The Maine Black Bear is a cunning and elusive creature, with keen eyesight and an extraordinary sense of smell—seven times stronger than a bloodhound’s. Typically reclusive, these bears ramp up their foraging in the fall, driven by a seasonal shift in metabolism. This heightened activity coincides perfectly with Maine’s fall hunting season, creating prime conditions for hunters. Male black bears can range from 120 to 600 pounds during this time, offering an incredible trophy opportunity. At Grand Lake Hunt, we’ll prepare the perfect setting for your successful black bear hunt—now it’s your time to complete the adventure.
