Seasons & Regulations


We have an eight-week timeframe in which we will accommodate hunters (Sept 17– Nov 10/2012).

The first six and a half weeks (Sept 17– Oct 31) we call the regular season. During this time the waterfowl come out to feed in the morning, then return to the water before feeding again in the evening. As such our regular season hunts consist of two hunts a day. Each week has its own attributes; the earlier weeks usually offer the best Sandhill Crane hunting, while the later weeks quite often offer the best duck hunting. There are generally lots of geese here through the entire season and the upland hunting is quite consistent as well. While some days are better than others, we usually have good hunting right through the season.

The last week and a half (Nov 1 – Nov 10) we call the late season. As we get into November the birds start to move into a once a day feeding pattern. Given that fact we can only offer one hunt a day during our late season hunts. However the one hunt may last a lot longer that a hunt in the early season due to the fact that the birds are often still flying midday. This is when we see most of our big Canada Geese as well as full plumage mallards. We do often still get into snows and specks depending on the year but they are not our focus during the late season. During this timeframe we will only take one group of hunters (max. 6)

Bag limits:
• 8 dark geese daily(only 3 white-fronts) and 24 possession limit (9 white-fronts)
• 20 white geese daily and 60 possession limit (Snow, Blue, and Ross’ Geese)
• 8 ducks daily(only 3 may be pintails) and 24 possession limit
• 5 Cranes daily and 15 possession limit
• 8 Hungarian Partridges daily and 24 season limit
• 3 Sharp-Tailed Grouse daily and 6 season limit

Other relevant Regulations Include:

• legal shooting time is from ½ hour before sunrise to ½ hour after sunset
• non-toxic shot is required for all waterfowl hunting in Saskatchewan
• shotguns must be plugged so as not to hold more than 3 shells in total
• guns must be unloaded in vehicles (no shells in magazine or chamber)
• no alcohol is allowed in vehicles or in the field
• geese can only be hunted until 12:00 noon before October 15th. Ducks and cranes can be hunted all day, the entire season.

Firearm Regulations
The Federal Government’s firearm regulations require hunters to fill out a Non-Resident Firearm Declaration Form (CAFC 909) which we will send to all our clients in advance (can also be downloaded from this website). Most of our hunters fax this in and get pre-approved which also helps to expedite the process at the airport. This isn’t available if you are driving up in which case you will get approved at the border crossing. This temporary license (valid for 60 days) costs $25 Cdn. It can be paid with Canadian cash, Visa, MasterCard, or American Express while clearing customs. This is usually a very hassle free process, especially if you fax your form in advance and get pre-approved.
