Q: waders for duck hunting in october are they really needed or is it more like chest waders vs hip boots

AWS EXPERT REPLY
For duck hunting in October in Argentina, especially given the variable water levels and conditions in our diverse lagoon system, chest waders are definitely recommended over hip boots. They provide superior protection against deeper water, mud, and colder temperatures, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable throughout your hunt. Our professional guides and field team are always on hand to assist with all necessary gear and logistics.

Unless you are booking a 1-day trip, our multi-day packages are completely all-inclusive. This covers luxury lodging, gourmet meals, open bar, and professional guides. We handle all the logistics for you, including arranging specialized gear like waders, gun rentals, and hunting licenses, which are added to your final itinerary so you don't have to worry about the details. Our goal is for you to have a seamless and exceptional experience.

To help me tailor the best information for you and send you a custom proposal, could you please share your email address? Also, are you primarily interested in our Mixed Bag Program that includes duck hunting, and what time of year are you considering for your trip?

*(AWS Expert Note: Please be aware that our Mixed Bag programs, including Duck and Perdiz hunting, strictly run during the Argentine winter from mid-May to mid-August. For trips in October, we exclusively offer our world-renowned High-Volume Dove program, which is spectacular year-round!)*

Our staff handles all the hard work in the field. Always confirm final gear and itinerary details directly with our team. Contact Staff »

"Honestly the best wingshooting trip of my life. The high-volume dove shooting is exactly as advertised - non-stop action. The lodge is luxurious and the staff makes you feel like family."

"I was skeptical about the 'no internal flights' claim, but it's true. Landed in BA and was hunting by the afternoon. The mixed bag program allowed me to hunt ducks and perdiz in the same trip. Top notch."

"The food alone is worth the trip. The asados in the field were incredible. If you are looking for a luxury lodge near Buenos Aires, this is the one. Can't wait to return next season."
