About Your Trip

If you’re looking for an unforgettable waterfowl hunting experience in the heart of Florida’s Nature Coast, Captain Carter has you covered! With the stunning marshes and estuaries of Crystal River as your hunting grounds, you’ll be in prime position to take down a variety of ducks while soaking in the beauty of this pristine environment.

Captain Carter will take up to three hunters on this thrilling adventure, using his local knowledge and expert scouting to put you right where the birds want to be. Whether you’re a seasoned waterfowler or new to the sport, he’ll make sure you have the best shot at a successful hunt. You’ll be set up over a spread of decoys in the early morning, with the chance to target species like Blue-Winged and Green-Winged Teal, Redheads, Scaup, Ringnecks, and the occasional Pintail or Wigeon.

Captain Carter will provide a cooler with ice and bottled water, but be sure to bring your own snacks, waders, shotgun, and plenty of shells. A valid Florida hunting license and federal/state duck stamps are required for each hunter.

Whether you’re here for the challenge, the camaraderie, or just to experience the breathtaking sunrises over Crystal River’s marshes, Captain Carter is ready to make it a trip to remember. Book your hunt today and get ready for an action-packed morning in Florida’s wild backcountry!
