Firearm Hunting for Whitetail Deer in New Canton, IL

Eagle Lakes Outfitters offers some of the country’s finest whitetail deer firearm hunting in Pike County, IL. Illinois is unique because it allows the hunter to choose between  shotgun with slugs, a muzzleloader or a rifle but rifles are caliber and cartridge specific. This provides an opportunity for a close encounter with a trophy of a lifetime.

All hunting is done from either ground blinds or stands, and drives are strictly prohibited on our ground. Additionally, all stands are set up with the archer in mind. This affords the firearm hunter with excellent shot opportunities. All hunts begin with the hunter arriving the day before the hunt after 12:00 p.m.

Note: The first three days of the gun season are usually set for the weekend before Thanksgiving. Meanwhile, the four-day hunt is set for the second weekend after Thanksgiving, with the muzzleloader-only hunt being the weekend immediately following the second shotgun season.

Certain weeks are currently booked. Please call for availability.
