FAQs From Our New Hampshire Hunters
Garia Bay Outfitters provides a unique advantage for New Hampshire hunters by offering access to some of the most pristine and unspoiled wilderness areas in Newfoundland. Our operation is deeply committed to sustainability and conservation, ensuring a healthy ecosystem for both wildlife and hunters. We understand the preferences and expectations of New Hampshire hunters, and our experienced guides tailor each trip to meet your specific needs. From personalized advice on equipment to insights on local wildlife behaviour, we prioritize your satisfaction and hunting success.
Newfoundland is famous for its impressive populations of moose and black bears. Adult moose can weigh between 800 and 1,500 pounds, with some exceptional specimens exceeding this range. They stand about 6 feet tall at the shoulder and can span over 10 feet from nose to tail. Black bears in Newfoundland typically weigh between 150 and 600 pounds, with some trophy bears reaching even higher weights. The combination of abundant food sources and a healthy habitat contributes to these impressive sizes, making for an exciting hunting experience. Hunters often have opportunities to target both species.
Yes, all of our hunts at Garia Bay Outfitters are fully guided. Each hunt is led by a knowledgeable guide who has extensive experience in the local terrain and wildlife behavior. Our guides provide not only assistance with navigation and tracking but also valuable insights into hunting techniques specific to Newfoundland’s environment. This includes strategies for approaching animals, understanding their habits, and utilizing the right equipment. Our commitment to guiding ensures that you have the support you need for a safe and successful hunt, regardless of your experience level.
Hunting in the Newfoundland wilderness is pure adventure. There are thick stands of heavy forest, rolling hills, open meadows, boggy marshlands, and real elevation changes over rocky areas that can be challenging to travel. The weather can sometimes be unsettled, bringing cooler temperatures, especially in the morning and evening, along with occasional rain or wind.
We highly recommend bringing sturdy and waterproof boots with good ankle support, as you’ll do quite a bit of trekking across uneven and often wet ground. Layering will be key for constantly changing weather conditions: from moisture-wicking base layers up to a weatherproof jacket. Don’t leave home without warm gloves and a hat for those cooler mornings. Quality daypack with essentials: water, snacks, extra layers for the gear, and if the moment needs to be captured, take a camera with a waterproof case. Our ATV and Argo transportation will help you get through the toughest areas, but being prepared for the elements is the most important part of your safe and successful hunt.
Newfoundland is renowned for its trophy-sized moose and black bears, and our hunting areas are strategically chosen to maximize your chances of encountering these magnificent animals. Many hunters report success in finding and harvesting trophy-sized animals, thanks to our guides’ expertise and knowledge of the local wildlife. While success can never be guaranteed, our high-quality hunting grounds and strategic approaches significantly enhance your odds. We encourage you to discuss your goals with your guide, who can provide tailored advice on techniques and locations for targeting trophy animals.
It is crucial to familiarize yourself with the local hunting and firearm regulations before your trip. In Newfoundland, you must possess a valid hunting license and any required permits specific to the game you intend to hunt. Firearm regulations include restrictions on certain types of firearms and ammunition. For example, you may be required to use non-lead ammunition in specific areas. We will provide you with comprehensive information regarding the regulations, including the necessary paperwork and compliance requirements. Additionally, our guides are well-versed in local laws and can answer any questions you may have during your trip.
