Caronport Saskatchewan

My wife and I are moving 60 miles West of Regina for two years can anyone tell me what the hunting and fishing is like in that area. Particularily the upland and waterfowl shooting as two labradors are coming with us!!!

[elkdom]

in the fall migratory bird shooting ?? yes until your shoulders are black and blue, although you will have to scout out friendly farmers well before season, private deeded land as far as the eyes can see,lots of deer,
you will want your Sask provincial ID and medical ASAP, prior to getting Sask Game hunting licenses
start making contacts with rural farmers soon as possible!:wink:

go online to ( Sask Renewable Resources )for more details on resident hunting license requirements

You can hunt mosquitos the size of crows!

Caronport is 22 km west of Moosejaw and 90 km west or Regina. Pretty flat last time I was there. Just make an adventure when you are there. Two years will go by in a flash, you may like it and want to stay, unless you're a mountain boy, in which case you will be driving out to Lethbridge just to get a view of them.
Keep us posted.;)

Yeah, and don't forget the grass hoppers.

,,,,It is predicted the new Boon & Crockett record scoring Gopher will be harvested near Elbow Sask, near the north east end of Lake Diefenbaker,,

,
,,, and rumors this fall a new Pope & Young record setting Magpie was
arrowed near Mankota Sask.


,,, also farther to the North, a 19 pound Yellow Perch ,,was landed by
Harvey Keck of Lac la Plonge Sask, ice fishing using his laces from his Wal -Mart runners, Harvey played the Ponderous Perch for 7 hours with just 56 inches of shoe lace and a safety pin for a hook, finished the Perch off with 2 quick ones from his 12 gauge defender,, go Harvey!

God I miss that Province!:cry:

Welcome to Sask. :-D i was once a BC.rr you are indeed in great up land country and ringnecks, A few million geese come Oct will be in your area. Great mulie hunting(bow season open- rifle is draw) whitetail is great and there are huge moose in your area. head East towards Grenfell or Precville and your into Elk. Indeed there is great Gopher pop. and a ruger 10/22 is a must. Not uncommon to shoot 500-700 rnds/day. Take your wife to Moosejaw to the hotsprings and visit Al Capones tunnels. your in cactus country there in pastures so pack 1st for dogs and twizzers. Also there are a few rattlers west of regina. Enjoy the hot summer. we get the most sunshine/hours then anyother prov. "duke P.S indeed tons of Huns. fast and fly in all directions. lol there fun. maybe we will meet for a hunt.

[dukester]

As for deer hunting, you will have a blast come Nov whitetail season. we have a liberal Muzz loader season which starts Sept-end of Oct,Nov is whitetail rifle. theres a lake to the west of a few 10-20 kms. this would be a hotspot for geese. Permission to hunt is easy as 90% of land is not fenced and access to land not posted is granted in the regs for hunters.
Town of Craik to the north has good open whitetail hunting. they will hide in the smallest bushes in the middle of a field... any questions pm "duke"

[Spirit's Master]

Ahhh! memories of the east. Four years in the Jaw, but those were back in my non-hunting days. I hope to go back there someday for the bird hunting. Stay warm and keep the bug dope handy. Used to see pheasants and partridge near MJ and Buffalo Pound while out biking.

I've got Mennonite relatives and friends all over, and after looking the place up, it doesn't seem there's any other reason to be in Caronport.
