Hunting on Newfoundland
Moose hunting on Newfoundland begins in early September and continues to the end of November. To make the most of the short hunting season the outfitter operates 7 remote hunting lodges and a number of spike- and tented camps. For this reason it is possible to enjoy successful hunts throughout the season.
This hunting tour stretches over 7 days, and includes 6 days hunting, from Monday to Saturday (Hunting is not allowed on Sundays here on Newfoundland). If possible it is best if hunters arrive on a Sunday, when they will be met at the airport by our outfitter, who will then bring them to a nearby hotel. The following morning you will continue on to the hunting camp where you will be based by helicopter or float plane. After breakfast/lunch you will begin the hunt.
Typically you will see moose every day during the hunt (depending on the weather conditions) and a diligent hunter should find it possible to shoot a handsome bull with in a couple of days.
All hunting is carried out with 2:1 guiding, which is to say there will be one guide with 2 hunters. If you prefer to hunt with your own individual guide it is possible to arrange 1:1 guiding on payment of a supplement. The outfitters fine reputation and the game-rich hunting districts they offer has attracted some of the best hunting guides and staff to work with them - some with over 30 years of experience.
After flying to the town of Deer Lake on Newfoundland, via Toronto, our outfitter advises all hunters to stay in a hotel in Deer Lake both before and after the hunt. This not only enables you to rest after the long flight, but it helps ensure you will be back in Deer Lake in good time for your flight home.

Day 0: Arrival at Deer Lake and overnight in a hotel near the airport.
Day 1: Pick-up from the hotel and transfer to the hunting camp by helicopter or float plane - settle into the camp, breakfast/lunch, then start the hunt.
