Our Bear Season

Elkcrazy8 · 06-27-2009, 01:55 PM

Hello my friends, its been a while since I have posted on here, things have been pretty busy lately.

Well, our bear season is finally over. It was trying at times. I almost gave up after the houndsmen started striking off my bait site. But things managed to turn around and I was able to fill my tag on the last day. Priority # one was to help my buddy from WI get a bear and that he did. Here is a pic of Jerods.

We have over 700 pictures of bears. This bear was a real regular, until we sat that is. I can only imagine what it will look like in another year...

Here is another that would cruise through every few days. I would say that next year we are in for another good year.

This was my bait site after I found out the houndsmen were using my bait for striking. Not much was being eaten....And the barrell was still full too....

Here is my site 1 week after the above picture was taken, they had one heck of a party after the site was allowed to calm down.
