ELBOW LAKE HUNT
Join
us for a five-day remote black bear hunt
at our Elbow Lake Lodge
facility. With no more than 6 hunters per week, we offer a Manitoba bear hunt second to none. All of our baits are accessible by
boat and are tree stand equipped for either rifle or bow hunters. We can
also facilitate those who prefer hunting from ground blinds.
Constant activity is maintained by our monitored baiting schedule. Your
guild will take you to your stand each day between 3 - 4 pm and co-
ordinate
pick up times based on sunset. While on this hunt you will have the
opportunity to enjoy the fantastic northern pike and walleye fishing Elbow Lake
has to offer and all the comforts of Elbow Lake Lodge's remote facility.

General Information ...
Each hunter is allowed to harvest one bear (no females accompanied by cubs) and
may use rifles of .270 caliber or larger, slug guns, muzzleloaders or bows at 50
lbs. or more. The weather is unpredictable during this time of year and we
recommend that everyone bring rain gear, warm clothes and rubber boots as well
as your personal gear which should include a small flashlight. Hunter
orange is not required and camouflage is recommended. Hunters are asked to
provide your weapon and
ammunition. All hunting and fishing licenses, skinning, quartering,
baiting, stands and freezing are included with our hunts. Contact us for exact
season dates and availability.
Bear Wounding Policy ...
If you wound a bear and it is not recovered you can continue
your hunt but you will remain at the same bait on which you wounded the bear.
Our baits usually have multiple bears on them, so remaining there is not all
bad. You may have the opportunity at getting a second shot at your wounded
bear as he may return to that bait. If you wound a second bear, sorry your
bear hunt is over.
After
you have shot your bear, you and your guide will do a preliminary search.
If the bear is not found, you will return to camp with the guide and at this
time it will be decided whether to go back out that night to search or go out
early the next day. Remember, after you hit a bear you must know where you
saw him last. This makes the search safer and easier. If we go back
out to search, the guides will be the only ones carrying firearms for safety
purposes. When you shoot a bear we need a very important 2 lung and/or
heart shot to
kill him almost instantly.
