Islands
and Bush Hunts
Ever
gone on a REAL deer hunt ? ...... No, I'm
not speaking of the weekend at grampa's
farm, or the 320 acres of farm land you
are part owners in, nor am I talking
about those high fenced, baited hunting
ranches, or sitting a a blind over
looking a pile of bait like out in
western canada, or driving the priarie
roads out west then jumping from your
truck to shoot!!! And please, that's
fine.... everyone needs some time away
from the hustle & bustle of todays
life! .... But.... what I'm talking about
less than 5% of hunters can actually say
they have experienced and appreciate. I
speaking of hunting where there are no
fences, no roads, no deer feeding
stations ..... I'm talking about hunting
in the ways of the hunters of long ago,
like the natives and early explorers!
This is the way of our hunting lodge. Our
family specializes in world class 100 %
fair chase hunts. We are 3 generations,
going onto the 4, as full time huinting
outfitters. Although, we opperate a 5
star facility in the great white north
and we do make use of serveral modern
pieces of equipment, our hunting style is
that of days long ago. It's called Slip
hunting or Still hunting, or stalking,
along with ground and tree blinds. Where
skills have to be that much sharper to be
successful.Besides bring home many great
memories from your hunt with us, hunting
with us will make you a sharper, wiser
hunter over all ......
In
a time where Long before the great
turnaround in the deer herds south of the
Canadian border, in the mid west and
southern states, this was the area known
as the place to go if you were going to
bag a big deer with heavy racks. And you
know what? It still is! But if you're
looking for that fenced-in, bait piled
hunt like you'd get elsewhere, forget it.
This is still and will always be the
untamed north country. There are no
sections quartered off, no roads every ¼
mile. Just a lot of great forested
hunting land.
PART OF
WHAT SETS THIS FANTASTIC HUNTING RETREAT
APART FROM A ' TYPICAL HUNTING CAMP' IS
...THAT EACH GROUP IS CATERED TO AS AN
INDIVIDUAL GROUP. WHETHER IT BE ONLY 2
HUNTERS OR AS MANY AS 10 IN YOUR PARTY,
EVERYTHING FROM YOUR OWN GUIDES AND
EQUIPMENT, TO YOUR OWN HUNTING AREAS,
FROM YOUR OWN CABIN TO EATING YOUR MEALS
AROUND YOUR GROUPS OWN HUNTING
SCHEDULE........ NOT ANYONE ELSE!!
.............IT'S ALL JUST CENTERED
AROUND YOU!!
We are hunting on over one million
acres of government land. Our hunts are
done on they many islands and peninsulas
that are on our lake, as well as the
surronding big bush country. To grasp the
tremendous mass of area we are hunting,
you should first know this.
The lake has over one million surface
acres of water. Over 14,684 islands, more
than 65,000 miles of shore line. Fact is,
we need not ever hunt the same island or
peninsula more than once. Providing every
group that hunts with us, fresh untouched
or previously disturbed trophy whitetail
opportunities. You will not ever see
another orange hunting jacket except for
your group!..
We take only a limited amount of hunters
each year, helping to insure your
success!...
Northwestern Ontario has consistently and
will continue to produce heavier bodied (
the largest body size in north America )
and large racked deer. They are plentiful
here. Racks ranging from 10 to 20 points
are not uncommon. Field dressed, these deer are
weighing from 225 to 300 lbs.
average! Have doubt's about that?? Then
just check out the photo to the left!
Click on it ..... look at the serious
belly fat!! Above the tail the marbled
fat will reach in excess of 4 " on
some animals! Look at the general map for
north america and see just exactly where
we are. Being just south of Hudson Bay,
we have some of the longest, coldest,
hardest winters of all north america!
These deer need serious fat to just make
it through the winter!! The deer range
from 130's to mid 170's typical, 165 to
250 non- typical.
Consistently,
harvesting a good 70% on an average
success rate or better on 140 B&C
class and up, even higher on a great
year! These percentages are on a 100%
FAIR CHASE HUNT!
Were are uniquely
situated. Lecuyer's Tru-Tail Lodge is
smack dab in the middle of the 6 best
hunting zones in Ontario. These zones
hold the highest concentration of deer.
One of these zones has also been
designated bow and muzzle loader
exclusively and has been that way for
several years. Lots of these deer have
never seen man their whole life. Within
minutes from the lodge you can be hunting
that trophy buck you've always dreamt
about.
Ontario hosts
the largest population of whitetail deer
in all of Canada!... (2004 stats)
We have a mix of terrain - from
high rocky, heavily treed ground to low
swampy areas and beaver ponds. There are
over 1 million acres of boreal forest
surrounding undoubtedly the finest
forage, cover and protection that make
for bigger, older deer. This is the best
place for reclusive old bucks to get away
from the hunting pressure. This is not a
hunt for the weak or timid. This is
perhaps the finest, true trophy whitetail
hunt left in north America. You must be
in relatively good shape, as you may
expect to walk, 1/2 - 4 miles a day. You
may also harvest a timber wolf on this
hunt
Less
than 10 % of mature bucks in this area
are harvested by hunters!... average age
of deer harvested, 4.5 - 7.5 years of
age. More mature bucks here, are killed
by timber wolves and the winters that are
so hard on old bucks!...
Our hunts run 6 days and are
buck only. Lecuyer's Tru-Tail Lodge
employs the finest qualified, most highly
skilled guides available anywhere. These
men love to hunt and love being in the
bush. They respect it, gives back to them
employment and food for the long, cold
winters. They'll employ for you all their
secrets and techniques - all of the
knowledge passed on to them from their
fathers, whose only store back then was
Mother Nature's, and for the most part,
still is.
We hunt peak rut times only,
and after all foliage is off the under
brush !...
All hunting areas have been pre scouted,
to help insure a successful hunt!...
 Here we use
the three basic styles of deer hunts . .
. tree stands, stalking and slow drives.
The methods vary with the area your
hunting, size of your party, weapons,
weather, time of day, etc. This place has
long been known by the few who were not
afraid to venture forth as the place to
bag BIG deer. Just ask around . . . talk
to any old-timers who were here. They
will all tell you that you haven't hunted
woods until you've been in our bush.
Contac us now to get started on your
Canadian Trophy Deer Hunt. Put the odds
in your favor, be one of the few to bag a
true Northwood's trophy buck.
