Layout boat hunting is a very exciting & unique way to experience waterfowl “up close & personal”! We use custom built, two-man layout boats made by Layout Addictions in Wisconsin (where hunting divers & sea ducks in the Great Lakes can only be done from a layout!). Our custom “Ghost-2 Man” layout boats are approximately 10’8” long by 75” wide, weight capacity of over 500 lbs, super buoyant even in choppy waters, and have a super low profile coupled with a custom paint job that makes you “disappear” on the open water! Ducks will decoy right in your lap, completely unaware. We utilize a tender boat that stands by at a safe distance and communicates with the layout hunters via handheld VHS radio so when birds get knocked down the tender boat will fetch them up!
What to bring:
-
Waders and camo clothing for both cool and warm weather
-
12 or 20 gauge shotgun with a modified or full choke
-
At least 1 to 2 boxes of non-toxic shotgun shells PER HUNT (Shot Sizes #2, #3, and #4 are the best for North Florida). We sell MIGRA® Ammunition at the lodge! Call Chris to check available inventory 850-251-8650
