For a waterfowl and quail hunt that leaves both barrels smoking, head south to Mexico. With a little preplanning, you can drive or fly to productive hunting areas, enjoy first-class accommodations and food and use shotguns provided by your outfitter. Specifically, duck and bobwhite quail hunting have compelled me to return time and time again to the fertile farmlands, freshwater lakes and coastal lagoons of Tamaulipas, where quality hunting is available just south of the border.
