The Esquif Heron canoe is a quiet, stable, and highly versatile canoe built for anglers, hunters, and paddlers who want dependable performance on lakes and rivers. Designed as a true multi-purpose canoe, the Heron offers excellent load capacity while remaining light and easy to handle—perfect for carrying fishing gear, decoys, camping supplies, or a full day’s worth of adventure. Its balanced hull provides reassuring stability for casting, standing, and moving around in the boat with confidence.

One of the Heron’s standout features is its foam core hull, which helps insulate you from cold water and delivers a noticeably quieter ride—ideal for sneaking into secluded fishing spots or approaching wildlife without spooking it. The design works equally well with a paddle or a small motor, giving you the flexibility to travel efficiently or quietly, depending on the day’s mission.

Available at Wilderness Supply in Winnipeg and Thunder Bay, the Esquif Heron is the go-to fishing and hunting canoe for paddlers in Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario who want stability, stealth, and all-around versatility in one rugged, reliable boat.
