Default RE: Honey Burns in Maine

Moose,

I also had considered a burn but in the instance of a nocturnal bear. Is it advised that this may bring in a bear that waits for dark to hit the bait or in your opinion is it an all around no-no?
Also, Do you have a suggestion for a bear that hangs up until dark? I've heard have a hunter and a "dummy hunter hunter" and have the "dummy" leave the stand 20-25 minutes before dark and somtines this will bring the bait wise bear in. I've also read that setting another bait 200-300 yards up wind of the "noctournal bait" will sometimes draw a bear to the new bait before they move on to the established bait.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Adams
