2007 Fall Moose Hunt Report

Monday, November 19th, 2007

Ontario Bull Moose HuntThe moose hunt at The Outpost Company is a time of year we all look forward to with great anticipation. When we are out in the field with our hunters, the experience of calling in a bull for a hunter is an experience like no other. When you get a bull grunting at you and breaking brush as you call him in, it definitely makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck! Pictured here is just one of the several successful bull hunts at the camps and outposts that took place this fall.

2007 Fall Bear Hunt Report

Monday, November 19th, 2007

The high bear population in our bear management areas made it a very exciting hunt for all bear hunters. With the population boom and our vast hunting area, we had experienced very active baits this fall. Even with our abundant blueberry crop the bears were looking for the last bit of sustenance before hibernation, this made for lots of excitement while on stand.

Comments: We had a super time at Caribou Falls Landing! The fishing was awesome and we both had the opportunity to pass on multiple bear while on stand. On the third evenings hunt, Shelly arrowed this 260 lb boar at 13 yards. We were so impressed with the quality of the bait sites and the number of bear! Thanks again for a memorable hunt!

Bass Fishing OntarioFly In Outpost Fishing TripWelcome to the Halley’s Camps, Lodges and Outposts November Newsletter. It hardly seems like fishing season is over, but here we are heading into November already! Pictured here to the left are some nice trophy length smallmouth bass from guests staying at a couple of our fly in outposts this fall. At Caribou Falls Landing the construction project on the Lodge is coming along nicely. The foundation and floor is done, the walls and partitions are up, and the trusses are are in place. A huge load of shingles has been shipped up to Caribou, and at the writing of this newsletter, are being put on the roof. Our aim is to have the entire lodge enclosed before the snow flies so that interior work on the 3,200 square foot building can continue throughout the winter months. We will keep you posted!
