I'm wanting to book a 2021 Newfoundland moose hunt. Have you hunted with Taylor's Brook Outfitters? Opinions would be appreciated. Thanks

I'm surprised no one has responded. This outfitter must not be as popular (or good) as I was led to believe.

I dont know anything about them at all, but searching where they are located "Strattons Pond" per their website, puts them right outside of Cornerbrook. Awful close to town for me. I've hunted with Robert's and with Red Indian Lake Outfitters and would recommend either. Very different hunts at each place, but would do eother again.

We did very well with CONNE RIVER IN 2018. The tribal leadership replaced the head guide in 2019 leading to some confusion, I don’t know how they did last year.
We are going to Tuckamore lodge october1.

Look at Moose Valley Outfitters. They are family owned and have two fly in camps. His reference list was really long so I sat down and emailed about 30 people. All were positive. I was there two years ago and scheduled (hopefully) to go back this year.

I'm going in the next couple yrs as a retirement gift to me. I've been to NL 3x. I love it there, but the winters can be brutal.

There should be a sticky for NL hunting on this CDN forum. Other provinces as well.

The float plane ride is about 30 minutes to the east/southeast of Deer Lake. The camps are on Bear Pond and Island pond. You can google both and they are on the maps. We also saw some nice caribou two years ago but the owner Dean said they do the caribou hunts in a different location.

I'm only 6 hrs from the ferry but it looks like a 19hr trip for you. Is this their website? http://www.moosevalley.com/index.php

I hunted moose with Taylor's Brook quite some time ago. They walked me to death but I shot a nice 15pt bull. Camp was clean and food was good. I also took a nice black bear on the same trip. They hunt out of a lakeside home and accommodate about 6 hunters. I had a good trip.
