Great Lakes Longtail Hunt

Welcome to Longtails and Longline's Great Lakes Longtail Hunt

Location: Lake Michigan and Lake Huron

Target Species: Trophy Long-tailed Duck aka Old Squaw

Are you looking to get that trophy longtail off your bucket list? You no longer have to worry about traveling to the coast and enduring the harsh ocean conditions, the Great Lakes is the new destination! Wildfowl Magazine recently called the Great Lakes “an emerging hotspot with booming numbers of one of our most stunning sea ducks”. Come join in on the action for yourself!! We are able to travel to the ducks based on the best weather and shooting conditions, allowing you the best possible chance at the “stud” of a lifetime. Hunting locations range from Eastern Lake Michigan to the legendary Saginaw Bay on Lake Huron and down to Port Huron also on Lake Huron. Plan on bringing lots of shells for this hunt, these fast flying sea ducks will humble even the most seasoned hunter!
