain Cory's got all the tricks up his sleeve to keep you hidden and the ducks coming in hot. We'll set up a killer spread of decoys, and he'll teach you how to work that duck call like a pro. You'll be using layout boats or pop-up blinds, depending on where the birds are hanging out that day. And let me tell you, when a flock of whistlers comes screaming in over the decoys, it's a rush like nothing else. Just remember to lead 'em right, and you'll be filling that strap in no time.

Bird Breakdown

Let's talk about our star of the show – the Fulvous Whistling-Duck. These beauties are like the Ferraris of the duck world, sleek and fast with that unmistakable whistle as they fly by. They're not your typical mallard or teal; these guys are in a league of their own. Fulvous Whistling-Ducks are medium-sized, with long necks and legs that make 'em look almost goose-like when they're on the ground. But don't let that fool you – they're quick on the wing and can turn on a dime.

These ducks love the coastal prairies and marshes of Texas, which is why Port Aransas is prime hunting ground. They're most active at dawn and dusk, so our early morning start puts us in the perfect position to intercept them as they head out to feed. Fulvous Whistling-Ducks are social critters, often flying in tight groups, which can make for some exciting volley shooting when they commit to the decoys.

What's cool about these ducks is their unique call – it's not your typical quack, but more of a high-pitched whistle that carries across the flats. Learning to mimic this call is an art form, and Captain Cory's got it down pat. He'll show you how to bring 'em in close for those perfect shots.

The best time to target Fulvous Whistling-Ducks is during the fall and winter months when they're most abundant in the area. Hunters love 'em not just for the challenge they present, but also for their tasty meat – it's got a rich, slightly nutty flavor that's hard to beat. Plus, bagging one of these beauties is a real feather in your cap (pun intended) – they're not as common as some other species, so you've got some serious bragging rights when you bring one home.
