It's duck hunting in the sea, and it does give you access to some ducks that you won't get hunting near land. I think scoters and eiders are examples of ducks that you can only really get somewhat out in sea (you might be able to get them in a bay). It's in the middle of the water without much of a blind for cover...it's a very odd way of hunting.

ETA: Wiki "seaducks" for a list of ducks. Not all of them are 'exclusive' to the sea though...for example you can get mergansers and goldeneyes near land.

Sounds fun though. Good luck.

Are decoys used? Or just try to find them.

Sounds very interesting. Never heard of that.

I've watched a bunch on tv. They fly pretty low on the water and are fast fast. Most of the shots seem to be passing shots so you better have a quick shoulder for sure. That's gonna be a blast though and you'll shoot some unusual but beautiful birds out there. Keep us posted with pics and good luck.
