Title: Alberta wolf outfitter?
Post by: aer212 on May 03, 2010, 05:52:16 PM: Anyone know of a good guide for wolf hunting in Alberta? Looking at going there this winter and would like to start picking through who is good or not. Searched for Alberta wolf hunts on google and there is so many I don't know where to start.

Post by: boneaddict on May 03, 2010, 05:57:31 PM: They publish it yearly, much like Wyoming does, but its MUCH bigger and MUCH nicer.

Post by: aer212 on May 03, 2010, 06:03:11 PM: How do you pick through them and decide who to go with? I'm kind of looking for some names of outfitters that some members have gone with. So that they can say, absolutely I recommend them, I had a great time and killed x or xx amount of wolves.

Post by: bearpaw on May 03, 2010, 06:30:54 PM: I don't know them, but if you listen closely to the guy, you can tell he knows what he is doing, this success is nothing new, he has had lots of success and is just documenting the season. :twocents:

I would love to go with them myself, especially since it would be a trapping adventure.

From reliable sources I also know that there are people in Idaho pushing for wolf trapping... :twocents:

Do you know of any outfitters around there? I either have to go with a guide or be a guest invite of someone who lives there.
