Very cool.- beautiful bear. Thank god we can still trap bears in Maine. As long as we stick together we’ll be able to beat the anti’s back. I’ve seen 2 giants come out of the woods this year- one just under 500 and one right around 530!

That looked like a heck of a time brother. What a blast. My heart was pounding, like as if it were me walking up to it, when you was walking up to it. Then you said it's HUGE!!! Thanks for taking us along Alan. I would have never seen a bear trapped like that, if not for all your hard work. I for one, really appreciate ya brother.

Nice seeing bear trapping. Amazing how easy that trap set. Loved seeing you being so excited thats what its all about. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this video, great demo! I came into the bear trapping world around 2014. As we are only aloud to use foot cable restraints and cage style traps. It's nice to see the old school way. especially with one of the best bear trappers in this state, Orin, he's one hell of a guy, with alot of great info and sells some of the best bait.

Awesome video Allen !! Congrats! It sure was a huge black bear. I caught one this year 2022 Sept.5 in Maine, Bridgeton. I used a tube style with a leg snare. My bear was a boat also. It weighed 440 ! It sure was a trip of my life. What a dreidel it gave me when I saw it in the snare. I know just the way you felt. Tim Cote Guide service.

Thanks for showing this! Very awesome!

Bear trapping is still legal here in maine, I’ll be starting my trapping journey this coming September

Cool Bear, Congratulations 👍

I probably missed it but where was this bear caught?

There are two more countries in North America.... and it isn't outlawed in Canada

Cool video. But that's the smallest 300lb bear I have ever seen lol

That’s a big catch for a foothold trap, but that was a big old trap too.

18 years changes all of us !!! So Cool of a 🪤 trap It just soooo happens that our family just had Bear 🐻 tenderloin Stew 🍲😋😋

You can still legally trap bears in Maine

I bet that got your heart rate up. Nice catch. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

My guy.... This was 6 years ago? We still trap bear in Maine. Why make such a claim as one of the last legally trapped bears?

Even if it was one of the last with a foothold it's not one of the last trapped.

What kind of trap are you using?brand and size?thanks

ILLEGAL now-a-days! Hand_Made from a Maine resident back in 2005

sad in calif no traps for years many people have put out poison bad sad you need to protect live stock and people many times its government pepole

according to the maine government website you can still take one bear by hunting one by trapping each year as of 2022.

Yea it takes a real man to kill something from 200 yds away with a rifle you flaming douche. Way more skill and knowledge is involved in trapping.
