About Your Trip

This is an absolute Do It Yourself hunt for the experienced duck hunter who doesn't need help killing ducks! Captain Mark will ferry you're group out to an island or a duck blind out in the bay and run back to the dock to wait for ya'll to text him when you're done. Captain Mark reccomends--and most every duck hunter will agree--that you should bring your own decoy spread and duck calls to hunt over. Once Captain Mark drops you off you'll set out your decoys, brush yourself in or bring your own blind, and if you're experienced enough to handle it, blast ducks until you hit your limit. Even though Captain Mark won't be there in the blind with you, he spends all his time on the bays and knows the best spots to drop you off where ducks are flying!

We had a great time. Captain was a pleasure to be around. Caught a tone of fish could not be happier with the experience.

Mark was very helpful and polite on the trip for our guests. We struck out on any keepers, but sometimes that’s just the way it is!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.
We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.
Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
