  Hunting Moose
(Zones 2, 3 and a portion of 6)


Our lodge is located in zone 3, with easy access to zone 2 and a portion of zone 6. Moose are plentiful with unlimited forage in logging areas and average from 700-900 pounds. Trophy bulls weighing over 1000 pounds have been harvested by hunters staying at Fish River Lodge. We know many areas where hunters can travel without running into too much traffic and there are hundreds of miles of logging roads on which to drive. Bring along a Maine Atlas & Gazetteer so we can show you the areas where moose have been seen. In addition, the Fish River thoroughfares provide adventuresome hunters an opportunity to hunt moose from a canoe!

For those who prefer full guide service and "no worries" before, during and after the hunt, we offer an all inclusive huntÉlodging, meals, guide, transportation, and caping trophy animals.

In between the "do it yourself" and "all inclusive" hunts are various combinations of daily meals and guide services available so you can customize your hunt to suit your needs.

Moose hunters enjoying early-week success during the September hunt might want to bring along fishing gear. Fall brook trout and landlocked salmon fishing on Eagle Lake is superb! Those finding success early in the week during the October hunt may choose to take advantage of excellent grouse and duck hunting opportunities over our German shorthaired pointers.

We suggest that hunters (not using a guide) arrive early Sunday in order to spend time scouting the areas around camp. We have many areas where hunters can travel without running into too much traffic. We suggest that a hunter bring a Maine Atlas & Gazetteer so that we can show the areas where moose have been seen.
