We offer these trophy moose hunts during the rut in absolute premium units in the province of Alberta. This hunt takes place in the foothills on the edge of the mountains and many provincial parks. A very limited number of tags are issued in these areas the few we have are guaranteed licenses. This is a rigorous mountain hunt, it is not for everyone!!!
For this moose hunt we travel to the hardest spots to access in our area, some are up to 2 hours from our main lodge. We use a variety of camps which include trappers cabins, outfitter tents, campers and a portable refer van. These areas hold bigger moose on average due to their remoteness or hard accesses for resident hunters. Our goal is for moose 50 inches and up. This is a harder hunt for experienced hunters with a 85% success rate.

Here in the peace river region of Alberta, we have the perfect mixture of bush vs farmland to produce world class monster trophy mule deer bucks. We have 4 non-resident trophy archery mule deer tags. With these guaranteed licenses, hunters will be hunting for bucks from 170 - 220 Pope & Young.
The largest trophy mule deer we have taken is 215 Pope & Young, with a lot of bucks in the 180 to 200 inch class. Due to the fact we only do 4 archery mule deer hunts, we will have plenty of monster bucks and areas to choose from. This hunt is our specialty, and it is always nice to finally go after the bucks we have been watching all season. We have mastered stalking these old mature bucks in velvet and in the early season while they are in predictable feeding patterns. We have never taken an archery hunter that did not have a shot or realize that this is incredible archery hunt for huge trophy bucks.

Alberta wolf hunts can be very rewarding. Our wolves can be grey, black, blue, white and rust colors. These ultimate predators makes a great trophy. Over the last few years the wolves in our hunting area have drastically increased. Our wolf hunts run from September to March. Because of our abundance of wolves and coyotes there is no limit.
The best time to hunt wolves is February. The snow is the deepest and the wolves are hungry, they hit bait best at this time. We do some predator calling but majority is from a blind over bait. A typical bait site is very remote with miles and miles of hard packed ski-doo trails leading through deep snow to the bait site.
Wolf hunts take place at baited sites with heated blinds. Tracking and calling of wolf packs is also effective when conditions are favorable. Expect your shots to be 200 yards when sitting in a blind and closer when calling wolves or coyotes.
Waterfowl hunting Alberta Canada duck hunts and goose hunts, Smoky River Outfitting provides waterfowl hunts for Canada goose, Ross's geese, White Fronted Geese, Snow Geese, Pintail and Mallard ducks in Peace Country Alberta Canada.

Thousands upon thousands of local and migrating Canada geese and ducks stage in the Peace parklands, making our hunting area a waterfowlers paradise! With several large lakes, wetlands, fields of barley, peas and wheat you are sure to limit out each day!
Typically the morning hunt is designated for goose hunting. After breakfast you will be escorted to your hunting blinds in the pursuit of the Canada Goose, White fronted Goose and odd Snow Goose that fly through. We use top of the line coffin blinds that are nearly impossible for the birds to detect. Our blinds are extremely comfortable and allow a for great line of sight. The morning hunts last only a few hours as limits are often taken in a short period of time.
Late afternoon and evening pass shoot is typically a duck hunt. This is a very exciting hunt, and with a very wide variety of waterfowl species in this flyway, you may have quite a mixed bag. The afternoon duck hunt lasts until sundown, and if limits are full before the sun sets, you have the option of scouting the field for the next day or two.
