BEAR HUNTS

Bears over bait takes place in September. We operate 4 Guided Self-Service Tent Camps each in its own bearhunting world. Each camp consist of a platformed, internally steel framed 12x14 Colorado canvas walltent set-up for 4 hunters. Two 12x14 tents for larger groups. Bunks, table, lighting, fullsize gasburner stove, pots/pans kit, utensils, paper products, water barrel, outhouse & gamepole are supplied. Streams are in close proximity as well for dishes and washing up. Each camp has it's own leased township hunting area with alternate baitlines. We continue to do all the baiting, all you need to do is drive yourselves to/from the baits for the hunt, which most guys prefer anyway. This eliminates any waiting for pick-ups when tagged out early in the day or if extreme weather forces you off stand early. Tentcamps are centrally located in your township for ease and efficiency when hunting different baitlines. Guides will check in at your camp each night after your hunt to follow up and handle bears from bloodtrailing, hauling it out, to skinning to the freezer. They will also check in frequently to touch base. 2009 Hunts are $900 per hunter or $800 Buddy-Plan when booking 3+!!
Maine has the highest population of Blackies in the Eastern states and the past few years have been remarkable. Our vast, rugged wilderness and lack of "human population" have made this possible.
Our exclusive 5 Township baiting grounds are in prime Maine Bear Country and our numerous baitlines receive heavy bear traffic to assure a memorable Black Bear hunt. We bait for 3 months with a variety of red meat & meat fats soaked in greases and of course the sweets keep the Big Bears tending the baits. Our goodies ranging from beaver "soup de' jour" to our barrels of honey,chocolate,licorice,coconut and other goodies have them fighting for the free meal. We truck in 80,000# a year. Sites are in strategic locations to give Bears all they need in the environment so to limit their travel. We have baiting leases to some of the top Bear Country in the entire East. Very vast woodlands with a very healthy Bear population make for excellent hunting.
Our baits are set up for bowhunters and firearms hunters. Stands are placed at various ranges from 8-10 yards for traditional bow shooters, 20 for compounds and upto 50 yards for firearm hunters. Great care is taken to provide the best shooting angles and shots. Left/right handed shooting is taken into consideration as well.
Most all our hunters have sightings/occurences with bears. Hunters who pay attention and heed advice given do well. Come and see why we call them the "black ghosts" of the North. We properly care for your trophy, skin, quarter and freeze until your departure.
Tags are guaranteed over the counter and available upon arrival or online. Non-Resident firearms license is $102 + $67 Bear Permit. Bowhunters get away a little cheaper at $62 + $67.
