If you're the type of waterfowler who craves new experiences, then open water layout hunting is for you!

Outside of a true sinkbox, there is no better way to fool ducks all season long! Boat blinds and scissor-rigs may fool 'em early, but come late season even the dumbest duck knows a bushy blob in the middle of open water is to be avoided! Layout hunting not only puts you in the mix, but right in their faces! 

By having the largest fleet, safest, best-built boats - both single and two-person Core Sound Layout Boats, coupled with the newest Tanglefree decoys and the most experienced layout guides in North Carolina - our #1 goal is putting you "in" the birds!  Equally as important is to be able to do it in safety and comfort! Ideal conditions for layouts generally includes waves and wind, but on top of "fetching" your birds - your guide will be keeping a constant eye on sea and weather conditions, making immediate changes if warranted. If you have never hunted layouts for sea ducks or divers - your guides will provide you with the knowledge to make your hunt both enjoyable and successful. 

We recognize, and can appreciate that there's other guides with a layout boat or two - but, it takes a major investment of both time and money to truly run a dedicated layout boat operation. We don't just have one or two boats, and then expect our clients to ride in the tender or sit on the bank until it's their turn. We know that your leisure time is too limited and too important to waste!

              If you are up to the challenge, and want to experience true layout hunting at it's finest - give us a call today!
