Ontario Grouse Lodge

[160andup]

Anyone have experience with any (preferably eastern) Ontario Canada camps that offer DIY grouse hunting? Bring my dogs, they point us in the right direction, provide lodging, etc. Seems like they are very reasonably priced but hate to do it without hearing first hand reports or suggested places.

I have bear hunted in maine and New brunswick both places i've seen a ton of grouse. New Brunswick is more recent ive hunted there. I know a really good outfitter thst does grouse hunts and encourage you to bring your dog. They do an unreal job on bear hunts i'm sure the grouse hunt would be just as good.

Northern Ontario woods are a lot thicker than most US destinations. Most locals just drive logging roads and shoot what they see that way. The woods up there is called "the bush" for a reason. Very hard to get good dog work areas. Not to say it cant be done but, dont go into it blindly, or you may be riding around with the dog and shooting from the road, with no dog work. My favorite area to hunt with dogs although not grouse woods was South Dakota. The public and semi private public access lands out there for pheasants was phenomenal. We hunted just west of the Missouri river basin, saw hundreds of roosters daily. Lots of areas for dog work. Plus they have sharptails and prairie chickens. Good luck, in your quest. Ski
