When waterfowl season hits, everything changes, weather, tactics, gear. This collection is your one-stop kit for chasing ducks and geese across flooded timber, open water, or the frozen fields of late season.
From waterproof, breathable waders and insulated layering systems to duck and goose calls, muffs, handwarmers, and cold-weather socks. Every piece is chosen for performance in wet, frigid, and fast-paced conditions. Whether you're hunkered in a blind or crawling through cattails, this gear keeps you dry, warm, and ready for the shot.
Featuring apparel, accessories, and tools trusted by serious waterfowlers, this collection is built for brutal mornings, big flights, and birds that won't commit unless you're dialed.
Most waterfowl waders come with integrated duck boots, which are designed to provide a waterproof seal and extra warmth. However, some models allow you to choose the type of boot or come with removable boots, providing flexibility for different conditions.
Yes, waterfowl waders can be used for other hunting activities that involve wet, marshy, or flooded terrain, such as turkey hunting in wetlands or small-game hunting near rivers or lakes.
The lifespan of your waders depends on the material, frequency of use, and care. On average, with proper care, a good pair of waterfowl waders can last 3-5 years or longer.
Waterfowl hunting demands specialized gear due to the cold, wet environments and the nature of the quarry. Essential items include waterproof waders, insulated outerwear, duck or goose calls, durable gloves and muffs, hearing protection, and warm socks like those from Kenetrek. Accessories like windproof face coverings, handwarmers, and game bags also add comfort and utility in the blind or marsh.
Duck calls generally produce higher-pitched, faster quacks and feed chatter, mimicking mallards and other puddle ducks. Goose calls are deeper and more resonant, tailored to imitate honks, clucks, and moans of geese like Canadas. Many hunters carry both to match the birds they’re targeting and create more realistic calling scenarios. Phelps calls are a great example of quality, user-friendly options in both categories.
Cold, stiff hands can ruin a hunt, whether you’re trying to call, shoot, or reload. Insulated hand muffs, especially when paired with chemical or electric handwarmers, help maintain dexterity and warmth without bulky gloves. This is critical for waterfowlers who need to react quickly and precisely to incoming birds in freezing weather.
Absolutely. Shotgun blasts, especially in the confines of a blind or when multiple hunters are firing, can cause long-term hearing damage. Modern electronic hearing protection allows you to hear ambient sounds and conversation while protecting your ears from gunfire. Look for compact, low-profile models that won’t interfere with your hat, muffs, or cheek weld.
