Default RE: Anyone ever hunted bear in Maine?

Been so long since I did I forgot where it was without looking at a map but it was past mid state. We hunted over baits and thatincluded horses and cows that farmers donated to the guide as long as he picked them up. Awful. If I remember right we took 6 bear out of 15 hunters. Saw lots of moose. Evening hunts only, don't know if the guide was lazy or if it wasn't productive to hunt mornings. Bugs are a pain in the ass also so be prepaired. Funny thing is no bear was taken off of a horse or cow bait. If your stand was downwind of such bait it would be a long stinky sit. Good luck on your hunt.
