Bear Hunting in New Brunswick, Canada

At Upper Oxbow, we strive to make your bear hunting adventure a great success. What you can expect:

      Spring season starts the middle of April and runs to the end of June. We normally start hunting the second week of May. Since we are located in northern New Brunswick, we find that this gives the animals ample time to come out of hibernation and start hitting the baits regularly.

What to Bring Hunting

      Camo clothes, bug net, personal items of clothing, rifle, ammunition or bow & safety harness if you have one.

Our Guarantee

      We guarantee active baits. Our guides put you over game. Only you can determine if you will put the trophy in the bag.

Package includes:

  • 6 nights and 5 days
  • Guide
  • Accommodations
  • All you can eat meals
  • License
  • Preparation of your trophy

Price for 2008

$1,675.00 Canadian/person
( Hunting for the 6th day Saturday can be arranged for $250.00 Canadian)

Combination hunt

– fish packages available - $2,450.00

Try your hand at angling for wild Atlantic salmon, sea run trout, shad or stripped bass (incidental catch) in the mornings and hunt your trophy in the afternoons. When you bag the big one we still have plenty of fishing left. Truly a week you will not forget.

Important Facts:

  • A non-resident Black Bear hunter may acquire a licence in either of the following two methods:
    • Through a designated, licenced outfitter or guide who has received an allocation of black bear licences, or
