Season: November 1 – February 28
The Quail HuntQuail numbers are phenomenal in Mexico and we have access to 500,000+ acres that are loaded with wild quail and other wildlife. We manage these properties for quail habitat, which benefits the other wildlife in turn. Terrain is varied and reminiscent of South Texas, with a variety of agriculture.
Aloe, Milo, Citrus, and Agave are the primary crops we hunt by, with most quail hunting taking place on range and ranch land. Our quail are the Spotbellied subspecies endemic to central Tamaulipas. We averaged 27 coveys a day in the 24 -25 season and are looking to hit 30 a day in the 25 -26 season.
Where We Hunt
Hunts will be conducted off of well-equipped quail rigs, and within an hour and a half of the lodge. Our average drive to the Quail fields is 30 – 45 minutes, with the farthest ranch we hunt being an hour and a half.
Our Hunters can expect to see 10+ coveys of WILD BOBWHITE QUAIL, per hunt, 20 per day. This is an average, some fields and areas have far more quail. We hunt each location only once to preserve the resource.

El Dorado Outfitters
Mexico’s Premier Quail, Dove and Mixed Bag Hunting Outfitters & Lodge
El Dorado Outfitters operates in the heart of Tamaulipas’ bobwhite quail country, a true sportsman’s paradise. The area has long been known for its wing shooting, and the present is as good as it has ever been! We have ranches and fields that haven’t seen a quail hunter in 20 years, the beauty of the area is still largely untouched.
We offer wild Quail over well-trained bird dogs, Ducks in freshwater ponds and lakes, doves in the surrounding agricultural fields, and Turkeys and Bass fishing in the spring.
We pride ourselves on providing world-class wing shooting, accommodations, and personal service. An owner of El Dorado Outfitters will be guiding your hunt, hosting you at the lodge, and in attendance at all times. We not only own the operation, we live it, and we love it.
El Dorado Outfitters invites you to come experience some of the best quail hunting and wingshooting the world has to offer.
