Hunting In Maine

   Welcome to "Hunting Camp". We are a bunch of guys who like to hunt, fish, and share stories and information about hunting. Some hunters will never give up their favorite hunting spots but we don't feel that way. There is no question that our favorite hunting spot is Maine. Whether you hunt in Maine or somewhere else, hunting is hunting and "Hunting Camp' is Hunting Camp.

Whether it's deer, turkey, moose, bear, pheasant, coyotes, or whatever, we have experienced with some degree of success, hunting these animals. Mostly it's to put food on the table but also for the sport or to eliminate varmints.

Most Maine hunting is just that- hunting. With thick rugged forests, many miles of hunting area, and harsh winters reducing the numbers, it makes for large deer and moose but requires good hunting skills or a lot of luck.

You won't see deer running back & forth to agricultural farm lands in herds. You will probably have to work hard for your success, however, you still can find areas to use tree stands and blinds. Field hunting is usually very good and is quite popular. The hard part is finding a field that's not already being watched by several other people.

Maine does produce some of the largest whitetails you'll find anywhere. Moose permits are chosen by lottery so you have to get lucky to go moose hunting. It can take years before your name gets drawn. So come on in and check us out. We hope you like our site. Thanks for stopping by and please come again.

Public Informational Meeting To Discuss The 2010 Moose Hunting Season

The Wildlife Division of the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife will conduct a public informational meeting to discuss the 2010 moose hunting season and moose management options for Wildlife Management Districts 2, 3, 6, and 11. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, September 9, at the Department’s regional office on Station Street in Ashland, beginning at 6:30 p.m.

During the last session of the Legislature, the Joint Standing Committee on Inland Fisheries & Wildlife enacted L.D. 929, Resolve, Regarding the Classification of Wildlife Management District 2. This Resolve directed the Department to adopt rules that, for the purposes of moose hunting, WMD 2 would be managed the same as WMD 3.

At the informational meeting, the Department will discuss the requirements of L.D. 929. In addition, IF&W will take a broader look at moose hunting in WMDs 2, 3, 6, and 11 and consider 1) the Department’s existing moose population goals and objectives, 2) the number of moose hunting permits that the Department will allocate in 2010, and 3) the possibility of extending the moose hunting season from the current two week season to a three week season.

The public will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide its comments and ideas. The Department will use this public input to develop the rule governing the 2010 moose season in WMDs 2, 3, 6, and 11, including permit allocations and the length and timing of the hunting season.

State Agencies Partner with Angling Group to Combat Invasive Species

AUGUSTA – The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection have partnered with Fly Fishing in Maine (FFIM), a group dedicated to protecting Maine’s fisheries, to place three washing stations at popular Maine fisheries in an attempt to prevent the spreading of “didymo” -- an invasive species of algae -- to Maine’s rivers.

Two of the sites are on the Rapid River in western Maine, and the third is at the Route 35 bridge in Windham on the Presumpscot River.

“Perhaps the most serious threat to Maine’s fragile aquatic natural resources is the introduction of invasive fish, plants or other organisms. It’s imperative that we make every effort to prevent these introductions from occurring,” says John Boland, Fisheries Division Director for the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. “Fly Fishing in Maine deserves credit for facilitating this effort.”

There Is a Strong Contingent of Anti-Gun/Anti-Hunting People Who Would like Nothing Better Than To Ban Guns and Hunting In General. They Are Constantly Lobbying For This.

It Appears That President Obama Is Sympathetic To These Groups and Their Philosophies. Make Sure When These Bills and Efforts Arise, To Contact Your Maine State Representatives about How You Feel On The Issues That Affect Us Here In Maine and The United States.

I Am Sure That a Large Percentage of Americans Do Not Agree With These People. I Have Seen In The Past However, That These Special Interest Groups Are Sneaky and Somehow Get Things Passed Without The Majority of Americans Even Knowing About It. Let Your Representatives Know How You Feel.
