Moose hunting with northern wilderness outfitters

[GUSTHEDUDOG]

Fellow Outdoorsmen,

I AM GOING A MOOSE HUNT WITH NORTHERN WILDERNESS OUTFITTERS AND COULD USE ALL THE HELP/INFORMATION I CAN GET. I AM GOING ON A CANOE TRIP DOWN THE CHIPEWYAN RIVER AND THE WABASCA RIVER. CAN ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT THE HUNTING SUCCESS ON THE RIVER AS WELL AS ANY AND ALL INFORMATION ON THE OUTFITTER. THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE.

NWO runs a pretty good outfitt from what I hear and seem to kill some pretty good moose.They have good guides and there Lodge is very nice. Moose numbers are down up north due to 2 bad winters and a 3rd one that was not great.In saying that the chip and Wab river do not see a ton of local pressure so i am sure there are trophy bulls in those area's.Not sure what size of bull you are looking for but you should not have to much trouble getting a moose and one in the 40" + range is likely. W have had a warm fall so far this year so hopefully that changes before you get here...


Good Luck

Brush up on your moose anatomy, they are different than deer.

Shooting out of canoe is something you should practice (if possible) ... you have the "bob up bob down" factor to consider.

You should run into some moose on your trip.
Good luck:)

Thanks guy's, any and all information is appreciated. I have never hunted moose and would be happy with a moose in the mid to high 30" range (i think lol) i have been practicing different shooting "styles" and from the look at the weather forcast the temp. Looks to be droping.

Track down Guidehunt, he used to guide for them a couple years ago and has done that trip. He may be able to give you some information you are looking for. He took a 52" out of there a 3 or 4 years ago ( I believe it was on the Wabasca) But as BB said the winters have been tough lately, and I know this spring almost all the moose I seen were covered in ticks so it is hard to say what your trip will be like, but they do run a good camp and you will have fun.
