Description

Layout Boat Duck Hunting

Half or Full-Day Hunts | Lodging Available


Layout boat hunting is a very exciting & unique way to experience waterfowl “up close & personal”! We use custom-built, two-man layout boats made by Layout Addictions in Wisconsin (where hunting divers & sea ducks in the Great Lakes can only be done from a layout!). Our custom “Ghost-2 Man” layout boats are approximately 10’8” long by 75” wide, weight capacity of over 500 lbs, are super buoyant even in choppy waters, and have a super low profile coupled with a custom paint job that makes you “disappear” on the open water! Ducks will decoy right in your lap, completely unaware. We utilize a tender boat that stands by at a safe distance and communicates with the layout hunters via handheld VHS radio so when birds get knocked down the tender boat will fetch them up!


Whether you're looking for a singular species to cross off your list or you just want a great time in the blind with family and friends, look no further than the Sunshine State for your ultimate waterfowl experience.


The base price is per person for a half-day hunt, a minimum of 2 hunters to book. Full-day hunts are available for an additional fee. Add on Non-hunting guests or lodging for an additional fee per person.
