Quebec Rut...

[mustad]

Anybody hunting whitetail deer in southern Quebec (Sherbrooke area)? Are you seeing signs of the rut starting yet? I've seen a little bit, but seems to be slow going.

Cheers,

Thanks Heinz... unfortunately that's black powder for us in zone 6 (doe only). Fortunately though I'll be on Anticosti Island from the 19 - 22. I also have a license in NH. I think I'll cruise down to northern NH at the end of the month depending on how things go here and on Anticosti.

Cheers,

hello again ..u got the perfect date for hunting white tail's on ANTICOSTIE ISLAND ..u won't see any female ,they are all hideing from the buck's ..i was there 5 times . we always went to RIVIER BELL nice place .10 of my friend's were down there ,they came back the 6 of nov.

Yeah, I can't wait... I'm a little concerned that we're there right after the full moon, but with the population they have; the fact that man is the only predator for the deer; I can't imagine the full moon will have that much of an effect on their movement...

This is my 2nd trip, both to Ste Marie... I wouldn't mind finding another camp next year though, I heard Renard is a great camp as well.

Cheers,

Heinz,

I looked on the map and couldn't find Rivier Bell or rivier cloche. Where is it? Is it part of Sepaq or another outfitter?

Cheers,
