Welcome
Netley-Libau Marsh
The marsh is located just north of Selkirk, Manitoba
on the south end of Lake Winnipeg where the Red River
enters the Lake.
Netley-Libau Marsh has always been a Mecca for the
waterfowler, from the First Nation Peoples that hunted
and trapped this marsh for their livelihood, to the
market hunter who hunted ducks and geese to sell all
over the world at the turn of century, to today's sportsman
who hunts merely to enjoy a day out in the marsh. This
marsh is a very special place to those that love it.
