This is the truth. I grew up in the WNC mountains. I saw a few bears here and there as a kid. But when I worked on the coastal plain of NC, 25+ years ago, I saw some monsters near the big corn fields in Carteret County, NC. Way more bears down east than in the high country.

You wouldn't be talking about Open Grounds Farms would you? I live in Carteret co and deer and bear hunt OGF. Several big bear there but most of our jumbo (500# plus) come from Hoffman Forest in Jones/Onslow or the pacossin swamps in Hyde or Dare. I'll post some of last year's bear kills if I can figure out how
