NEW BRUNSWICK #213   BEAR & ATLANTIC SALMON
We discovered this outfitter and team back in 2008, and they have proven every  year since then to be very successful - and they also are fun people to work with. They have quite a variety, ranging from excellent black bear in Spring and Fall, to Atlantic Salmon fishing (Spring thru Fall), to superb striped bass fishing, to good bird hunting.
 
As to the bear hunting; these folks have been at or close to 100% for many years!  With the new 2014 two bear limit, you can shoot the first good bear you see and then hold out for a bruiser on the second tag. In 2012 they went 18 for 20 with all hunters having opportunities. They maintain many bait stations - far more than needed. The main Lodge is practically new, of peeled cedar logs, with a gorgeous stone fireplace. The River is right in front of the Lodge, so a hot shower, and then sitting on the porch with a cold beer is a fine relaxing time!
 They very rarely have anyone go home without a bear! Bears will average between 5 to 6.5 feet, meaning nice mature bears in the 200 to 250 pound range and some much larger.
 
SALMON FISHING
Currently, almost one-third of all two-sea-winter Atlantic Salmon (meaning 2 years in salt water) that are migrating to North American rivers-- were spawned in the Miramichi  River system. Truly, this river is a world treasure, but it gives up its salmon reluctantly. Spring and Fall fishing for salmon is basically fly fishing only- although there is some trout fishing you can do with barbless lures; some early spring fly trolling for anyone to do, and some good striped bass fishing as well. Stripers are caught by trolling- and 20 to 40 fish a day is possible, in the 5 to 20 pound range. All must be released though. But if you tag your bear early (good chance)- the fishing will keep you busy! (BUTCH NOTE: Low water meant 2012 Salmon fishing was very slow as was 2013 and 2014.  But that is Atlantic Salmon fishing!

2016 PRICES: (OBSERVERS $500)

UTAH #29    MTN LION ADVENTURE- 95% SUCCESS
This is one of the best houndsmen we know of. He is known far and wide as one of the best breeders and best cat hound trainers in the West, and he has been doing it for nearly 30 years!

Lion hunts are totally dependent on the quality of the dogs! Some of our clients from France who have hound hunted for leopards, jaguars, lions and more, called him the best they have ever seen!
His dogs do excellent on bare ground, given any reasonable set of conditions. In snow they are of course superb. His dogs do equally well on bobcat and black bear. He hunts some gorgeous and scenic areas in southern Utah and Northern Arizona. 

He has experienced guides and his horses are normally well mannered and well trained. He is a registered quarter horse breeder, so you can understand that this guy is really into his animals; and his expertise with them shows.

We have been using this outfit for a number of years, and over that time his success has hovered around the 95% plus bracket, about as good as can be expected, since bad weather can shut the hunt down. But 90% plus-- is a pretty darn good average for wild lions in rough terrain. And oh what views you will be treated to! You are hunting near the famed Kaibab in some awesome canyon and mountain country with views that will not quit!
He also is a very friendly and helpful guy, and in fact one client of ours who had some tough breaks, said to us that "most any normal outfitter would have thrown me out of camp"- and instead the guide pushed him to hang tough in the deep snow and he killed a nice lion on the last day!  We always appreciate outfitters who show patience and understanding; and who go out of their way to keep our clients happy!

GUATEMALA #46   AWESOME BILLFISHING ACTION!
4 nights, 3 days fishing, lodging, meals, 31 foot Betram- Party of 4- ONLY $1830
 
You may have read or heard about the awesome sail fishing, the marlin, Dorado, Roosters and Yellowfin Tuna fishing in Guatemala. It is relatively routine to raise 20 bill fish a day, and sometimes many more. This operation is small with two skippers, but one is an ex-navy seal and he also holds a 100 ton Captain's license.  The other is a world famous mate who has been featured in many fishing magazines-and who has just been granted the second boat to Captain. Top notch skippers who understand blue water trolling, and understand how to fly fish and how to use conventional tackle to raise bill fish.

Lonnie G.  "We chose this operation for a family fishing experience and in anticipation of an upcoming birthday. Two in our group had some special dietary/health needs and they confirmed they would be no problem before-hand. The owner and his staff went over and above every day to meet our needs. The fishing is great - we caught 86 sailfish in three days and two in our group were novices to this type of fishing! The lodge is set in an idyllic location, clean and the food was fantastic, especially the pineapple and mango snacks on the boat! They even made a special birthday cake and sang for our birthday celebration. We hope to make this journey again and cannot thank them enough for a five star experience! Put this on your bucket list". 
              
PRICING:
You'll pay about 50% less here-than you would at other local fishing lodges. We really like their 4 night, 3 day fish package as a bargain.

MISSOURI & IOWA #60    BIG WHITETAILS!!!!!
This superb Iowa and Missouri outfitter produces very big deer- and does it consistently!
He puts many hours of hard work into food plots, stand placement, clearing shooting lanes and scouting each year. This is still a fair chase hunt where many hours in the stand is still necessary. 

This hunt is customized for the hunter looking to take a buck scoring 140 or larger. In the last few years their largest deer scored 216 B&C with many bucks seen that would have scored over 170 B&C. In the last 6 or 7 years, they have taken 5 bucks that have grossed over 200 Boone & Crockett.
This outfitter currently hunts on 63 farms between Missouri and Iowa. They cover 6,000+ acres in Missouri alone. Their hunts take place in timber, CRP, crop fields, edges of crop fields, food plots, rolling ridge crop fields, deep ditches, and flat river bottoms.  They hunt you out of box blinds, ground blinds, ladder stands, hay bale blinds, and portable stands. If for some chance the client does not get his buck within the 6/5 day hunt, we do offer a daily rate to extend the hunt, if legally applicable, to fill tag.

2014 Results
Bow- overall 3/3,  Rifle- overall 6/9, largest buck- 161" and smallest 137", had a lot of first time clients, great camp, 100% rebook.  "We had a lot of bigger deer on trail cam, but the guys were unable to hold out".

2015 Results
3 Deer grossed B&C opening week in Missouri for rifle season 7-9 on kills (smallest being 139 8 pt.---- largest being mid 180's)         Missouri:  $3750- 5 days, guided, w/meals and lodging.
           
IOWA - 2017 - NOW IS THE TIME TO BOOK! This in our opinion is one of the best operations in Iowa. This outfitter knows that Iowa is one of the top destinations in North America for trophy whitetail deer hunting.  Getting an Iowa tag is a process, which he will assist you with. Getting this tag is the first step to the hunt. It can take 2 to 3 years for a bow tag , but gun tags can be drawn right away in most Zones.  

PRICING:  
Iowa hunts are guided with one guide per 2 hunters, 5 DAYS, 6 NIGHTS; $4,750 meals and lodging included. Licenses and Tags extra.                 GET 2016 PRICING IF YOU BOOK NOW FOR 2017!

MISSOURI IS OVER THE COUNTER FOR RIFLE OR BOW and it too has some very large bucks. 6,000 acres!   $3750. 130" minimum.
