Thanks Kevin.I hunted in the Allagash for bear a couple times, is it up that far?Im trying to find the unit map.Ill probably look for  a guide as I dont have a winch so if you have any recommendations Id really appreciate it.I got my bears with Black River Guide Service so I know theyre pretty good people but Id stil appreciate some recommendations.
                        Thanks,Izzy

Zone 3 is the very northeast section, if you look at the WMD map. I'm not real familiar with the guides up there, we usually go fishing up there, but I don't really hire a guide, ya know? I guide in WMD 8, 13, 14, and 17 mostly and I've got deals from a couple lodges there, but it wouldn't do you much good up in #3. Go to the MPGA website at  www.maineguides.org  and do a search.

That's a great area. I grew up in "The County" in St. Francis/Allagash and spent alot of time hunting and fishing in Zones 1,2 & 3.  I'm 0 fer alot on the moose draw though. Good people up that way. Try Joel Guimond at Track Down Kennels and Lodge. (207) 834-3612 EVENINGS: (207) 834-2530.
I'm not sure if he would remember me, but he used to pick up the fryer grease at the restaurant I worked at for bear bait!  Good luck!
