Snow Goose hunting is what we’re known for at La Cache Outfitters. Quebec, is the largest staging areas in the world for Greater Snow Geese. With access to thousands of acres of prime land, the waterfowl hunting you will experience here is unmatched with any other part of the world.
Snow goose hunting is very much detail oriented
There are a lot of different factors that draw success in snow goose hunting and it takes a lot to make it happen with consistency. We can’t always control how it’s gonna go, we can’t guarantee 100 bird days but we will control everything in our power to do what we can to get you those unforgettable hunts. Our trusted hunting locations are always pre-scouted for better hunting opportunities.
Fall Snow’s
During the fall our Greater Snow Goose hunts take place in the center of the most important fall staging area in Quebec. Thousands of birds, combined with thousands of acres of food, make the agricultural fields of central Quebec the perfect place to hunt Greater Snow Geese. La Cache Outfitters has exclusive access to the best private fields of this vast staging and feeding area. You will have the chance to see the sky covered with endless flocks of snow geese.
The quality of each hunt is ensured by daily scouting. We enjoy very high success rates, which our repeat clients can attest to, because we are mobile. We hunt where the birds are; not where they were last week or last year. Waterfowl hunting is all about preparation and good location.

Spring Snow Goose
When spring arrives the Greater Snow Geese begin their reverse migration along the St. Lawrence River Valley. The geese travel different routes in the spring within the migration corridor of the St. Lawrence River Valley. They focus on different food sources and staging areas vs. the fall. Therefore our hunting locations change and move with them throughout the spring. We start in Baie-Du-Febvre moving east through Montmagny and L’Isle-Verte tracking the migration.
Each spring, Quebec places a conservation order for harvesting greater snow geese. This order is designed to increase harvest of these birds in the Atlantic Flyway. The spring conservation snow goose season start March first.
Spring snow goose hunting in Québec
Each year the migration timing and speed changes slightly so we adapt and change with it. Hunts take place on scouted sites identified the day before. La Cache also has exclusive permanent hunting sites between Quebec City and Cap Tourmente, which is a major spring flight corridor. These selective permanent sites have pit blinds which guarantee a comfortable quality hunt sheltered from the spring weather. Having multiple permanent sites allows for us to move and rotate hunt locations based on winds, tides and recent bird activities. Using a smaller spread on X field or permanent spread in prime migrations funnels, we change up our hunting tactics as needed.
Greater Spring Snow Goose hunting can be difficult but with the right guides, locations, equipment and scouting we have been very successful which our clients will attest to. However the Spring hunt is a lot of fun and it’s a great time to get out hunting during the off season. It’s a great sight to see thousands of Snows as well as endless Canada Geese and ducks. Snow’s are also a lot of fun to watch work the decoys. They work much differently than Canada Geese and when the shooting is good it’s a very rewarding hunt.
Spring snow goose hunting in Québec can be very exciting and rewarding. We hunt Greater snow geese around many waterfowl refuges in the narrow St. Lawrence corridor through which the entire world population migrates. You will have the opportunity to hunt snow geese on the last leg of their spring migration. Much more relaxed and in a breeding mind, this makes them very susceptible to decoy better. Spring snow goose hunts run April 1st – May 22nd as this is the prime time in our area. This is a great opportunity for waterfowl hunters not to wait for the fall hunting season to roll around.
Hunting locations
- South shore of the St-Lawrence River, from Baie-Du-Febvre to L’Isle-Verte, April first – May 22th
- Côte-de-Beaupré & L’île d’Orléans, April first – May 22th
Duck
We offer multiple types of duck hunts depending on recent bird activity and the preferences of our clients. Options include the Victoriaville for a field hunt for mallards or on the Côte-de-Beaupré for a tidal water hunt on the banks of the majestic St. Lawrence River. When we go duck hunting on the flats, we don’t book species specific hunts. We can hunt Mallards, Pintails, Blacks, Teal, Blue Bills and Wood Ducks, depending on the time of the year.
To extend the season, La Cache also organizes late season ducks hunts in eastern Ontario. These take place once the weather has turned cold and concentrated the birds on the few remaining food sources and open water areas. These hunts are typically for mallards, blacks and whistlers.
CANADA GOOSE
Our Canada Goose hunts are mainly carried out in the agricultural fields of north & central Quebec. We have access to thousands of acres of prime goose hunting land. Each hunt takes place on a freshly scouted new field. This ensures our clients will be hunting a field visited by a large number of birds the morning of their hunt. We know the importance of a team effort when it come to waterfowl hunting. Our guides take care of the little details and work together to stay ahead of the migration patterns.

Change of Canada Goose Limits
The daily limit for Canada geese is two for the period of September 26th to October 31st. This includes Lac Saint Jean as well as the Victoriaville region. The preseason, September 6th to the 25th the limit remains at 10 birds and 5 birds from the first of November until December 21st.
During the period of the two bird limits, we will continue to offer a mixed hunt (duck and Canada geese or Snow geese and Canada geese), the goal being to obtain a similar number of opportunities as a standard Canada goose hunt. There will also be special pricing to those who would like to reserve a Canada goose hunt during the period of September 26th to October 31st.
During our main period of snow geese hunting (November), we will be holding a number of dates which will be available for hunters who wish to pursue Canada geese when the limits return to 5 birds per day.
During the fall, we are hunting up north around the Lac-Saint-Jean. This is the first major migratory halt for the Snow’s and Canada’s south of the Northern Boreal forest. As always, we will also run hunts from September 6th to December in Victoriaville. This is where our new hunting lodge is located. Few pits blind well located in prime hunting fly way are also available for afternoon hunts.
