If you love waterfowl hunting, you know you have to be where the birds are if your going to have much success. Everyone I know that loves "duck" hunting talks about Canada and how great it is. This is true! We all know someone who has hunted there; we've seen the TV shows, the outdoor shows, talked to the guides, viewed their video's....well, don't wait any longer! I have an outfitter (John Kuypers) that sits right in the hot spot for the Fall migration where millions of ducks and geese stage before heading South. Hunt multiple species of Canada Geese, White Front Geese (Specks), Snow-Blue & Ross Geese and a wide variety of ducks, including Mallards, Pintails, Sandhill Cranes and for those who love upland birds, it's a good area for Sharp-tailed Grouse, Ruffed Grouse and Hungarian Partridge with one of their Munsterlanders.
Located in Saskatchewan, limits are generous. Hunters are allowed a daily limit of eight dark geese, which can include five speckelbelly geese. The daily white goose limit is 20. Combined with a daily limit of eight ducks only four may be Pintails, and five Sandhill Cranes. Hunters that are set up in a hot field on these prairies can experience incredible shooting. Sharp-tailed Grouse, Ruffed Grouse and Hungarian Partridge also call Saskatchewan home, you can have some fun with one of our Small Munsterlanders hunting these birds along shed rows in the fields. Sharp-tailed Grouse daily limit of two, season limit of four. Hungarian Partridge offers a daily limit of four, season limit of eight. Ruffed Grouse daily limit of ten. There are specific dates for hunting upland game birds if you are a non-resident. Please let us know if this interests you so we can check dates, and add upland game birds to your license.

Where approximately in Saskatchewan does the hunt take place?


Mike

Legistine actu? Quid scripsi?

Never under estimate the internet community's ability to reply to your post with their personal rant about their tangentially related, single occurrence issue.




What I have learned on AR, since 2001:
1. The proper answer to: Where is the best place in town to get a steak dinner? is…You should go to Mel's Diner and get the fried chicken.
2. Big game animals can tell the difference between .015 of an inch in diameter, 15 grains of bullet weight, and 150 fps.
3. There is a difference in the performance of two identical projectiles launched at the same velocity if they came from different cartridges.
4. While a double rifle is the perfect DGR, every 375HH bolt gun needs to be modified to carry at least 5 down.
5. While a floor plate and detachable box magazine both use a mechanical latch, only the floor plate latch is reliable. Disregard the fact that every modern military rifle uses a detachable box magazine.
6. The Remington 700 is unreliable regardless of the fact it is the basis of the USMC M40 sniper rifle for 40+ years with no changes to the receiver or extractor and is the choice of more military and law enforcement sniper units than any other rifle.
7. PF actions are not suitable for a DGR and it is irrelevant that the M1, M14, M16, & AK47 which were designed for hunting men that can shoot back are all PF actions.
8. 95 deg F in Africa is different than 95 deg F in TX or CA and that is why you must worry about ammunition temperature in Africa (even though most safaris take place in winter) but not in TX or in CA.
9. The size of a ding in a gun's finish doesn't matter, what matters is whether it’s a safe ding or not.
10. 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact.
11. Never buy a WSM or RCM cartridge for a safari rifle or your go to rifle in the USA because if they lose your ammo you can't find replacement ammo but don't worry 280 Rem, 338-06, 35 Whelen, and all Weatherby cartridges abound in Africa and back country stores.
12. A well hit animal can run 75 yds. in the open and suddenly drop with no initial blood trail, but the one I shot from 200 yds. away that ran 10 yds. and disappeared into a thicket and was not found was lost because the bullet penciled thru. I am 100% certain of this even though I have no physical evidence.
13. A 300 Win Mag is a 500 yard elk cartridge but a 308 Win is not a 300 yard elk cartridge even though the same bullet is travelling at the same velocity at those respective distances.

Hi Mike, around multiple farms outside of Saskatoon. They pick you up from the airport, take you to their lodging and transport you each day. Includes food, lodging, license, bird cleaning etc. You provide your shells. If you drive up, they'll arrange a meeting place or at the lodge. Best, LD
