Food and Wines
After returning from the hunts enjoy greats hor d' oeuvres and drinks at the bar where you can share stories and anecdotes.
Excellent meals and premium Argentinean wines will be waiting for you.
Lincoln Outfitters is one of Argentina’s newest most recommended duck hunting destinations.
One of the reasons for such an abundant duck population is the fact that local residents do not participate any kind of wingshooting.
Having said that is important to point out that Argentina is one of the few countries in the world where people is legally allow to own and bear guns.
However, unlike in the US, duck hunting has not been in our tradition.
Argentineans will never shoot doves or geese for the sport, and very few of us will shoot ducks.
Within the Lincoln area increased rainfall over the past fifteen years along with an extensive grain production have created ideal waterfowl conditions by providing vast amounts of marshes, ponds, lakes and potholes allowing superior feeding and roosting nearby.
Daily Hunting Schedule
Morning starts early, usually at 5 a.m. Hunts depart the lodge in the dark, after a hearty breakfast made to order.
Drives time vary, depending on water conditions, at range from 10 to 50 minutes, after the trip, hunters are positioned in the blinds 10 to 15 minutes before it start to clear up.
Hunting clients in the field will be hidden in individual poly-tub 60" diameter reeded flower-pot blinds as well as traditional two-man surface blinds with the availability of a bird boy offering his assistance on hot and cold drinks, snacks and an extra set of eyes to alert you of incoming ducks.
Returning to the lodge in late morning for lunch and after a short siesta depart at 3 PM for another shooting ending at dark.
