The weather is usually very pleasant in September and October but some mornings can be quite cold. Temps range from 75 F to 40 F.

It may snow in October but more likely in November and December. One should be prepared for winter weather after approximately November 1st when temperatures can be 10 F and colder.

Hunting in winter conditions can be pleasant so long as one is properly dressed, and the necessary equipment is available.

I can help you with all the paperwork for entering into Canada. It is not difficult at all and the gun declaration form is only $25. What is important is that you have all the paperwork ready before you arrive at customs. Taking home game is also easy and we take care of packaging it in the appropriate way. You can bring 200 rounds of ammo per hunter.

Frequently asked Questions

Do we need to clean our birds?
No, we will breast and freeze your birds as part of your hunting package.

What size shot? How many?
Call us and we can talk specifics.

Do you have to hunt with strangers?
When hunting from boats or for big game, no you do not.

When hunting field geese, we may set up 2 groups on the same decoys but only if the particular set up allows and the number of hunters is small. We make sure all shooting zones, and Safe practices are followed by all.

How many hunters per boat?
2 shooters per boat

What about only 1 Waterfowl hunter?
We sell our Duck hunts based on 2 hunters per boat for obvious safety reasons. We will set up on ground blinds with 3 hunters/guide.

Ideally even number groups work the best, ie: 2,4,6,8,10,, but we can accommodate single hunters for a small surcharge. Contact me for details.

What is the limit on Redheads and Canvasbacks?
No species restrictions here! Full limits of any species.

Do we share accommodations or restrooms/showers?
No. All groups have their own cabins with full bathrooms.

After I shoot a bear, what do I do then?
You can take advantage of our beautiful relaxing scenery and go on a hike. Hunt grouse, go fishing or tag along with a guide on your buddies hunt.

If I wound an animal, is my hunt over?
Not if you followed our ethic rules, sighted in your gun upon arrival, and helped us make a very large effort to find the wounded animal. I must mention that the hunters attitude plays a big role in our decision to continue the hunt. Some places charge an extra fee to hunt after wounding an animal, not us, we are not about that and we don't sell animals, we sell hunts. So practice and know your gun, take your time and shoot within your abilities and we should have no worries.

Rules

We try to run the most ethical and legal Lodge in all respects and ask you to follow our few rules.

Alcohol is not permitted while hunting or immediately before the hunt. Once the hunt is over and the guns packed up, you are more than welcome to refresh your thirst.

Our Guides do not shoot with you or carry firearms into the field. (only on bear hunts)

All reasonable efforts will be made to retrieve crippled ducks and wounded animals. We will stop the hunt to retrieve a cripples so that we do not accidentally go over our limits and we practice good ethics. We will decide when to give up on tracking a wounded animal, and we look hard and long, so shoot straight and true.

We also do encourage our clients to bring along their calls and to use them if they wish.

Well behaved retrievers are more than welcome and can stay in the cabin with you in a portable kennel. Or it can stay in one of our Kennels outside.
