Black Bear Hunting
Maine trophy bear hunting success begins when you choose the location of your hunt. And Northern Maine has the largest black bear population in North America and is growing every year. Aroostook County is known for its endless miles of primeval forest and shadowy bogs which lure hunters from all over the world in their quest for that all time trophy bear! Hunting success continues when you choose your Outfitter. Homestead Lodge wants you to go home with the bear trophy of your dreams and Master Guides John and Gloria have the knowledge, skill, and experience to make it happen. We do not just open a camp for the Maine bear hunting season. We bait every day for 30 days before the season opens.

Four Week Season generally the last week of August into September.

Maine trophy bear hunters using bow, rifle, slug gun, muzzle loaders, hand guns, or cameras have equal opportunity to harvest the Trophy Black Bear of a lifetime due largely to our individually set up bait sites and continual efforts. LandOwner Regulations require separation by township and road system of commercial Outfitters and ½ mile between sites. Homestead Lodge has a MINIMUM of 1 mile between sites and we lease enough ground that we can provide not only a new site for each hunter each week, but a whole new area each week for a whole new opening week each week!

BUT, remember. No matter how much effort and expertise we contribute to your hunt, the Black Bear is unlike any other game you have ever hunted. Unlike deer hunting, you will be hunting a predator who will be hunting your bait site. And when hit, the black bear will not lie down and bleed out like a deer. But rather, will hide so you will not find him until you can smell it. Or run until he dies - which could be 10 to 20 miles. Therefore patience and care should be given to a precision killing shot.

Homestead Lodge encourages the continuation of our hunting heritage with double size tree stands for hunting mentors and male or female students. And will go the extra to ensure that their stay is a wholesome experience and their Maine black bear hunt successful. Notes: When you book a bear hunt with us the confirmation of your deposit will be a Homestead Lodge Client Questionnaire. This is for information to set up your individual bait site, as well as all pertinent medical information to ensure you have a safe stay with us, and personal preferences needed to enjoy your time with us as much as possible.
