PLD Outfitters and Illinois waterfowl hunting cannot be compared to any other duck hunting area in the United States. Hunt diver ducks such as canvasbacks, or Mallards, Wood Ducks, and Teal in cozy dry pits! The habitat has been managed for ducks for several years. Our professional guides will transport you straight to the pit for each hunt. They will also be doing all the calling and may even fix you a hot breakfast right in the blind! Duck Migration

A great day Duck Hunting in Illinois Every fall, ducks fly South to winter. Along the way, ducks will utilize the Mississippi and Illinois river flyways to feed on aquatic vegetation and leftover grain from agriculture fields to aid their long journey Southward. One will often see an influx of ducks right before and the days following major cold fronts. When open water begins to freeze, ducks will be pushed further Southward in search of food.
