    Anyone hunt Tuckamoor Lodge in New Foundland?

    I cant comment on the hunting at Tuckamoor or the moose population. And this may be 100% useless info to you. But their nephew is one of the float pilots I use for my fly-in moose camps in Alberta. And he is about as standup / scholar of a gentlemen you could ever meet. So if his Aunt and Uncle...

    Building a Crate

    I will check my notebook at home and get you some measurements. I shipped a 48" bull from Alberta to Montreal Quebec. **Sorry just re read and noticed your looking for a generic size. I have never built a generic box, I build them custom for each euro mount**

    7-08 Alberta moose

    I definitely think shot placement with a quality bullet is a lot more important than magnum rifles. Id personally rather see a client bring a 308 win shooting a 165gr Partition/Accubond/TTSX/Interlock (any premium bullet) And have that hunter be able to put one good shot in the boiler room than...

    B.C black bear in 2024, flying with meat, hide, and skull?

    I send lots of bear hides back with clients and lots of moose and moose meat. Firstly no checked baggage can weigh more than 60lbs with either Air Canada or West Jet. You must have your tag and paper portion of the license as well. Obviously the baggage cant leak. For our moose camp we skin...

    Have you been on a great hunt?

    My apologies I thought you were looking for a guided hunt. I really cant comment much on the DIY Alaska game. I have had numerous clients that have hunted with me do drop camps in Alaska and the general consensus is the costs of the drop camp hunt are about the same costs as my guided hunt. Keep...

    Have you been on a great hunt?

    6K is a pretty low end moose hunt in my opinion. I wouldnt expect much for that price.

    What should a guided hunt be?

    First off I cannot even fathom not hunting the mornings. My guides are on the lake calling before the hunters are even awake, an hour before daylight. Than coffee is on, breakfast cooked etc. I am very sorry to hear this. Unfortunately like any industry there is good and bad. I agree 100% the...

    Hahaha fun and games in the north. In all honesty I had two beauties from Denver I was guiding for a 9 day hunt. They were younger and packed as much meat as me. We killed two beauty bulls, one on day 2 and one on day 5. Couple of gems, were still buddies to this day. But yes, a 12ft boat and a...

    Definitely not 50". I have used a scapula, but usually just use a paddle or like other guys have mentioned plastic. One thing I like to do when hunting lakes is call in bays before dark or first thing in the morning, than return later in the day or the next day and call again. Lots of my...

    BC Moose meat to US

    You guys travelling through Alberta could check with Talon Distributing in Edmonton. Last I heard there was still no option for the boned out meat, just the antlers and cape but maybe that has changed in the last month or so.
