Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Anticosti #12 is now but a memory.

I appreciate the OP's post. Nice pictures. Interesting hunt.

But, based on the above, screw them. I wouldn't give them a damn dime if they want to price that way.

Always look forward to this thread. YOu never disappoint . Thank you

This....x100

Thanks everyone. I never considered Safari Anticosti for many reasons. If we weren't so happy with Sepaq I "might" consider Lac Genevieve, or Cerf -Sau outfitters.

Last time I flew into Anticosti both Safari and Sepaq hunters were on the jet. Lots of repeat customers for both coming and going. All seemed pleased to me. I am hoping to re-book with Safari for a November hunt and rattle in a buck for the first time.

Yeah, particularly with the extra 30% they made this year, due to the exchange rate !

I always look forward to this one. Thanks for bringing us along again!

Congrats and great post again LBK! I too look forward to this thread every year....

As I get older all these kind words really humble me. The fact is, I REALLY appreciate my wife WANTING to go. She is not patronizing me. She really appreciates hunting deer. Be the good Lord willing, we'll have another year. She made me pay for the entire trip upfront because the exchange was so much in our favor. I told he to be patient, it will keep going. We paid when it was $1.33-1 now it's $1.37-1. I'm just keeping my mouth shut.

LBK I'd LOVE for my wife to hunt with me. I also really love this annual thread and seeing what a beautiful place the island is. Really happy to hear you were both successful again.

Steve, you're just lucky she lets you go along on these hunting trips.

This is one of the hunt reports that I look forward to every year! Thanks for sharing it again

The hunt gives me something to look forward to every year. I know I'm lucky to have a wife that enjoys the hunt, but she also enjoys being severed her meals, not having to clean up afterwards, and having to make a bed. It's a win win situation. I just hope next year there's a little less rain. Thanks everyone for the replies and the interest in the posting. Be the good Lord willing, there'll be another trip next year. At least the trip is all paid for now. If I croak between now and then someone will have a free trip.

I apologize for the lack of a post last year. The last two years have been tough ones. 2 years ago it was severe flooding for the most part. Last year things were better, but my wife and I only filled one tag each. She only had a decent chance at the one deer she killed. I got an easy 6 pointer with my deceased father's Remington model 740 semi-auto in 30-06. That rifle got passed down to my son and my father never killed anything with it. My wife killed her bull moose with it in 1992 and my son insisted I kill something with it before I give it to him. So I did and he is happy. I missed TOW VERY easy shots with my Savage 1899B in 25-25 and it was my own darn fault. Over zealous and over confidence were the two contributing factors. Sad to see all the pictures are gone. I really don't know if I am up to the task of posting photos using the photo gallery. It seems VERY tome consuming. Thanks all for the kind words over the years.

Well, there we have it - the first documented miss in the history of the campfire.

I look forward to your hunt post each year and encourage you to get up to snuff on picts.

LBK, I also enjoy your stories and pics from Anticosti.
Try this for pics, way easier.

I look forward to your Anticosti posts , the fire would not be the same without them.

SKane, Tom264, Oldelkhunter.....................................Folks like you really warm my heart. Especially with the fix the country is putting itself in today. My wife and I will do our BEST to provide an interesting read on our Anticosti adventure this year. Thanks all for the kind words.

Yes, LBK, we need #15 !!!!

I also look forward to your posts. It's been a dream of mine since I was a little kid to go to Anticosti and hunt deer. If you don't get the pics up, I'd love to hear some stories from this past season.
