Kodiak Island duck hunting runs from mid October to mid January, but our outfitter typically focuses their duck hunts in December. This time of years there are lots of ducks wintering in the protected bays, channels and sloughs found among the islands. Most migrant ducks have left Alaska by mid-October, but the remaining ducks, especially sea ducks, acquire bright new plumage that is spectacular by late November. This is a tremendous time of year to collect a variety of sought after birds in their finest winter plumage; all the while hunting in remote Kodiak, Alaska.

Kodiak Island Duck Hunting

Kodiak Island has good numbers of Harlequin; Barrow’s Goldeneye; Long-tailed (Old Squaw) Ducks; and White-Winged, Surf, and Black Scoters as well as Mallard; Wigeon; Bufflehead; Merganser; and Scaup. Kodiak Island also has King Eiders and Common Eiders, but they are rare. Consider yourself lucky if you end up with one.

If you’re interested in a lot of shooting, the Goldeneye, Mallard, and Widgeon hunting is phenomenal.

The bays around Kodiak Island offer good protection for the wintering ducks, but keep in mind, this is Alaska duck hunting in the middle of the winter. Come prepared for wind, rain, snow and cold.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you, Stan Masneri

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
