Pennsylvania bear hunt report
« on: November 30, 2003, 08:24:22 AM »
:D Hi bear hunters.
The Pa bear hunt got underway on the 24th of Nov.We have a 3 day season here.Not a huge bear population at about 15,000 but a state where we grow big-uns.After 3 days the preliminary report has 10 bear over 600 lbs and 2 over 700 lbs.Lycoming county is tops so far with over 170 bear.The largest was killed near Weatherly,Pa.I have a couple of pics of bear that were taken at the check station on the first day.Will try to post them when my gf shows me how.Good luck and good huntin! :D

Sounds like a great hunt, if short. Mine was also short, but that was due to my own time constraints. Saw/got nothing. Lotsa sign at the deer camp, but saw nothing big and black there too.

Man, I'd love to have 700 pounders here.....I know we have a few, but all we ever see are the 50-400 lb kind....And my hounds love those....

:grin: There were 3 bear taken in the extended season that weighed over 800 lbs.The largest taken was 16 years old and weighed over 830 lbs.The total kill was only 5 less than last year,and about 85 less than the record kill in 2000.Word has it that there is a larger bear that hasn't bee nkilled yet and is supposed to be 22 years old now :eek: He sure knows where to hide when the shooting starts!
