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.

There's only been a handful of days that the wind has been fit. We haven't got out since like Nov 27 in Trinty Bay.

We were out from Bay De Verde when the season opened and had our quota of 60 birds in a couple of hours.

We went out of Ferryland on the 10th. Last day for that area it's closed now until February 2nd. All kinds of birds there last year. You had to go off a bit but they were there. We were 20 mile off and nothing. We managed to get a few on new years day in St Mary's but we had to almost out of the bay to get those.
I've spoken to a few people that went out in placentia bay, one boat had 8, another 10 and oguy told me they had 40.
Birds are not plentiful like last year.
I did hear there was a few in Trinity Bay earlier in the year. The weather ain't helping.

Where did you launch your boat Peter? A lot of guys got their birds for the year earlier on. Plenty of bait in the bays with an abundance of beel fish all along the NE coast.

St. Mary's Bay. The birds were a long way out. We were out almost to the end of the bay.
