Packages for Massuchessetts Moose Hunters

Moose hunting isn’t just a challenge, it’s strictly prohibited in Massachusetts. For hunters passionate about pursuing this iconic hunting animal, the lack of opportunity can be frustrating, to say the least.

But in Newfoundland, where approximately 120,000 moose roam the wild, the adventure you’ve been dreaming of is waiting.

With vast hunting grounds, an impressive 85% success rate, and expert guides who know the land like the back of their hand, we offer the chance to experience moose hunting legally and abundantly.

Packages for Massachusetts Bear Hunters

In Massachusetts, black bear hunting comes with very strict rules. Massachusetts harvest tags must be attached immediately, the carcass must stay intact during transport, and all harvests must be reported within 48 hours.
 
These regulations can make the process feel overly complicated, overly restricted, and sometimes not even worth it. At Garia Bay Outfitters, we offer a simpler, more rewarding experience.
 
With abundant black bear populations and no burdensome tagging or reporting requirements, you can live (and hunt) in the moment without worrying about the restrictions that await you.

Packages For Massachusetts Anglers

In Massachusetts, Atlantic salmon fishing is limited to stocked lakes like Wachusett Reservoir, where introduced fish are maintained for recreational purposes.
 
While enjoyable, these environments lack the authenticity that true anglers seek. In Newfoundland, the story is different. Rivers like the Humber and Exploits are home to thriving populations of wild Atlantic salmon in their natural habitat.
 
At Garia Bay Outfitters, you’ll cast your line in pristine waters, guided by experts who know the land intimately. Escape the artificial feel of stocked fishing and immerse yourself in true Atlantic Salmon fishing.

Newfoundland is very chilly and unpredictable, especially during early spring months. Preparing for a hunting trip in Newfoundland requires packing smart so you’re ready for the elements and the experience. At Garia Bay Outfitters, we provide a detailed packing list to make the process simple. Here’s what you should include:

  • Clothing: Bring layered, weather-resistant clothing. Newfoundland’s weather can change rapidly, so dressing in layers is essential. Waterproof and insulated outerwear, gloves, and a hat are must-haves to stay warm and dry during your hunt. Don’t forget lightweight layers for milder conditions.
  • Footwear: Durable, waterproof boots with good ankle support are crucial for navigating Newfoundland’s rugged terrain. A second pair of comfortable shoes for relaxing at the lodge is also a good idea.
  • Hunting Gear: Pack your firearm (along with any necessary permits and documentation), ammunition, and any additional equipment you prefer, such as binoculars or a rangefinder. Our team will provide support with firearm regulations and can help ensure you have the right gear for a successful hunt.
  • Personal Items: Don’t forget toiletries, medications, and any personal essentials you might need during your stay. A compact first-aid kit and sunscreen are also handy for time spent outdoors.
  • Daypack: A good daypack will help you carry essentials like water, snacks, extra clothing, and any gear you’ll need while out in the field.
  • Other Recommended Items: A camera or smartphone to capture memories, a power bank for charging devices, and a journal for documenting your adventure are nice additions. If you’re coming for Atlantic salmon fishing as well, pack your preferred fishing gear, though much of it can be provided upon request.
