as seen on the outdoor channel's "wild upland."
Enjoy the fall colors, the sounds of falling leaves, and the fresh scent of the fir and balsam as you stroll along gravel roads hunting ruffed grouse and woodcock. Well trained pointers and retrievers help ensure success and provide hours of entertainment while upland bird hunting.
Northern Maine offers some of best covers for grouse and woodcock anywhere since birds face less pressure than even in Southern Maine. Expect 10 to 25 flushes per day depending on weather.
Back at camp, be entertained by the sight and sounds of eagles flying in search of their next meal, or a bull moose in hot pursuit of a cow.
Duck hunting is also available at this time.
During your hunt, American plan accommodations at the Eagle Lake Sporting Camps are provided, along with transportation and bird preparation.
Your comfortably appointed historic log cabin with its own lake facing verandah provides a private spot to contemplate the day’s activities or unwind with a beverage and cigar. The Roosevelt Dining Room and its great room will serve as the headquarters during your stay. You will enjoy an early morning send-off breakfast, home cooked lunches, dinner and end of the day refreshments in comfort.
Professional guides, top notch services, clean comfortable American Plan accommodations, and plenty of non-hunting activities will keep everybody happy.
