Comments About Our Bear Hunts

Bear hunting over bait "Hello! I just had to write and tell you Thank you! My Dad has always wanted to go on a hunting trip for big game. After working at General Motors for 30 long years he retired in May of this year and for his retirement gift my Mom sent him on your Spring Black Bear Bow Hunt. His son, two brothers, niece and a friend took part on this wonderful expedition. My Dad and the others have not stopped talking about it since they got home 2 weeks ago. He had the time of his life. From all the stories I have heard over, and over again I couldn't be more impressed. They loved their guide, Gerry, the food, the lodging, the atmosphere, fishing, everything! Out of 6 people they bagged 4 bears! They have already started talking about a return trip for just the fishing. So on behalf of my Mom, and the rest of my family, Thank you so very much for making this such a wonderful experience for all of them but especially my Dad who so much deserved it!
Sincerely, Beth Zillinger"

I would like to thank Gerry first off for his great company and great food. The trip wouldn't have been fun at all without him. He made it a blast. This was my first hunt, and even though I didn't get a bear, coming here was worth it. I'm young and I haven't seen much in this world, but I can honestly say that this has been the best time of my life. Thank you Gerry, I'll be back in 2003. I'm a fourteen year old girl who spent a week during the summer hunting for black bear in Canada, it's a bit out of the ordinary, I wouldn't change a thing.

The hunt was very fun and exciting. It was a good experience. The fishing was good, and the food was excellent. I really liked the people we were hunting with. If I had the chance, I would come back next year.

A great hunt can not be put into words. And I find that there is only one thing that I can say: some say that when you die you go back to a time that made you truly happy. I would want to come here.
Quebec Spring Bear Dr. Tom Losey - Toledo, OH
Excellent hunt, Gerry went out of his way to see we had an enjoyable time. Baits were very hot because of his extensive experience and hard work to maintain them. This hunt far exceeded our expectations and I will not hesitate to recommend this hunt to everyone.
We are all now considering caribou with Gerry.

Quebec Spring Bear Jerry Russel - Stockbridge, GA
Thanks Gerry for a great hunt; 14 bears! I did not take a bear but there were many chances and that it all a man can ask for. Having a chance to be alone with Emily for a week was what made the trip so special. Your operation for bear is first class. See you in 2003… if not sooner.

The sound of bones crushing will ring in my ears. The excitement + memories will last an eternity. I would not hesitate to embark on this hunt in the future. The fishing was great, and so was the food. Gerry's knowledge of the outdoors was refreshing and stories were quite entertaining. Thanks. I'll be in touch.

I found Gerry Risser on the internet while looking for someone who catered to Traditional bow hunters. I booked his "Black Claw" hunt for Spring Black Bear. From the beginning I was impressed as Gerry maintained great communication right up to the week before I left. Everything went just as his brochure says. Once I arrived in "Bearadise", his exceptional hunting & guiding skills placed me in an area where I saw bear activity the second night.Besides, the hunting camp is rustic but efficient and Gerry is an awesome cook. I will come back and advise my fellow hunters to book hunts with Gerry. Whether bear or caribou, I am sure everyone who hunts with Gerry will be satisfied.

I arrived in camp on a Monday morning, and was in my stand that night. I saw 6 bear on stand that night. One bear in particular came into the bait and presented me with a shot. The food was great. The lakes are clean and the landscape is beautiful. This is a beautiful place. The camp is relaxing. The other hunters in camp are reporting multiple sightings with some nice big bears being seen. I would recommend this hunt to anyone. Gerry is a fun guy with a few good stories.
Quebec Spring Bear Vince Canobbio - Los Gatos, CA
While there are many guys offering full-package hunts, Gerry Risser and Bowhunting Canada stands out as one of the best. Lakeshore accommodations, hungry Northern Pike, and "hot" baits make the Black Claw hunt exceptional. Gerry's extra effort to make my hunt memorable culminated in several fine opportunities for shots at quality bear. The hunt was better than advertised. I look forward to recommend this hunt to all my friends. Gerry, Thank you… I will see you in Caribou Camp!
Quebec Spring Bear R.C. Osgood III - Auburn, NH

Quebec Spring Bear Ed Mejia - Jackson, NJ
I hunted with Gerry Risser for black bear. I saw nice bears while hunting here. One bear that came into my stand was over 250 Lbs. I am very pleased to hunt with Gerry. He goes out of his way to take care of his hunters. He is a great guy and a great cook. I will be a repeat customer. I am pleased with the whole experience.
Quebec Spring Bear Bill Massey - Stockbridge, GA
I would like to thank Gerry for his very enjoyable hunt. He went above + beyond to make sure we were well fed + comfortable. I am really grateful for the special attention he gave my 14 year old son. He made sure Blake enjoyed himself and got to see plenty of black bear. When we decide on another guided hunt, it will be with Gerry.
Spring Bear Hunting Tim Willis - Millville, NJ
Well my friend what can I say… You've provided me with the hunt of a lifetime. Your cooking is excellent. I've never had such good food cooked with bare equipment. You are an artist with food. Your skill with the bears and all round hunting has provided me with great memories. With what little time we had I find you to be the most interesting person I've ever met and sometime in the future I hope we meet again. Thank you for a wonderful time.
Quebec Spring Bear Dave Heffner - Atascadero, CA
Putting this hunt into perspective brings back numerous memories of close bear sightings, campfires with friends and good food, hunting, fishing, and beautiful surroundings. Gerry, you provide an excellent hunt for a fair price. You work very hard to give someone an experience that they can always remember. These past two weeks have been fantastic. Thank you for extenting my stay. I am looking forward 2003 - I'll be back soon.
