Waterfowl
Waterfowl hunting at Rawhiti is a seasonal highlight that perfectly complements our big game and fishing. With private wetlands, river margins and open high country, hunters enjoy mallards, paradise ducks and impressive Canada geese in a low-pressure environment that ensures plentiful opportunities.
Set against a dramatic high-country backdrop, a morning over decoys on the Taieri wetlands is the perfect way to round out a Rawhiti adventure — great shooting, great dogs and great company.
A Morning on the Wetlands
Over the Decoys
With private wetlands and river margins across the estate, Rawhiti offers relaxed, productive waterfowl shooting for mallards, paradise ducks and Canada geese. The low-pressure environment means birds work well and opportunities are plentiful.
Good dogs, comfortable hides and a stunning high-country setting make for a memorable morning afield — the ideal complement to a big-game hunt or a day on the trout water.

The game bird season runs from May, offering some of the finest waterfowl shooting in the South. A game bird licence is required and easily arranged — just let us know and we'll help you plan the perfect wingshooting day.
