Standard goose hunting program consist of 5 days,
thereof 3 days of hunting. For best results we suggest a group
of 2 hunters.
Day 1 : In the afternoon you will arrive at Keflavik
International Airport where you will be met by the outfitter.
The outfitter will clear your weapons through customs and then
transfer you to Reykjavik. That evening you will arrive at
your hunting cabin.
Day 2 : We wake up
well before dawn for breakfast, then out to the field for the
morning hunt, until 10 or 12 in the morning. Then we will
return to the hunting lodge for meal and rest. In the
afternoon we will look for a spot, where the geese return in
the evening for the night´s rest. If we have the right
conditions, we may have a chance at a few geese at dusk. The
evening hunt is not guaranteed, but only a bonus, if we are
lucky.
Day 3 : Same schedule.
Day 4 : Same
schedule. At the the end of the day you will return to
Reykjavik by an airplane or car, depending on where you will
be hunting. Late dinner in Reykjavik.
Day 5 : Transfer to Keflavik International Airport
early next morning, arriving at a European airport around
noon.
Hunting season : From August 20th until March 15th.
The prime hunting period is from September 10th until October
20th.
The hunt : A day´s
result for 2 hunters can be anywhere between 0 - 30 geese per
day. This depends of course on the shooting ability of each
hunter, but weather, temperature and other factors of nature
will certainly also influence the result. When needed we use
dogs, preferably Labrador Retrievers. During goose hunting you
will also be able to shoot most species of ducks that might
pass your barrel. We hunt only in our own field.
What to bring :
Shotguns gauge 12, double barrel or 3-shot pump or
semi-automatic are the most suitable. Warm, waterproof
waterfowl camo clothing., warm underwear and knee high rubber
boots. Temperatures can vary from 0° - 15° centigrade, but
generally the temperature is +5 to +10 centigrade, except in
the early morning, when it can be colder. Upon booking we
supply a detailed item list. No limit !!!
