Zone #1 is my first choice. Ive seen the largest amount of moose in that area. Doesn't seem to be as much competition in that area like some of the southern zones.

Don't put in for the November seasons.The zones that these permits are for have lower #s of moose and less moose habitat. The moose aren't responsive to calling during this time and your chances of getting into bow range would be very small.
were it worth the trouble? Huh? What trouble?

Dusty, Yes you have to stop and pay a daily and nightly gate fee. They take your plate number. I guide moose hunters in zones 3,6,5, mostly. We live on the edge of the north maine woods in farm country. Great moose hunting! Non residents take 10% of the tags per year. Please let me know if you have anyother questions!

It's true that Eldon is booked for a few years but that has to do with his ability to get tags. If you are lucky enough to get a permit in his area he can guide you. He  has a number of excellent guides that work with him (check out the website). Again, if you draw a tag for his area you can arrange for him to guide you. If you get drawn call him immediately.

Eldon worked his butt off for me....I didn't get a moose but that was my fault 8-(
I've never seen a guy put in more effort than he did that week and obviously, the weeks leading up to my hunt.
He's a PBS Regular and a deadly longbow shooter. He knows what it takes.

Here is what Cory Mattson has to say about Eldon...something to think about...

"Friends, Eldon is the hardest working, no excuses, never give up outfitter there is. He runs excellent success on his bear hunts which are accessible and affordable to most bowhunters no matter what yourskill level is. Eldon's moose hunts are the best value and the best hunting there is. Many people do not realize this but you will see at least five times more moose on your hunt for moose with Eldon, than you would on any other Canadian or Alaskan moose hunt of equal time length. Eldons level of woodsmanship and what he brings to a hunt will make you a better bowhunter."

What is the price for one of Eldon's guaranteed tags? What about the cost just to guide for someone who draws a tag? Didn't see any pricing on his website.


Maine Guide,

Thanks for posting up! I can't think of any other questions currently but I'll PM you if I do.
