My father and I had the pleasure of hunting with Blackduck Outfitters in September of 2007 in Manitoba.  We have hunted with a number of waterfowl outfitters throughout Mississippi, Texas and Arkansas, but we found Canada to be a new experience.  The ducks and geese where not call shy, and the variety of the gamebag was unparalleled.  Blackduck Outfitters made certain that our experience, both in the field and back at the lodge, was memorable in every way.  We'll definitely be back!

Scott,

Just a quick note to let you know we had a great time yesterday. Justin is a superb guide -- works hard and a super caller. The only reason we didn't bring home more geese is solely because of our marksmanship. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him and we're already looking forward to a replay next season.

Thanks again,
John

My son Kyle and I had the experience of a life time, hunting with Scott Barmby and Black Duck Outfitters last year in Manitoba.  The scenery, meeting other hunters, the food, and the overall hospitality; made the hunting experience special. Getting a few ducks and geese was just icing on the cake. We are going back in 2008!

Regards,
Frank

Dear Scott,

On behalf of Pearl, Matt, Brad and myself, i wanted to express our sincere thanks for a most enjoyable hunt!

We want to compliment your guides Jose and Mike, both of whom went to their utmost abilities to ensure our success.

While our shooting skills were perhaps a bit "lack luster", we all thoroughly had a wonderful time and are already planning to hunt with Black Duck Outfitters next year!

Best regards,
Steve Green

We have been hunting with Black Duck Outfitters each year since 2005.  We have hunted in both Manitoba at Hextal’s Lodge and on the Chesapeake in Maryland.   We have already booked our hunt for 2008.

In Manitoba we have had fantastic hunts for Mallards and other puddle ducks, on big water for diving ducks and many fantastic field hunts for Canada and Snow geese.  We have also had incredible field hunts for Mallards, too.

The lodging at Hextall’s is very roomy and comfortable and the food is fantastic.  The guides are always professional and call as well as, or better than.  any I have hunted with over the last thirty years of waterfowl hunting.
 
In Maryland, we were able to hunt sea ducks on the Chesapeake Bay.  We limited out many times and had lots of shooting the others.  We failed to limit only because of our shooting.

Originally, only Rob, my hunting partner went to Manitoba.  This year we took our college age sons and they experienced what I hope will be many years of family hunts.  We had a fabulous time.

Thanks,
Drew & Rob

Just got back from Manitoba.  Had a great time.  Edgar guided my brother and I on three great duck hunts.  We hunted Lake Francis and Shoal Lake, and were able to limit out on Monday and Wednesday.  We shot a pretty wide range of ducks including a bald pate widgeon and a golden eye, so we were pretty happy.  On our last morning, I was able to take down two (2) canvasbacks with one shot, so that was a first for me.   In addition to being an excellent guide, Edgar was just in general a great guy to talk with, and swap stories.

Cory and Myra did a great job with the lodge, and served up some excellent chow.  All in all, the trip was what we had hoped for.  Sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet.  Take care.

Here are my pictures from our time at your lodge.  We had a great time hunting and spending time with everyone.  You have a warm, welcoming, and professional operation in Manitoba.  Your passion for waterfowling and providing top notch hunts really shows.  Your guides are very knowledgeable and accommodating.  We would love to come back.  Unfortunately, because of my college schedule, it will not be for a season or two.  Best of luck and thank you for the lifetime memories.  Any word on Josh's mother?  We hope everything is well with him and his family.

Sincerely,
Brent and Charlie
