Here are a couple pics of a spring hunt I just got back from. There weren't any scales at the lodge we were at, but I would guess the bear was 150-175lbs. The guide said it was over 200lbs but I think he was full of it. We were in New Brunswick with Twin Pines Lodge. We had a great hunt and met some great people.

Congratulations on the bear Lab! But I have to ask, is the bear expecting a call?

I showed up in camp just intime to see Labbs bear. He called it right in something I have never been lucky enough to do.

The next day Nate and I headed south to Atlantic Adventures. We had two great days of hunting here are the photos. Mine dreessed about 200lb and Nates was about 30 lb heavier. The spring is a great time to go bear hunting. Getts my fired up for this fall here.

We are headed down to SC Auguest 10 to hog hunt and then deer hunt on opening day (Aug 15). Then it is back to Maine for 3 weeks of bear hunting. We still have openings and room for a few more hunters in SC. Come on if you want.

:lol: :lol: Believe it or not, I called that bear in with the Phantom Bear Call made by Extreme Dimensions. The bear up there were extremely vocal so I thought I would try it. I used a "sow in heat" call and the bear circled around and stepped into the road. I had never heard of calling bear before but it seemed to work.

The other divice is a Thermocel. Unbelievable on mosquitos. We could have sat in the tree with shorts and t-shirts on and not have a single mosquito bite. They don't work so great on black flies though. I would have gone crazy up there with the mosquitos if it wasn't for the Thermocel.
