Duck Hunting – at Grand River Landing

 

Duck Hunting at Grand River Landing is duck hunting the way the “old timer’s” did it. Imagine this – climbing into your boat, harbored within a newly designed secluded timbered river landing, and launching off into the Grand River to find the perfect spot for the day’s hunting conditions. Late season hunting is a bonus on the river, because the river’s flow keeps waters open in cold freezing conditions.

HISTORY

 

Grand River Landing is a premier waterfowl hunting area in North Missouri. It is located on a natural flyway that exists between the Swan Lake National Wildlife Area Refuge (near Sumner, Missouri) and the Missouri Conservation's Grand Pass Waterfowl Refuge (near Miami, Missouri). Swan Lake occupies 10,800 acres and has the largest wintering population of Eastern Prairie Canada Geese on the continent. Over 250,000 mallards along with a variety of other ducks were also present during the 2006 season. The Grand Pass Refuge encompasses some 4,700 acres and has become Missouri's key wintering ground for mallards. Each year has seen significant increase in the mallard population with last year's count exceeding 300,000.

 

Grand River Landing is a 75 acre tract of land located four miles Northwest of Brunswick, Missouri, right next to the Grand River, and three miles north of the Missouri River. This puts the land midway between the natural flyway between the Swan Lake and Grand Pass Wildlife Refuges. Grand River Landing is the location where ducks and geese from both refuges come to feed and roost. For many decades, this entire area has been the home to excellent waterfowl hunting, especially Canada geese and Mallard ducks. To top it off – field after field of surrounding private farmlands offer abundant corn and milo as a food source for the birds.

 

This is truly the “duck magnet” of this superior waterfowl flyway.

THE HUNTING

 

Waterfowl

The types of waterfowl hunting run the entire gamut. The season starts with September teal hunting, continues with three months of mallard hunting in October, November, and December, and is followed by large flocks of Canada geese arriving in December. The culmination of the waterfowl season is spring snow goose hunting, which is the best to be found anywhere. Over a half million snow and blue geese come through this flyway on their return to Canada. All birds are decoyed, and the shots taken are well within range. Roosting waterfowl, ducks passing over the oxbow to feed in the secluded on-site private refuge, and the birds exchanging between the two state and federal refuges offer a total and complete waterfowl experience.
