I have just been informed that i am going on a bear hunt this August 20-28 in Kirkland lake Ontario. it kind of fell in my lap with a smoking hot deal. i have never done it before. it is a fully guided hunt all inclusive. my question to those who know about it or have done it what are the necessities that i need to bring with me? such as gear and other misc. items.

Take a Thermacell!!!

Make sure you don't have any DWI's or whatever they are called these days on your recordand yes a thermacell with some reloads. Study bear pictures and what features a big bear has. So many first timers as well as experienced bear hunters have trouble telling bear size and end up shooting booboos the size of dogs. Depending on what they have for bait will barrels or stumps around and suchmake sure you ask your guide for a good comparison reference to judge the bear size when they are around the bait. WCL

Call or email the guide od outfitter, they'll send you u a complete list of what they think you'll need.

Good advice above, Have fun and yes I hear a Thermacell is required. Bugs will carry you away up there.

thanks guys i never thought of contacting the outfitter. i will do that and see what they say.

I dont no what u shld take but i no id like to go on that bear hunt

thanks for the input i just bought a thermacell and i bought some slick trick magnums to bring down the beast.

anything else from those who might of found themselves wanting while at bear camp at some point.

Good Luck on your Bear hunt!

It looks like 2010 will find me chasing Bruins again
