Murre (turr) hunters:


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.

in the rules and reg it says you are allowed 20 per day and 40 in your possesion per person,if you have three guys in a boat does that mean your allowed 60 turrs for that day,or is it 40.

Do you bottle them? I loves them bottled but it takes a good few to make up a bottle. You only get the brest and legs.
Usually cooks 5 for a meal, 2 for Pete, 2 for me and 1 for father. This is our first year with a picker. What a difference in the cooked bird. Never eat a skinned one again.

Proper thing. I haven't noticed any boats making 2 trips but then again it almost dark by the time we get in.
I haven't noticed any big numbers of boats or heard of any the couple.trips we made.
Never noticed any nails or screws either this year but my young fella ruined 2 tires on something sharp in Placentia. Had help from a few locals, God Love them really helped us out of a jam.
