It is your responsibility to e-mail me back as soon as you receive my e-mail confirmation verifying that the information containted in it is correct.

THINGS TO BRING

Shotgun not larger than 10 gauge plugged to a three-shell capacity, shotgun shells (50 rounds per each hunter) loaded with steel shot in either shot size of BB, 1, 2 or 4 (bismuth-tin and tungsten-iron are also approved), camo clothing, rain gear (camo color poncho). Bring an alarm clock with you, a flashlight or better yet the type you attach to your head and foam ear plugs for the airboat ride (airboats are loud). Zip-Lock freezer size bags are handy for storing shells and keeping your hunting license, cell phone and other items dry. Bug spray, canteen of drinking water, chest high waders and a folding seat to sit on. Because a hunter's hands and face can give him away immediately, camo gloves and a face mask, or cold-cream-based paints are a necessity. Shiny gun barrels need to be camo tape wrapped. A shiny gun barrel is the number one cause of ducks spotting a hunter and not coming near or into the decoys.

Chest Waders

You will need chest waders. If you don't have them each person can rent a pair with adjustable shoulder suspenders for $10.00 per each morning of duck hunting and/or each afternoon of duck hunting.
You must notify me if you want to rent waders.

Battery Operated Decoy

Other them standard decoys which we provide free of charge a party has the option to rent per each hunt one Mojo type battery operated decoy that includes batteries for $10.00 per each morning of duck hunting and/or each afternoon of duck hunting. There is no question that these type of decoys bring ducks in.
You must notify me if you want to rent one of these decoys.
See Mojo type battery operated decoy in photo below

Floating Tote Sled

A floating tote sled with a poly tow rope attached that is 48 inches long by 25 inches wide and 6 inches deep can also be rented for $5.00 per each morning of duck hunting and/or each afternoon of duck hunting. This sled will hold a duck hunters rucksack, gun, decoys, shells, etc.
You must notify me if you want to rent a tote sled.

You must notify me if you want to rent a folding seat.

HUNTING LICENSE

A Florida Hunting License, Florida Duck Stamp, Migratory Bird Permit and Federal Duck Stamp are required to hunt ducks in Florida. Resident hunting license cost is $12.50. Nonresident 10 day Hunting License cost is $46.50. Florida Duck Stamp cost is $3.00. The Migratory Bird Permit is issued free of charge.

This year's Federal Duck Stamp which will cost you $15.00 can only be purchased at a U.S. Post Office or Wal-Mart.

Children under the age of 16, supervised by an adult 18 years of age or older are exempt from hunting license, Migratory Bird Permit, Florida Waterfowl permit, and Federal Duck Stamp requirements.

Hunter Safety Mentoring Exemption

Effective Aug. 1, 2006, anyone 16 years or older and born after May 31, 1975 can hunt under the supervision of a licensed hunter, 21 or older, without having to complete the state’s hunter safety certification.
The newly established “Hunter Safety Mentoring Exemption” enables those persons to purchase a Florida hunting license and hunt during a one-year trial basis.
The new mentoring exemption was passed by the Florida Legislature to help persuade more people to experience hunting. It is designed to encourage experienced hunters to teach novice hunters about safety, ethics, wildlife, hunting skills and respect for Florida’s outdoors.
Until now, everyone 16 or over, and born after May 31, 1975, needed to complete the hunter safety requirement before they were allowed to buy a hunting license.
“This should be a great incentive for getting more people to give hunting a try, and hopefully, we can hook some of these folks on the hunting tradition,” said Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission hunter safety coordinator Bill Cline. “If a novice hunter enjoys the sport, we hope they take the hunter safety course and continue the experience for years to come.”
Individuals taking advantage of this try-before-you-buy approach would have to take and pass a hunter safety class to be eligible to purchase a hunting license and hunt the following year.

It would be a good idea to print the above from the FWC web page in the event when you purchase a hunting license the seller of the license is not aware of the new law exemption.
