Hunting
in Northwest Ontario With Timber Edge Camps
The fall season is an excellent
time of the year to roam the hundreds of miles of logging roads
in the area for ruffed and spruce grouse. Waterfowl abound in
the many bays and small lakes in the area. We also offer baited
or spot and stalk fall bear hunts in one of our 3 bear management
areas. We also offer baited or spot and stalk fall bear hunts
in one of our 3 bear management areas. We place our baits to
take advantage of a full blueberry crop. The baiting starts
in May and continues throughout the summer for fall hunts. In
9 years of bear hunting the average weekly bear sightings per
hunter is 8 and as high as 16 for one of our hunters. Overall
our bears have averaged 210 lbs. dressed (250 lbs. live). In
2007 we averaged 289 lbs. dressed (344 lbs. live) with the largest
being 421 dressed, 501 lbs. live. In 2008 we averaged 244 lbs.
dressed (290 lbs. live) with the largest 340 lbs. dressed (405
lbs. live). In 2008 we averaged 244 lbs. dressed (405 lbs. live).
In 2008 the only hunter to not take a bear home saw 10 during
his week of hunting and shot the first night.
No hunter has ever left camp without taking at least one
shot at a bear in their week of hunting.

We strive to make every hunt enjoyable
and successful.

Fishing
in Northwest Ontario With Timber Edge Camps
Walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass and lake trout abound
in home waters. Good muskie fishing, within a muskie sanctuary,
is available right across the highway from camp, which we
can arrange for you upon request. While summer fishing is
always good, it is no match for spring and fall seasons. Trophy
fish of all species are consistently caught during the entire
season. We mark current fishing holes and hot spots on large
scale maps we have available at camp.
