Ducks
Argentina duck hunting begins in the dark of the morning. After a good
breakfast, we drive to the pond (15 to 45 min.) and wade to the blinds. The
Argentina duck hunting blinds are built in the natural reeds and except for a
few spots are not dry blinds. The guide spreads the decoys and as soon as light
comes, the marsh rises in thousand of noises and the ducks start flying, flock
after flock to the decoys while the guide calls them for a great morning os
Argentina duck hunting.
After shooting over 20 ducks, we head back to the lodge, for a snack and a gourmet lunch, with wonderful Argentinean wines.
During the afternoon, we hunt ducks until is dark or we limit 30. Two or three evenings out of five, we hunt Perdiz over dogs or Pigeon. Then enjoy some drinks and another outstanding meal and get ready for the next day.
