Trophy Tundra Swan Hunts

GGS Outfitters has a 100% success rate on Swan hunts. We carry out Swan hunts December through January over super magnum decoys in winter wheat fields near Lake Mattamuskeet, home to thousands of wintering Tundra Swans. A lottery system is in place for swan permits through the N.C . Wildlife Resources Commission with approximately 5000-6500 permits available annually. You typically must apply between July through October 1st and the cost is $10.00. If selected, the permit allows for taking only one swan per year.

Please call to book your hunt. You must have a valid and current NC Swan Permit to book a Tundra Swan Hunt with GGS Outfitters.
