Excellent Goose Shooting...
80% of the geese we shoot are ten to twelve pound Canada geese, 20% are Whitefronts. Numbers of both geese are at all time highs and we are looking forward to continued good goose shooting on both fronts. Conditions for local nesting remain excellent.
Excellent Equipment...
We use willow blinds until the birds get shy and swap out the Final Approach Eliminators until the close of the season. We have twelve dozen Big Foots, eight dozen full bodied White fronts and five dozen new Dakota goose decoys to choose from. Equipment hauled to and from shoots in aluminum trailers make getting into the field, setting up and hunting and enjoyable, worry free experience. We use quads to get into fields and potholes surrounded by swath or hard to get at because of mud or terrain. Greenhead gear field and water duck decoys combined with multiple Robo ducks round out a selection of equipment second to none.
Excellent Accommodations...
Stay at Nighthaven Lodge. Three bedrooms set up for double occupancy, two bathrooms with showers and a large common area to relax and kick back in make for a comfortable stay after a long day in the field. Meals are served upstairs in a family atmosphere and watching the odd college football game results in some friendly bantering and camaraderie.
Excellent Staff...
Everyone involved at Boss Guiding/Nighthaven Lodge shares some expertise in our business. Awesome cooks, guides, spotters and drivers are here to serve you.
Excellent Success Rates...
Our goal is to give you an opportunity to shoot a possession limit of ducks and geese during your stay at Nighthaven. This past season was excellent with many groups going home with full possession limits of both Ducks and Geese

Excellent Duck Shooting...
Since the fall of 2010 our duck hunting has been superb. Consisting mostly of mallards, our duck bag may also include pintails, gadwalls, widgeon and some teal. This past year, to our suprise we harvested a wood duck and a black duck. The potholes are full and we are excited about the continued good duck hunting.
Hannu Koivuniemi and his group from Finland have hunted with us for the past seven years. Like many of our groups they return annually. Book your waterfowl hunt today. Phone Bob at 1-403-742-3140
