Kick off waterfowl season in Northeast Arkansas with our Early Season Specklebelly Goose Hunts at The Mallard's Nest. Timed around the arrival of migrating white-fronted geese, this hunt offers fast-paced action and the chance to target one of the most sought-after goose species in North America.
Our guides scout daily to stay on fresh birds and changing feed patterns, ensuring hunters are set up in the best locations possible. Hunts take place over private agricultural fields that consistently attract large numbers of specklebelly geese during the early migration period.
After the hunt, enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of The Mallard's Nest. From home-cooked meals and comfortable accommodations to great stories shared around the lodge, this is the kind of authentic duck camp experience that keeps hunters coming back year after year.
