"Eric is one of the most dedicated waterfowl hunters in the Northwest and everything you could hope for in a hunting guide. He scouts almost non-stop, networks with hunters, farmers and ranchers to secure the very best properties, and constantly refines his hunting and calling skills. Add to this a super hard-working ethic and a genuine desire to make sure everyone has a great time, and you have a recipe for a great hunt!As a former Willamette Valley goose hunting guide myself, it also means alot to me to know that Eric places a high value on taking care of the properties he hunts, the people he hunts with, and most importantly, the wild resource itself."
Sincerely,
Dave Smith (Founder of Dave Smith Decoys)
"I have hunted waterfowl and wild turkeys with Eric Strand from the time he began hunting waterfowl and wild turkeys. I have watched him develop into a first class hunter, hunting guide, caller, scout, conservationist and customer service oriented businessman. His desire to provide a high quality hunting experience is proven time after time by his successful results in the field and his growing roster of repeat customers."

I have known Eric Strand personally and professionally for almost a decade. He has always been eager to learn, and passionate about his pursuits. I've never met anyone so eager in the pursuit of knowledge and skill, and so adept to achieving excellence! As a waterfowler, he is extremely detail oriented, thorough, attentive, and hard working. When you book a hunt, you want to get more out of it than just some birds to take home. With Eric, you'll get a level of enlightenment from your experience that few can match.
