Bay & Gulf Duck Hunt

Hunt in the local bays (Pensacola Bay, Escambia Bay and East Bay) and the Intracoastal Waterway (the sound between the shore and the barrier Islands)

On Bay and Gulf Hunts we encounter Redheads, Ringnecks, Bluebills (Greater Scaup), Buffleheads, Common and Hooded Mergansers

When it comes to hunting ducks, Pensacola is a special place!

Perched on the western edge of the Atlantic Flyway, the Pensacola area offers a unique opportunity for duck hunters to encounter species common in the Atlantic as well as the Mississippi and Central Flyways to the west. Bluebills (Greater Scaups) and Wood Ducks, common residents of the Eastern Flyway as well as Redheads and Gadwalls (Gray Ducks), more common in the Mississippi and Central Flyways, can all be encountered on a duck hunting trip in the Pensacola area.

The Pensacola area also offers the opportunity to hunt ducks commonly found in freshwater ponds such as Mallards, Teal and Wood Ducks as well as 'sea ducks' that are often found wintering in coastal bays and estuaries and in the Intracoastal Waterway such as Buffleheads and Bluebills.
