Ray and Brenda Nix, owners of Crazy Ray’s Adventures are offering an over-night live aboard sea duck hunt for 4 hunters in the Prince William Sound, departing from Whittier Alaska.
Alaska’s Prince William Sound is home to the largest population of Sea Ducks in North America and Crazy Ray’s Adventures are extremely fortunate to be able to provide you with an Alaska Sea Duck Hunting adventure of a lifetime.
You will see some of the most beautiful breathtaking scenery that southcentral Alaska can offer. This scenery will serve as your backdrop while chasing trophy birds to include Harlequin, Barrows/Common Goldeneye, all three species of Scoters, Common and Red Breasted Mergansers, Buffleheads and several species of puddle ducks.
Their mission is to get your trophy birds all while providing the best Alaska Sea Duck Hunting experience one can offer.
Included Overnight live aboard and ducking hunting for 4 people, field (boat) transportation to/from the hunting area, decoys and all hunting gear, except your personal shotgun, ammo and waders.
Not Included meals (can be provided, more info below), hunting license, federal and Alaska Duck Stamps.
The boat typically departs from the dock at 8:00am the morning of the trip and returns at around 5 pm the last day of the trip. Note: Return time fluctuates slightly based on the amount of available daylight.
Sea Duck season runs from October 1st through December 16th, 2020
The best time to Hunt Alaska Sea Ducks? If your goal is to come to Alaska are in pursuit of trophy birds in full winter plumage to add to your collection. It is best to book from November 1st thru December 16th, when most birds will have very few pin feathers and all markings on mature birds will be true. After November 1st, lakes and ponds are freezing-up in the interior and birds are getting pushed south into the Prince William Sound where numbers continue to increase daily.
Why choose a live-aboard for your Alaska Sea Duck Hunt? The greatest advantage to choosing the liveaboard option is the ability to maximize your hunting time and opportunity. Hunting locations can vary from 1-3 hours travel time from port one way depending on the species you are targeting.
The advantage of having the liveaboard vessel is that it provides you the opportunity to be established and ready to hunt at daybreak on day 2 and 3. With a smaller window of shooting light there’s less time wasted traveling. We will be anchored near the next morning’s hunting location ensuring you have greatest opportunity for harvesting your trophy birds.
Meals: Crazy Rays can arrange to have your meals cooked for you if needed or you are more than welcome to prepare your own.
Everything you could possibly need is provided, from a BBQ grill to a small oven with a two-burner stove.
Crazy Ray’s provides all the amenities you should need for food preparation, coolers are available for your food storage and It’s as simple as stopping by the store in Anchorage on your way to Whittier and gathering what you would like to have.
For an additional fee breakfast, lunch (usually consisting of sandwiches) and a hot dinner can be provided. With this option, you can sit back and enjoy the breathtaking scenery and a hot meal after a long cold day on the water.
“We love waterfowl hunting. We understand your passion for waterfowl hunting, and we want to exceed your expectations while pursuing your dream in obtaining these trophy birds. Let us give you an experience you will not forget, all while making memories to last a lifetime.” Raymond and Brenda Nix
