Fantastic moose hunt….and still going strong

We find ourselves in the middle of the 2009 moose hunting season.  It has truly been a fantastic hunt with great success.  Here is a picture of our very first moose of the season.

First moose for Hearst Air's 2009 Season

With cool nights and crisp mornings, the rut is on full force. We look forward to seeing who will get up to 64″ this year.

 

We will keep you posted of course. HAPPY HUNTING!!!

Fly-in Fishing is Still Alive

It’s now the month of August and we find ourselves very busy with fishing trips, charters and canoe expeditions.  We are so appreciative of all those who choose to visit our big backyard and allow Hearst Air to be part of their vacations.  In these tough economic times, it’s great to see that people are still into fishing and flying in to beautiful places.

The fisheries are truly confused this year with the weather the way it is.  We had a late, but great start to the walleye season….many said it was their best trip ever after flying in with us for 5-10 years now.  When the cold weather hit, the fishing was definitely not at it’s greatest but everyone still really enjoyed their time and had good fishing with the company they brought.  Many trophy pike were caught and I’m sure the fishing stories will live on forever.  Once our finned friends got used to the fact the cold and rain was sticking around, they got back to the business doing the thing they do best….giving people a trip of a lifetime. The walleye are biting viciously and the pike and big and abundant.  Again, we’ve heard some long time guests saying “It has to be the best week ever!”  It sure is great to hear when you know they have always had a great trip for so long.

So all in all, despite the rain, the wind and cold….the north is still proving itself to be a GREAT FLY-IN FISHING DESTINATION.

Spring has Sprung

Here we are, June 10th and finally seeing a little sunshine. I should be updating the site more often so I’ll really get on that one.  We’ve had a couple of weeks of fishing to enjoy and everyone has been very happy.  It definitely has been a slow start but the fish are biting and everyone is smiling.

Biggest pike caught so far? 47 inches and 33 inches for walleye. Both caught at Pym Island on the Attawapiskat river. Napken had a great start aswell with many large fish…and of course the biggest ones ended up a fishing story and never made it in the boat.

We’re extremely appreciative of the business we have this year. It’s a tough year for everyone and I’m glad to see that the yearly fishing trips are not being put aside. 

Take advantage of last minute specials and call in for a father /son trip, or maybe a family trip to create great memories with the kids, mom and why not the grandparents too!

As always, we’re here to help make your summer special, please call and we’ll HOOK you up!

Where is Spring??

Well it’s raining, snowing and there’s still ice on Carey Lake. Where is Spring? I sure hope you are all having better weather than us. 

We’re anxious, ready to go and really  looking forward to a great season.  Many of you have been with us before and we’ll have the pleasure of meeting new faces as well.  As always,  it will be a great time to have you all visiting our big backyard.

With spring comes new life and we’re waiting patiently to meet our newest addtion to the family this week. Mike’s wife Myriam is due any day now….another boy? a girl? we don’t know. Whatever comes will be welcomed with open arms and a fishing rod.

Starting the new year with dreams of a Trophy Catch!

It’s that time of year again.  Time for resolutions, thinking about what we’ve done in the past year and thinking about what we didn’t get to do in the past year.  Our lives are busy, our lives go by fast and we can’t keep putting our dreams aside.

How many times have you thoughts of taking a trip with the guys?  Wouldn’t you like to take that father and son trip you know he’ll remember for the rest of his life? Well it’s time. It’s time to give us a call and book a wilderness vacation with Hearst Air Service and join those who take the time for fun and unforgettable experiences.

There are many options for you.  All of Hearst Air’s trips are into remote fly-in lakes only. These lakes are host to one cabin only and it’s all yours for the duration of your stay.  The fishing is fantastic, the hunting is successful, the canoeing is gratifying.  Have a look at what we have to offer.  Whatever type of vacation you are looking for, just ask and we will work hard to get you into the best fisheries Northern Ontario has to offer.
