What to expect from your hunt

"Dr. Glen and the Boys After a Great Day of Hunting"

After you book a hunt with Northern Flight Guide Service, we will send you a confirmation letter and checklist of important gear you will need. Along with a check list we include a map on how to get to the resort and a fact sheet that you will need to fill out. The fact sheet lists the names and addresses of the hunters in your group. We are required to maintain a client list by law and we use the information to pre print bird tags for your group. Clients arrive the night before the booked hunt and get checked into their unit, have a great evening meal, and go over the game plan for the next days hunt with their guide. The next morning, your group will be picked up early and leave for the hunt. You have the option to hunt Snows, blues, or Canadian geese, ducks on land or over water, or hunt diver ducks on large water. Depending on your preference, your guide will do his best to get your group into your preferred bird of choice. Your guide will go over the best opportunities that he feels are available for the days you are here.

"Full Day of Duck and Goose Hunting Over a Corn Field"

Northern Flights has exclusive hunting rights to thousands of private acres. We have been in the business of guiding waterfowlers since 1988, and have hand selected some of the most productive properties in the area.

For hunters that want to keep busy in the afternoon, we have a variety of options. Many clients take us up on our free afternoon self-guided duck hunts. We can show your group to some of our private water leases where you can spend the afternoon gunning ducks. Waders and a dozen or two duck floaters are all you need.

Other clients choose to fish. Devils Lake is a top fishery for Walleye, Northern Pike, and Perch. You can opt to hire an afternoon guide or rent a boat from the resort. Various shore fishing locations can also provide some great fall fishing action.

While you are fishing or duck hunting, your guide will be scouting for the next day's hunt. This is the single largest contributor to the success of your guided hunt. Guides spend the afternoon scouting a large area to observe the birds and make a game plan for your next day's hunt. This is where we look for the best opportunities and options. Our guides take their homework very seriously so that your group can capitalize on the best opportunity available.
