Phil from Maine

Hi all, I just want to let those interested know that Maine now has a new Black Bear Record.. The record for black bear here is now standing at 699lbs. I will put a pic up when I get my desk top computer up and running again. No it was not me that shot it. But, it is a monster..

I am not 100% sure where the guy was from. But, yes it surely is a beast. I wouldn't want to meet up with it without a gun. If I can borrow this computer tonight I will try and get the pic up. Other than that I prolly can't until mid next week.

The state of Maine allows people from Pennsylvania to hunt there

The guy was on a guided hunt in Maine but he lives in PA.

Big bear, that size is common here in NJ

and in your western neighboring state

The reason they get so big in PA is because we have a joke of a season. 3 days in late November with no dogs or bait.

Maine actually hunts their bears. For a bear to get that big with far more being shot is pretty amazing. That boy avoided a lot of hunters as he raided all those donut barrels He was probably 100% nocturnal until he got greedy that day.

You think PA is a joke try this one from NJ.....Bear season is the first full week of December which is our 6 day shotgun deer hunt
