Full description and what we offer
Prairie Waterfowl Co. operates across nearly 1 million huntable acres in Tofield, Alberta—right in the bottleneck of the Pacific, Central, and Mississippi flyways during fall migration. Owner and head guide Willi Powell built this operation from the ground up, starting as a biology student in Ontario before moving to Alberta in 2014 to pursue waterfowl outfitting full-time.
Waterfowl season runs fall migration when Alberta hosts snow geese, Ross geese, greater white fronted geese (specks), Canada geese, mallards, pintails, and diving ducks. Daily bag limits are generous: 8 dark geese, 8 ducks, and 50 snow geese per day.
Hunts take place from layout blinds or A-frame style blinds over scouted feed fields of barley, wheat, or peas. Spreads include ultra-realistic full-body decoys and silhouette decoys to increase numbers. Morning hunts start before sunrise, with afternoons in different fields based on scout intelligence. Expect whirling flocks of mallards and pintails responding to guide calling and gun dog work.

Willi Powell earned his Bachelor of Science in Honours Biology and spent five years with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources before moving to Alberta. He's a Registered Professional Biologist in multiple Canadian provinces, bringing deep knowledge of waterfowl behavior, species-specific feeding patterns, and agricultural practices to every hunt. His biology background translates directly to hunting success—understanding what ducks eat, where they bed, and how they move under pressure.
"Hunting with Prairie Waterfowl Co. is not all about the piles on the ground or shooting the limit (although we are pretty dang good at it). Everything about our operation is designed to provide a carefree, fun filled outfitting experience."
