Manitoba Moose, Bear & Fishing Combo
Come and join us for some of the most exciting big game hunting in North America!! Feel the excitement as your guide calls and rakes the brush. Suddenly you hear a distant reply. Your heart pounds as you listen to him grunt and make his way toward you. Suddenly the moose appears and you wait for him to present the perfect angle for a shot. As long as your hand is steady and your aim is true you will be rewarded with the trophy of a lifetime!
Our Moose Hunts start at the float plane base in Thompson Manitoba where you will board a flight north to one of our outpost camps on one of the many lakes in our outfitting territory.
Our hunts are scheduled to take advantage of the peak rutting time of moose in our area. For that reason, we only have the following dates available for 2024:
ALL PRICES IN USD - 2024
1:1 guiding - $16,000 per person
2:1 hunts are available for $13,000 per person.
What’s Included
Payment Terms
Guests will be allowed a TOTAL luggage allowance of 50 pounds which may include:
Commercial airlines require hard sided cases. We will have a secure location for storing these cases during your trip. Please refrain from bringing hard suitcases. Space is at a premium on charter flights into camp and soft duffels take up less space and are easier to compress. You must wear your full hunting gear for the charter flights to and from camp. We do have secure storage facilities to store any excess luggage, clothing and your hard bow or gun cases.
Weapons
Note: Archery and firearm targets will be set up at camp.
Rifle
Most shots will be under 100 yards, but shots of 200-300 yards may occur. We suggest flat shooting cartridges of .270 and up, with .300 calibers preferred. Bullets should be well constructed and no less than 130 grains. We recommend 2 boxes (40 rounds) of shells.
Muzzle Loader
We welcome black powder hunters. For those flying, it may be difficult to get black powder or primers on commercial airlines. Please give us 60 days in order to pre-purchase these items for you. We recommend a minimum .50 caliber muzzle loader for moose hunting.
Archery
If you are thinking of bringing a bow, please do. Moose are susceptible to calling and a close-range encounter is definitely possible. We recommend you practice and feel comfortable at up to 50 yards. We also suggest bringing 8 arrows with broadheads for your trip.
Fishing
As with all of our adventures, fishing is included. We recommend bringing a medium/heavy action rod for pike/trout fishing, and/or an extra light setup for grayling (ask what fish are available at the lake you’ll be at). A small tackle box with a few lures will be sufficient. Five of Diamonds, Red Devil, and Rapala crank baits will work for northern pike. For grayling, #0 and #00 Mepps Panther Martin and other mini spoons will work. Licenses will be available at camp.
