Waterfowl HQ
Weather. Gear. Hunt logs. Decoy spreads. Licenses. One headquarters.
Waterfowl HQ brings the tools waterfowl hunters use before, during, and after the hunt into one app—so you can spend less time jumping between apps and more time focused on the hunt.
Own the Hunt.
Built for waterfowl hunters. Built for the hunt.
App Overview
Everything You Need. One Headquarters.
Waterfowl hunting involves more than showing up at the blind.
You’re watching the weather, checking the wind, packing gear, planning your spread, keeping licenses accessible, and trying to remember what worked the last time you hunted that spot.
Waterfowl HQ brings all of it together.
Plan the hunt. Pack with confidence. Track what happened. Save what worked. Come back better prepared next time.
Plan Smarter
Check hunting conditions, monitor the wind, review Waterfowl Activity, and build your decoy spread before you head out.
Stay Prepared
Organize your gear, build custom checklists, track maintenance, and keep your hunting licenses accessible.
Remember the Hunt
Record locations, weather, birds harvested, hunting partners, photos, notes, ratings, and the details you’ll want to remember next season.

DECOY SPREAD PLANNER
Build the Spread Before You Build It in the Field.
Plan your setup using ducks, geese, spinners, blinds, boats, crop rows, trees, water areas, wind direction, and waterfowl flight paths.
Move, rotate, resize, and organize your spread exactly how you want it. One symbol can represent a single item or an entire group using quantity badges.
Save multiple spreads, add custom notes, continue editing later, and share your spread with hunting partners.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does Waterfowl HQ require an account?
No. Waterfowl HQ does not currently require a Waterfowl HQ account to use the app.
Can I protect Waterfowl HQ with Face ID?
Yes. Waterfowl HQ includes an optional App Lock that uses your device authentication to help protect access to the app.
Can I save more than one decoy spread?
Yes. Create and save multiple spreads, give them custom names, add notes, reopen them for editing, and share them with other hunters.
Can I create different Gear Checklists?
Yes. Create multiple named checklists for different hunts, locations, setups, boats, seasons, or hunting partners.
Should I rely on Waterfowl HQ for severe weather or emergency alerts?
No. Waterfowl HQ is a planning tool. Always rely on official weather sources, emergency alerts, hunting regulations, and your own judgment in the field.
What is the science behind Waterfowl Activity?
Waterfowl Activity analyzes weather, migration timing, wind, temperature changes, freezing conditions, snow, and larger patterns across the U.S. and Canadian migration corridor to estimate how favorable conditions are for bird movement.
How accurate is Waterfowl Activity?
It’s an informed estimate, not a guarantee. Weather and migration data can help predict movement, but hunting pressure, food, habitat, water levels, and other local factors can still change what birds actually do.
Is Waterfowl HQ available on Android?
Waterfowl HQ is launching first on iPhone. Android is not available at launch.
