Maine is full of guides and what area would make a difference. Some parts of the states has alot of bears and other parts do not. For instance
southern Maine has some bears while northern Maine has a quite a few,
and the eastern Maine they are a problem as the population just keeps growing. So the first thing is to decide where you are going to be hunting them at.

And legg hold traps ? I'm not sure where that idea came from. How ever Maine has a trapping season on bears and
they are only allowed one per year. With a very limited number of bear trappers you would be hard pressed to find
someone trapping them for somebody else to shoot. And even then if they were found out about they wouldn't be hunting and trapping for quite a while.
