The Hunt:
Timber wolves are
extremely shy and difficult to hunt at the best of times. Unlike
bears, sitting over a bait expecting to shoot a wolf is next to
impossible. We have developed a unique hunting system over the last
20 years that produces results.
Located in the far
reaches of Northern Ontario, I have spent numerous years scouting thousands
of miles of bush country in pursuit of the “Ghost of the
North”. This is a truly unique hunting experience that usually
takes place in the winter months of December through March when the snow is
deep. There are numerous bait sites widely scattered throughout the
region in some of the finest wolf country in Northern Ontario.
A typical day will begin by checking bait sites by pick up and snow
machines. If it has been hit, your guide may try to get the animal
out by predator call If that fails, he will run the perimeter of that site
and if the wolf or wolves are bedded down within the block, he will place
his hunters in strategic positions to await the “Drive”. A
tracker will then track the animal on snowshoes, find his bed and the chase
is on, and this is when the action begins. The wolves may try to elude the
tracker but eventually will get frustrated and break towards the hunters
.The anticipation of being on stand and waiting for the most elusive of
game animals to appear before you is truly a rush.
All hunters must provide
a current hunting license in order to obtain a non resident license.
