We got confirmation yesterday for our black bear hunt, we will be hunting May 25th to the 31st 2014 with Ocean side country outfitters. They have a very high success rate with spring bears, have several taken every year over 500 pounds and the camp record is 689 pounds. The outfitter stay at the lodge with you and he is one of the guides and she is the cook, the lodge is located right on the Atlantic ocean in the Notre Dame bay, included in the cost is trout and lobster fishing in the mornings and one morning a guided boat tour to see iceburgs and whales. Weather permitting there is also a clam and lobster boil on a small island for lunch, the outfitters motto is "come as a client, leave as a friend", We can hunt with bow or rifle we just need to let him know in advance so he can adjust stands accordingly, the other two in my group are definately using rifles but I'm still up in the air on which, I would really like to take a bear with my bow, I sent the outfitter an E-mail last night seeing if I could use my bow the first few days and if no bear then switch to my .308 for the last couple days. I plan on taking plenty of pics and depending on how we travel I may film my hunt.
