Old Vermilion Trail is looking for Pheasant Hunting Guides with trained upland bird dogs for the 2026 fall pheasant hunting season.

Guides have the option of working mornings and/or afternoons. Hunts occur Tuesday thru Sunday (closed Monday). Morning hunt hours are 7:30 am to 11:30 am, and the afternoon hunt hours are 11:45 am to 4:00 pm. A minimum availability of 3 to 4 hunts per week is preferred. Guides must be dependable and punctual.

September 19th start date running thru Thanksgiving or as weather allows.

Rate of pay is $140 per guided hunt plus tips.

This is an outstanding opportunity for you and your dog to gain valuable field experience. Our guides and their dogs will encounter more birds in just two months than most dogs would see in a lifetime.

If you are interested in this position, call Burt Schweiger at 218-428-3324 or 218-721-3804 for more information, or send an email with your name and phone number to [email protected] and I will have Burt contact you.
