Highlights of The legacy hunt
Ray's airboat hunts stand out for their unique approach to waterfowl hunting, combining the excitement of high-speed travel across shallow waterways with strategic hunting positions that other guides can't access. The November timing for our hunt proved perfect, as we caught the mallards during their seasonal movement period when they're most active in Florida's southern waterways.
The spot-and-stalk techniques Ray employs are particularly effective in this terrain, allowing us to move quietly into position using the natural cover along Butler Beach. His deep knowledge of waterfowl patterns in this specific ecosystem meant we were consistently in prime shooting positions as birds moved between feeding and roosting areas. The combination of airboat mobility and Ray's understanding of local wildlife behavior creates hunting opportunities you simply won't find with standard outfitters.
Local Game Insights
Florida City's unique wetland terrain creates perfect habitat for mallards, especially during the fall migration period. These birds favor the shallow, vegetation-rich areas accessible by airboat, where they feed on abundant aquatic plants and small invertebrates. November brings ideal hunting conditions as cooler temperatures push birds south, increasing local populations substantially. Ray focuses on specific channels and vegetation edges where mallards naturally congregate throughout the day.
The hunting experience combines traditional pass shooting with more active spot-and-stalk approaches, adapting to daily bird movement patterns. Butler Beach's mixed habitat of open water, emergent vegetation, and protected coves provides multiple hunting scenarios within a single trip. For hunters seeking both waterfowl and deer, this diverse ecosystem supports healthy populations of white-tailed deer that use the same waterway edges for travel corridors and feeding areas.
Plan Your Hunting Trip Day
Your airboat hunt with Ray Chaters includes all necessary transportation, hunting gear, and safety equipment. The custom airboat comfortably accommodates up to 3 hunters plus your guide, with secure gun mounts and stable shooting platforms. Hunts typically begin in the early morning to catch peak animal activity, though afternoon sessions are also productive during certain seasonal patterns.
Weather-appropriate clothing is essential, as conditions can range from cool mornings to warm afternoons during fall hunts. Ray provides detailed pre-trip information about conditions and recommended personal items. The airboat hunting experience offers a unique combination of fast-paced travel to remote locations and patient, strategic hunting techniques once on site. This approach maximizes your hunting opportunities while experiencing Florida's wild backcountry in a way few visitors ever see.
