Waterfowl Hunting Outfitters
FAQs
This is a question asked by many hunters whom are looking to book a Saskatchewan hunt. Simply put Saskatchewan, Canada is the premier location for your waterfowl hunt, no matter when in the fall. Our season beginning on September 1st is a great time to enjoy mild weather and lots of birds. Our hunts only extend to, on or around October 15th. Saskatchewan weather can be extremely unpredictable later than these dates. Ensuring you have the absolute best odds of a hunt of a lifetime with a lot of shooting we run a short season making sure you’re there when it matters most, prime migration.
Our operation is called “The Fringe Outfitters” for a reason. Our hunting area is located on the border of the fringe (where ag fields meet the forest). Our hunting area was specifically purchased to ensure our clients are always on top of fresh birds just starting their long journey south. This means less hunter footprint, creating less pressured birds and much higher success rates.
Saskatoon International Airport (YXE) is the closest airport to our hunting location.
You are allowed to travel into Canada with your firearm. You will be provided with the required paperwork and instructions to fill out your paperwork prior to the hunt. Customs will ask to see your firearm in your gun case to match serial numbers with your paperwork. It’s not a confusing process as thousands and thousands of hunters travel into Canada each and every year to enjoy the awesome hunting there is to offer.
Unique to our style of business/hunting you will be alongside a guide as well as your hosts, the owners of the outfitting business. Both Devon and Keith are “working owners” sharing the field with clients to ensure your quality of hunts and stay with “The Fringe Outfitters”.
We host single hunters and a maximum of 6 hunters per group. Keep in mind to secure the lodge and field to your group alone there must be a minimum of 5 hunters. If you have less hunters in your group but want to secure the lodge and field to your group alone we can customize a price to do so.
We ask you phone or email Devon or Keith to go over your hunt details and have dates picked for you/your group. Once your hunt details have been confirmed there’s a 50% deposit required to save your hunt dates. Dates will not be saved until the deposits have been received. Your remainder of payments will be due no later than the last day of July.
We advise you purchase cancellation insurance for your hunting trip as your deposits are non-refundable. There’s a lot of administrative work and resources that go into your hunt and unfortunately due to that reason alone we cannot provide any refunds.
There is an absolute guarantee you, along with your group will enjoy your hunting trip. Your hosts Devon and Keith will put forth every effort to make sure of this! Please give us a call or shoot us an email to book your hunt today!
