About Your Trip

Captain Keith's Duck Hunts offers a premier hunting experience across various scenic bays in the Florida Panhandle, specializing in diver duck hunting for redheads, bluebills, buffleheads, and canvasbacks. With extensive knowledge of St. Andrews Bay, North Bay, West Bay, and East Bay, we adapt each hunt to changing weather conditions and recent scouting reports, ensuring the best chances for a successful outing.

Our 2023 GatorTail custom boat, outfitted with a 40XD Surface Drive and a custom blind, offers a comfortable and secure platform for hunters of all levels. This setup, combined with our skilled hunting techniques, allows for a top-notch experience from start to finish.

To complete the adventure, Lady Kapena, a skilled Boykin Spaniel, assists by retrieving your waterfowl, and you’re welcome to bring your own trained retriever as well. Join Captain Keith for a memorable hunting experience in some of Florida’s most picturesque waters, where comfort, skill, and excitement await.

Capt. Keith’s knowledge of the local flora and fauna exemplifies a true Florida waterman. We felt at home and comfy on his vessel and enjoyed the liquids of both the bay, and cooler. A few fish iced the cake of an already memorable trip, while the storied adventure was the real treat. We’ll be back.

We had terrible weather for our trip which made the day slow, but Keith has a great positive attitude and energy and worked hard to put us on the fish. Despite the very poor weather, we were still able to catch a few sharks (our target) and some other fish. We appreciated Keith’s focus and hard work to give us success!

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.
