hunting bears in new brunswick

    The last time i went out hunting with dad was on our bear hunting trip to New Brunswick canada.  It was a spring bear hunt and it was a gift for my 21st birthday.    i stuck out the first day covered in may flies and being scared out of my mind in a thick pine forest all alone with a barrel loaded with donuts and soda syrup.  It was dark all around me and the only thing illuminated was the barrel in the twilight...well truth be told i was fidgety and probly scared any bear withing a mile of me away.  After 4 days of frustration i was moved to this big stand next to a swamp that was a big platform that could sit 2 or more people.it was funny to look back and see my dad with a sore back laying down behind me trying to ease the pain of his achy back.  when the bear finally came by he was there with a camcorder recording the whole thing.  He wasnt prepared for the shot i fired and it looked like the blair witch hunting project. I ended up taking a 130 lb spring bear making my dad as proud as ive ever seen him. i wish i could have seen him and christine on her hunting trip with him.
