Duck Hunts

Northeast North Carolina has been known for its duck hunting with the Currituck Sound being no exception. For over four generations, my family has been guiding on bodies of water such as Coinjock Bay, North River, and the Currituck Sound. North Carolina's duck hunting has been on a rising demand for all hunters. We at Fourth Generation Outfitters specialize in waterfowl hunting. A short boat ride will take you to one of our large blinds ranging from open water to marsh blinds. We also hunt from a float blind called a scissor-rig. Some of the ducks you can expect to see are puddle ducks such as teal, pintails, mallards, and black ducks and divers such as blackheads, ruddy ducks, buffleheads, canvasbacks, and redheads. Our duck seasons consist of a 4 day season in October, and starts again the second Saturday in November with a week and a half break in December and continues until the last Saturday in January. Currituck County offers an early teal season east of Highway 17 in September as well. We only allow four hunters per guide to ensure safety. We welcome father/son/daughter hunts also. Included in the hunt is transportation to and from the blind, the guide, and the setup of our G&H Decoys. Different types of hunts may be combined such as a duck/deer, swan/duck/goose, or bear/deer/duck. You must purchase a North Carolina hunting license, which can be purchased locally or by phone. A duck stamp is needed for hunting all waterfowl. You may apply for a swan permit between August 1 and October 1. Swan permits are given upon a lottery drawing so you are not guaranteed to get a swan permit. Things you will need to bring: Waders (they are not a must, but if you have them bring them), rain gear, warm clothes, firearm, ammunition, and a cooler for your meat.
