Review Highlights

Black Moose Outposts has strong positive feedback, with guests consistently rating their experiences at the highest level. The outfitter attracts repeat visitors, and at least one reviewer returns annually. Guests both fish and hunt here, so the operation goes beyond angling.

Guests praise the quality of the fishing, particularly for pike, and one repeat visitor reports consistently larger catches over multiple trips. Guests describe the cabins as cozy and the scenery as beautiful. One first-time moose hunter reported a successful, well-organized hunt, with a bull taken on day four and the meat flown out promptly the following morning. The outfitter handles logistics competently in a remote fly-in setting.

No guest has left negative feedback. The destination suits anglers seeking trophy pike on repeat visits, and hunters pursuing their first or early moose hunts in a fly-in wilderness setting. It fits those who are comfortable with remote travel and want a self-guided or lightly guided outdoor experience.

Viking Outposts in Red Lake

Says Viking Outposts has been in business forever and knows what it's doing. His group spent two weeks at the Telescope Lake outpost, with a great cabin and very good walleye but small pike. The outfitter even made an emergency supply run for them, and he calls them terrific outfitters.
