Turr Hunting
Information
All hunters must purchase and be in possession of a Migratory Game Bird Hunting Permit and a Habitat Conservation Stamp while hunting murres. This hunt is only open to residents of Newfoundland and Labrador. Murres are the only migratory bird that can be legally hunted from a power boat. Any occupant of a boat who shoots or retrieves murres, or anyone who operates a boat to pursue murres, is hunting as defined in the Migratory Birds Regulations and is required to hold a Migratory Game Bird Hunting Permit.
In Newfoundland and Labrador, non-toxic shot must be used to hunt migratory birds, except for murres (turrs). For those birds still hunted with lead shot, remove the lead shot before cooking whenever possible in order to reduce your exposure to contaminants.

Turr numbers are defiantly down and will continue to do so , 2 days ago there was almost 70 boats out between Argentia and placentia. If this pressure continues on one small area we won't have to talk about it anymore soon anyway. Something has to be done about this either a very short season so it only limits it to a few days or reduced bag limit to reduce amount taken.

How is everyone doing with the turrs? Would. You say there are more or less this year than in other years?

Needs a bit of dirty weather to bring the birds in handy. To civil up to now.

Hardly worth it. Good thing the price of fuel has eased up somewhat.

We were out from Argentia a few days ago and got into the birds well outside on the southern end of Merasheen Bank toward St. Brides. Burned almost four tanks of gas. Not much inside.

Few birds around placentia, few around St Mary's Bay but they are off a good ways.
Stay safe. Zone 4 is closed.
