I've heard of some people even using Poodles as retrievers for hunting waterfowl.

That's what they was originally breed for.. personally I have a chocolate lab duck dove and deer dog

I'm horribly biased towards labs. Growing up we always had at least one lab running around the house so they'd be my go to breed for a good water dog. My favorite dog we ever had was a chocolate lab that that passed away a few years back at 17 years old. We had to put the poor old man down. Broke my heart.
