Islands
and Bush Hunts
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!..
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!!
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.
We are hunting
on over one million acres of government land.
Over 80 % of our hunts are done on they many
islands and peninsulas that are on our lake. 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 white tail 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. The
Lodge is smack dab in the middle of the 6 best
hunting zones in Ontario. Located only 60 miles
east of the Manitoba border with Ontario and 70
miles north of International Falls, MN. 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 Fully Guided 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.
