THE BEAR HUNT IS ON!!!!!

Featured Replies

I don't hunt, so the bear hunt doesn't excite me too much, but if they have a concurrent 6-day for the idiots who feed and attract them into residential neighborhoods, calling them "harmless balls of fur" and "woodland dolphins", I may pay for that stamp.

What are we going to be allowed to hunt them with?

pointed sticks.

What are we going to be allowed to hunt them with?

 

Shotgun and probably muzzleloader just like deer. I doubt there will be a bow. No rifle as rifle is illegal to hunt with in NJ unless its a .22 and do I need to even mention that :)

 

This makes me excited, I need a new area rug for my room :lol:

Ok Daniel Boone...

I plan on staying in my car and jacking the bears with a tire iron when they come up to me.

 

If you guys remember that show "Pimp my ride" They made that cop car with a doughnut maker in it, I was thinking of picking up one of those as a 'bait car'...

 

No but in all seriousness, I am very excited and am hoping to get me a nice jacket made this winter...

I plan on using the 11-87 with scope and slugs. To be honest, this should be a fairly successful hunt as there are so many bears now and they are so bold.

 

Here is the report from the fish and game council...

What counties or zones will bear hunting be allowed?

 

 

I would assume all. But you'll have better luck with up north like sussex etc.

Man, Bears are no joke. Are you guys talking 3" magnum slugs or 2.75" is fine?

 

I dunno, I don't hunt but I think I'd want the biggest boom I could legally bring for a frikken bear! :lol:

We're not out of the woods yet with this issue. They have to hold public hearings so the animal lover tree hugging wackos get their say. They are going to have to face facts and come to realize that the methods they came up with these last 2 or 3 years did not work and in fact made the population jump. Trash will always be around and bears will find it. The population is just getting out of hand and I am glad the state had outside people to confirm the bear population numbers. I am sick and tired of these Sierra Club members criticizing the Fish and Game (DEP) on all their efforts. Sierra Club is a political environmental organization that gets nothing done. The Fish and Game have done more conservation than any other bear loving group.

I tend not to like to hunt apex predators out of respect but I need a robe.

 

I need a rug near the fireplace.

I may just skin it and wear it with the head as a hat and then sneak up on my 4 & 6 year olds as they sleep. Ahhh, good times.

The bear will hunt you lol... better pack some stopping power..

You can hunt them with 2 3/4 slugs, and I believe this will pass with no worries, as the anti bear hunters have no clout...it would be like trying to pass one gun a month now...wouldnt happen..so in my opinion, a bear hunt will go through.
