Bird Hunting in Saskatchewan

If you are an avid waterfowl hunter in search of greater Canada geese and massive numbers of Mallards and Pintails; or just want to have an experience of a lifetime, you will not find a better outfitter than RJM Guiding.  While the location and timing of your hunt are important; there is no replacement for consistent scouting, quality guiding, and top of the line equipment.  I have waterfowl hunted Canada since 1994, from Alberta east all the way to Manitoba; but nowhere have all critical elements of great waterfowl hunting come together (day in and day out, year after year); like they do at RJM Guiding out of Saskatchewan.  Having been born and raised in the area, Ryan and Brad know the land, the land owners, and the pattern of the waterfowl. They have invested in the best equipment: full motion / full flocked decoys and terrific layout blinds.  For each hunt they are experts in bringing together all critical elements to ensure success; all you need is your gun, shells, and boots.

I have been working and hunting in Alberta and Saskatchewan. for twenty years. My experience with Ryan Marsh, RJM Outfitters is as good as it gets. He runs a top notch hunt and all of his guides give you a 110%. I hope to work with and hunt with RJM Outfitting for many years to come. I cant wait to return to see those birds in your face and the awesome words.  TAKE M BOYS.

I wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed hunting with you last season.  As you may know, I have been hunting all over Canda for over 20 years.  I spend 90+ days a year hunting waterfowl in the USA, Canada and So. America, since retiring in 2000.

I am always looking for and hunting with new outfitters each year, as I work with a major booking agent here in the USA.  I evaluate new outfitters for myself and the booking agent, just in case they are looking to upgrade or add another excellent partner for thier clientele.

I can honestly say that your operation really impressed me and our group of hunters.  Your gear and equipment ( F/A blinds, Dakota decoys) were first class.  Your calling, world class and your scouting was perfect and your attention to detail was impeccable.  The Ramada Inn accommodations and food was very good.

It is rare to find any body as passionate about waterfowling as I am.  However, your passion clearly motivates you towards excellence.

The best reference I can give you is, we will be returning in 2010 to hunt with you for 12 days with 8 hunters per day.  This is my groups of hunters who have hunted extensively throughout the USA, Canada, Africa, South and Central America.

We can't wait for the hunt to begin.

Kindest Personal Regards,

Just a note to say thanks for a fabulous hunt. I have hunted waterfowl all over the U.S.A and Canada and have found your operation to be among the top. You have top notch equipment and your calling ranks with the best of them. You did a great job of scouting and put us on birds every time. It is great to hunt with a guide that has as much enthusiasm and dedication to waterfowl hunting as I do! Looking forward to our return trip this fall with much anticipation.

Ryan,

I wanted to take this time to send you and your entire staff a HUGE kudos.  I am still somewhat new to waterfowl hunting as I have only been hunting for about five years.  Canada is the Mecca of waterfowl hunting and should be on every hunters bucket list. 

You and your staff are first class in every way.  The time and effort you put in by scouting is second to none.  Your staff beats the pavement all day to ensure that your hunters have successful trips each hunt.  Your knowledge of the entire area is unparalleled the way you and your staff make every person feel important is service that you cannot get anywhere else.  You have upped the bar for all guiding and outfitting companies in business.  Whether I look for a hunting or fishing guide in Texas or any other location, I will use RJM Guiding & Outfitting as a benchmark on how to rate them. 

From the accommodations to the quality of your blinds and decoys to the ability of the guides to call and work the birds, there is no stone left unturned when it comes to providing a first class service.  From my initial contact with you via email and telephone when shopping for the outfitter we wanted to use to the final goodbye, you made sure we knew what we were getting, and you went out of your way to make sure all of our questions and concerns were answered.

A huge thanks to RJM Guiding & Outfitting.  A trip to Saskatchewan is going to be on my to-do list every year from now on and our outfitter will always be RJM Guiding & Outfitting.  We are even hoping to book a bear hunt in the spring.  Two thumbs up and a grade of A+ is deserved.

Ryan is great guide who really puts you on the birds. His guides and gear are top-quality, giving you a great shoot every time. The trip is unbelievable, with limits hit within 20 minutes on some days!  I highly recommend RJM guiding if you are looking for a great time and a great hunt; they are a great bunch of helpful and friendly guys who make this annual trip worthwhile every time I come.

Ryan,

I just wanted to thank you and your team of waterfowl hunting professionals for a great trip. I have traveled to Canada several times over the 25+ years I have been waterfowl hunting and never experienced a finer trip.  Even in the middle of the “duck factory” putting a great hunt together takes effort and a knowledgeable team with all the tools to make it happen.  You guys came through big time, and put us on the X every hunt.  My gun isn’t even unpacked yet and I’m already looking forward to my next trip with you.

Thanks again,
Daniel B Barney MD

I look forward to a hunting trip all year and this was just what I was looking for. The birds flock to us like the salmon of Capastrana. The guides were top notch with the best gear. Marsh is running a very successful guide outfit. I can’t wait to come back.

The entire staff at RJM was superb. These guys are great hunters, and they are fun to be with. They were able to accommodate our small group which made our hunt even more personalized and special.

It was a great hunt. Ryan has surrounded himself with people who care and enjoy what they are doing. The number of birds is incredible. There is no reason why a person shouldn’t shoot his limit of birds everyday. Everybody involved in Ryan’s guide service has a lot of knowledge.

RJM – Having spent the last 25 yrs hunting as much as humanly possible, I believed I have has some great hunts. The bar has now been raised, the crew/decoys/hunting were all first class. As long as my dad and I are welcome to return we definitely would return.  Thank you

Ryan and his staff work very hard locating birds and put the hunters on the X spot. I hunt 90 – 100 days/year and nobody demonstrates a greater passion for water fowling than Ryan. His enthusiasm is contagious. His equipment and gear excellent and the hunting was terrific.
Thanks to you & your guys for another great trip – see you next season.

My Brother & I went w/ Ryan & his crew in 2009, needless to say we had an unbelievable time. We had such an amazing time we brought a group of 12 people. We realized it may be hard to get enough shooting for so many people but for RJM. We were able to shoot limits of honkers & ducks 2 mornings in a row & had a shoot clean up the third night. It was the most phenomenal hunting I have had from Canada to Mexico. My hat goes off to Ryan & his crew he’s not only a great outfitter but a great friend. I will be back for yrs. To come

Ryan;
Thank you for providing four quality people to scout for fields to hunt and actually take the hunters. Your ability to scout for birds with so many people ensures a tremendous amount of action.

RJM Outfitters is the best hunting in Canada; it just does not get any better. The guides are the friendliest guys you will ever want to hunt with. The Canadian residents are so friendly they always make us feel so welcome. I enjoy hunting in Saskatchewan so much. I will be back.

Our hunt was amazing. Everything from calling to management to location was well thought out and efficiently executed. Our guides were professional and skilled. Those attributes combined with a consecutive limit. Filling days made for an epic hunt that will not be soon forgotten.
