From Pheasant Winds To Bear Wins: A Guide’s Week In New Brunswick
Send us a text
A stormy marsh, a wired bird dog, and a mystery moose set the tone for a guiding week that never slowed down. We chased pheasants through sideways wind, switched gears to fast teal that humbled everyone, and settled into deer blinds where does grazed within bow range while the mature bucks played the long game. Between hunts we warmed up under an old covered bridge, swapped stories, and leaned on the small-town magic where friends appear just when you need a spare set of hands.
The moments that made it: a German shorthaired pointer muscling through thorns like it’s his job; teal ripping the horizon and teaching tough lessons about lead, target focus, and low light; and a first-bear story that will live forever. Phoenix, twelve years old, shouldered a 6.5, waited on a clean lane, and made a perfect shot. We tracked a short distance and found him twenty yards away. Clean setup, calm trigger, high-fives all around. Later, the beagles sang through the timber as snowshoe hare looped back on quiet feet, turning a three-pound rabbit into a heart-thumping event.
Deer hunters will nod at the familiar twist: we held out for target bucks, stacked sightings of smaller racks and six-pack groups of does, then watched trail cams light up the evening our guests headed home. That’s why we scout hard, place blinds to manage wind and scent, and let food plots do their work. We also talk teal tactics, pheasant realities in New Brunswick’s young season, and why hounds—from coon dogs to beagles—can turn a slow day into a great night.
Want more of this energy? We’re building toward expanded hunts—spring bear, whitetails, ducks, pheasants, and rabbit days—and listeners will get first dibs and a break on price. Hit play, ride along for the stories and tactics, then subscribe, share with your hunting crew, and leave a review to help us grow. What hunt should we guide for you next?
