BLACK BEAR HUNTING IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA WITH HUNT N IT OUTFITTERS
SPRING AND FALL CANADA BLACK BEAR HUNTS
Our Spring and Fall Black Bear Hunts will take you into the backwoods of Northern New Brunswick. Access to stands can be by vehicle or ATV through some of the most spectacular country side in the Appalachian Mountains. Spring baits are established as soon as the winter break up has taken place and the woods can be accessed and Fall baits are started in Mid August. All bait sites are monitored with trail cameras and you will be put into stands with the best activity. Using baited sites, it allows you to have the time to determine the size of bears and the sex of the bears (both boars and sows can be harvested as long as the sow does not have any cubs). Prior to hitting the stands Kevin will go over with you some fundamental ways of determining the weight of bears. Archery Stands will be set at 15 to 30 yards from the bait site, rifle/ muzzle loader will be set 30 to 60 yards in both cases depending on terrain and cover. Both tree stands and ground blinds are utilized.
During the mornings hunters have access to our creeks, brooks and the St John River for fishing, the St John River has world class SmallMouth Bass and provides for some great action. Non resident angling licenses are available online and can be issued right at the camp.
