EDUCATIONAL BEAR CAMP
Are you interested in not just going ON a bear hunt but learning truly HOW to bear hunt?
At our bear camps, we offer the opportunity for those wanting to learn more and do more, to have the guidance and instruction of head guide and lodge owner, Rob Argue teach them how and where to set up a bear bait from A to Z.
Each participant will set up their own bear bait and stand while working as a group and under the direction and guidance of Rob.
Participants will be taught: where and how to start a new bait site, proper stand placement and installation, what to use for bait, how much and when; hunting techniques for archery or firearm hunters including range practise time and other hunting techniques, establishing drop off and pick up routines (for yourself or if taking friends/clients), tracking, skinning and hide preparation for taxidermy, rules and regulations and review of safe hunting and firearm handling practises.
**Pre baited, established stands will be available for the participants to hunt from each evening unless choosing to hunt from their newly established stand locations. (5 nights).
A motorboat and gas is also included for every 2 participants to enjoy excellent walleye and pike fishing in the mornings before the classes begin at noon each day. Participants will then head to their stands by 4:30pm each evening until dark.
Accommodations are provided at outpost camps at the beautiful lac Camachigama location of Eastern Canadian Outfitters, located 2.5 hours east of Val D’Or, Quebec.
Camps are limited to groups of 4 for direct, hands on instruction. The group will share in the workload and learn together making this truly a “team” focused educational event!
