Newfoundland hunting outfitters, Portland Creek Outfitters

Want to take the hunting trip that you've always dreamed about? We'll take you to remote areas in Newfoundland where hunting is at its very best!

AREAS
Four of our camps are located in area three (3) and reached only by float plane, miles from our float plane base in Northern Newfoundland. Our camps here can accommodate up to four hunters each week, for single game hunts or combination hunts!

Belby and One Thousand Island Ponds are located in area forty-five (45), also in northern Newfoundland. These camps can be reached by ATV or plane, and can also accommodate up to four (4) moose hunters only each week.

Moose antlers are a unique trophy, and are a real prize to take home! The cape may also be taken , if necessary. Moose meat is very delicious to eat, and you will certainly want to take it all back home with you.

Caribou are also excellent to eat! And the large males have spectacular racks of antlers for hunters seeking a trophy of a lifetime! Our success rate have been a perfect 100%!

Portland Creek Outfitters has been selected by its clients to qualify for publication in the book "Top Rated Big Game Hunting"

SEASONS
The opening of our moose season coincides with the mating season, when the moose can usually be "called" by guides to within range of easy rifle or bow shot! Hunters chance of being successful range 95-100% The seasons for moose, caribou, and black bear open in mid-September and close in mid-November in those areas.

MEAT CARE
We will take good care of your meat. We have meat houses at camps. Each hunters animals is put in heavy white cotton bags, tagging, and showing instructions as to what you want done with your meat after its taken out of the camp. We also offer meat-cutting as a part of our service to our hunters.

COME PREPARED

We recommend that all hunters bring high-powered rifles equipped with scopes, that have see-through under open sights. Rifles should be sighted for 150 to 200 yards. Each hunter should bring warm sleeping bags, warm clothing, rubber footwear (approx. 12-16" high,) binoculars, rain gear and of course, a camera for those spectacular pictures of your trip. Because of fly-in camp, you should try to keep your gear as light as possible - approximately 60lbs per person.

Sometimes choosing an outfitter can be very difficult. Some outfitters tend to over hunt their area and this makes it very difficult to find game. If you decide to come with us, I'm sure that you will have a successful and memorable hunting or fishing trip.
