Since this isn't hunting season I suggest the following.
Well since you know it is a fat one it is going to have a sweet tooth. I suggest Honey laced with Benedril antihistamines. As the bear has a good time consuming the honey he will ingest the sleeping tablets. Please see your local Vet for proper dosing. Keeping an eye on the bait pile will tell you when to call for your helpers and go find a very sleepy bear.
After that it’s up to you. You can hogtie him and call the game department to take away a nuisance bear,
Option: with the help of friends deliver him to a place of safety for him, or someplace to make the nightly news.
Oh yea – gun related – keep a big bore handgun / rifle handy in case of accidents while handling the bear
