Craig began hunting at a very young age, learning about the outdoors from his father. He has been hunting and guiding for 28 years and still has sleepless nights before a hunt. His interest in wildlife led him to the College of Natural Resources where he studied Fish and Wildlife. His studies and experience in the outdoors landed him the position of Boat Captain with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources near Kingsville, Ontario – home of the famous Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary. It is here that Craig began to expand his knowledge of hunting and calling waterfowl. Thanks to a few local waterfowlers, Craig’s calling improved and he soon began winning local competitions.

 To date, Craig has won the South Western Goose Calling Championship 3 times, the Canadian Classic 4 times and the Canadian World 3 times, as well as numerous regional contests. He has never placed lower then 2nd in any goose calling competition in Canada and has several top 3 finishes in duck calling. After being retired from most Canadian Competitions by 2001, Craig began calling in the US where his success has continued with numerous top 5 finishes as well as a few wins.
Craig has appeared in hunting magazines, T.V. shows and waterfowl videos, most recently Black Foot Down which was filmed during his stay with St Lawrence Outfitters. His pursuit of waterfowl has taken Craig across many parts of North America, guiding and hunting with friends. In the off season he spends his time training his 2 retrievers, fishing, painting decoys or travelling to calling competitions across North America. His latest project has been the development of a signature series goose call with GK Calls. The “Canuck” is a short hunting call designed to fit the needs of most waterfowlers. Along with his call Craig produced a Short reed goose calling instructional CD “ALL GOOSE” covering everything from the basics to the more advanced sounds.

"Either guiding, filming a hunt or just hunting with my buddies, I rely on my Wad Wizard choke tubes all season long! I've never seen such consistently clean kills and "smack down" patterns in all my years of hunting. Whether it’s my 12 gauge or 20 gauge, all my guns are powered by the "Wizard"."

A few accomplishments include:
3 time Canadian World Goose calling Champion
4 time Canadian Classic Goose calling Champion
Mississippi Valley Open Goose Calling Champion
2 time North American 2 Man Goose Calling Champion
Several other championships and top 5 finishes

"My grandfather introduced me to waterfowl hunting when I was in the 6th grade on his private land bordering the historic Illinois River. Ever since my first experience I was hooked. After years of hunting in Illinois, my pursuit of waterfowl has taken me across the entire state; chasing mallards in the northern most section, all the way to the goose capital of the United States in the southern tip. After hunting for a couple of years, my grandpa gave me one of his calls. I was instantly fascinated with the calling aspect of waterfowl hunting and had a great desire to learn to speak the language. I bought myself a cheap call and a tape and started from there. After countless hours of practice I started to become interested in contest calling and entered my first contest at the age of 15. From the beginning I wanted to be a competitive goose caller, but figured that I would have a brighter future in duck contests. After a couple years of competing in duck contests I began advancing in goose contests as well. Once I started having some success in goose contests, I gave up main street duck calling and switched my focus completely to goose calling.

I am very lucky to have been born and raised in a hunting family in the waterfowl rich Columbia Basin of Washington State. From an early age, hunting waterfowl has always been my main interest. This interest has since turned into a full time job guiding water fowlers from around the country for the last nine years.  I have guided in Washington, Texas and Alberta, Canada, and hunted many other states.  My interest in the calling aspect of waterfowl hunting has also led to me competing in contest calling.  I have traveled all over the country attending waterfowl shows and competing in contests.  I have several top finishes including winning the Washington State Goose Calling Contest in both 2005 and 2008.   A product that has had a great impact on my hunting success is the Wad Wizard choke tube. Since I began using the Supreme several years ago, I have noticed a significant decrease in the number of cripples. When I am guiding I often shoot back up on cripples and the Wad Wizard allows me to knock down birds that otherwise would have been lost. I spend five months a year chasing waterfowl and I am hard on my equipment, and the Wad Wizard® has definitely passed the test. My Wad Wizard® Supreme is an essential piece of my hunting equipment, whether I’m hunting turkeys, geese, ducks or  coyotes; I won’t shoot a gun without one." Email Chad at duckcallinkid@hotmail.com

I was introduced to the sport at an early age and it has consumed every spare moment in my life for the last 21 years. I first tried a Wad Wizard 4 years ago and could not believe the results. I immediately called Lorie and purchased a SWAT Tube. The SWAT tube has not been out of the gun since I got it. From early season honkers in Ontario to the late February season these chokes do exactly what the ad says "Dead Right There. The performance is very consistent and just another tool that I will not go to the field without. I recently took up turkey hunting and the gobbler didn't stand a chance. I got a Supreme tube and now have a gun just for turkey hunting. Wad Wizard is a company that meets all shooters needs from fowl, pheasants, turkeys and even on the trap range; Wad Wizard Choke tubes get it done.

Born and raised in the hardwood region, in the center of the province of Quebec, it is with great pride that I still live there with my family.  I am married for 11 years to my beautiful wife who gave me two daughters and a son. I have over 22 seasons as a waterfowler and I am also a volunteer and committee member of Ducks Unlimited for nearly 21 years.  Over the past ten years I focus mainly on the Canada goose and to some extent, the snow goose.  But I must admit that beautiful big mallards or blacks at the end of the season that flow through my part of the world remind me why I love this sport!  I am most fascinated by the language of these species.  I would not hunt a day without the Wad Wizard Choke Tube in my gun! This is one of the best waterfowl hunting products on the market anywhere. If I can be of assistance to you please contact me at brianbergeron@hotmail.com”
