I just got back from a bear hunt in which I saw a number of small bears but the only large bear came in after shooting light. We were the first ones in camp this year so they should not have been spooked off by other hunters in the area. They take large bears regularly in this camp but I wasn' t that fortunate. I did shoot a young bear the last night but I should have let it go and waited till dark and gone home empty. My thought after getting home was that perhaps the larger bears would move earlier in the day if it was a dark moon. Anyone have any thoughts on this? The outfitter indicated that he felt the first week was the best time to go.
