Black Bear

Manitoba is well known for producing huge black bear and we are located in one of the best habitats within the province. Our hunting area encompasses over 2000 sq. miles and we keep about 70 bait sites active during the spring season. In fall, we run about 30 bait sites and also conduct our hunts via spot and stalk as bears are feeding on acorns and cereal grains in farm fields. To our immediate north is endless boreal forest, yet we are at the fringe of the farmland, so there is plenty of nutritious feed to keep the bears around.

Bear can be very large and cover ground extremely quickly. For this reason, we recommend a 270 Win. with 150 gr. bullets as the minimum caliber to bring. A scope with high magnification isn't necessary as shots are generally close, but it is beneficial to have telescopic sights as this will give you an extra 10-15 minutes of shooting light at the end of the day, when the big bears are most active. Most of our bait sites are also in heavy cover where light fades quickly.

Whitetail Deer

The Northern Interlake area of Manitoba consists of mixed farmland and boreal forest, which makes an ideal habitat for the elusive Canadian trophy whitetail buck.  We are situated in the north-west portion of the Interlake at the fringe of the farmland and endless wilderness to the immediate north.

We have our stands situated overlooking large alfalfa fields, cut lines in forested areas, as well as densely treed areas along frequently travelled trails. We are flexible in our approach to how you like to hunt and can vary the amount of time you want to spend in the field to your specific needs. However, as with all hunting, the more time you spend out there, the better.
