Once you've been black bear hunting with Lightning D Outfitters in Northern Alberta you won't want to hunt anywhere else.
Our baited hunts use select hunting locations scouted by Lyle every season. We utilize tree stands or hunt from ground positions depending on which we feel will be the best method for your success. We offer both archery and rifle hunts.
This is a great area and we are taking some quality trophy bears each season.
We hunt over baits which has proven to be very successful for archery, rifle or black powder hunters.
Most of the archery stands are between 15-25 yards and most rifle shots are around 20-50 yards. We use ground blinds in some areas. Full camouflage is required for the archery hunters and it is better for all hunters. Although we are not an archery only outfit, we meet all the needs of archery hunters.
We have 40 bait sites and only 4 hunters in camp so you will get quality opportunities. The bait we use is the very best. Along with many other baits we extensively use beaver for the best possible results.
We take a maximum of 4 hunters at a time for a 6 day hunt.
We have four 6 Day hunts avaliable. Our season starts at in the first week of May and concludes in the last week of the month.
