About this hunt
Your mornings are free to fish, take an ATV trail ride or just relax. After lunch, your guide will take
you to your hunt site, refresh the bait and settle you in. We’ll pick you up after legal light or when you
shoot a bear. Some hunters prefer to hunt the morning and evenings. If you wish to hunt all day, we
are flexible and will make any adjustments needed to ensure you have a fun and exciting hunt.
Preseason baiting, lodging and local transportation are all included. We’ll also drop you off and pick
you up from your hunt site. Your guide will provide field care and transport to the tagging station and
a game processor if applicable. We provide ready to hunt tree stand or ground blind bait sites
depending on your preference.

Success rate
Ultimately, success depends largely on the hunter. Discipline on stand, commitment to the hunt and
heeding advice from your guide will ensure the highest possibility of a successful outcome for your
hunt. We take great strides to ensure you have the opportunity to take a Maine black bear. From the
highest quality fresh bait to regular trail camera monitoring, we make every effort to ensure you have
a hunt of a lifetime. No ethical outfitter or guide service will guarantee success, but we can and do
guarantee you will be on an active bear site - proven with trail camera photos. We monitor
throughout the hunt and our clients get to see bears coming in to their sites in real time while in
camp. We make adjustments accordingly. Know this, if you can maintain hunting discipline at one of
our bear sites, your chances at taking a Maine black bear are very good.

The Lodge
Hunting camp is far more than a place to sleep when you aren’t on stand. It is a place of
camaraderie, union of spirit and legacy building. Reinert's Lodge boasts plenty of room for large
groups featuring two kitchens with appliances and a full bath on each level. A washer & dryer are
available onsite. Multiple wood stoves provide a comfortable, traditional hunting lodge feel. Enjoy the
spacious deck, cook on the grill and have a camp fire in the stone fire pit. All guided hunts include
lodging and meals on the American Plan.
Facilities: Wi-Fi / TV / Internet / Bathroom / In-suite shower / Fridge / Laundry / Mobile network
coverage / Electricity / Quad Biking
*The new Tucker Ridge Outdoors lodge is in progress. Depending on completion timeframe,
clients may lodge in our brand new facility instead of Reinert’s Lodge.

integrity and safety above all, so you’ll never have to worry about who you may find yourself in camp

Reviews
“John, Super father/son trip to your operation. Anyone who enjoys the outdoors should experience the "BIG
WOODS" of your area. FANTASTIC! Every expectation was met and exceeded for this trip. It would have been
great for that big doe that Stephen saw had antlers, even though he thought it was a cow moose at first. Big
is HUGE in the big woods! The two small black bear will be a great trophy for a lucky hunter next year.
Accommodations and night companionship at the lodge was great. Lasting relationship with folks that enjoy
the great outdoors is always an added benefit. A trip that Stephen and I will remember forever, thanks! As I
told you, I don't think you have seen the last of me!” – Jim R.
“Had a great time and experience, John will show you what you need to know and how to get the job done.

“Had an amazing time on my first trip to Maine, already can’t wait to go back. John will show you everything
you need know to be put in a position of success. He was very experienced and knowledgeable and is an all-
around great guy. The lodging was great along with other hunters there, this made for great times both in the
woods and after back at the club house. This was a great experience and I already can’t wait for my next
experience with Tucker Ridge Outdoors!” – Harry C.
