Default My 2012 DIY Spring Bear hunt

So I have done this this thread on other threads for a couple of years. I think it is high time to share with all of you guys and gals.

So the season begins shortly and the prep work has officially begun. Today the daytime highs reached +10. It was a beautiful day. My shed is almost empty of donuts and all that was left was a few of my square 3 gal pails. It is stink bait day!

I gathered 11 pails with lids. Went to the freezer and collected the ingredients. A bit of this and a bit of that. A little bit of freezer burned deer meat, some fish, chicken, pork and whatever else I had on hand. Actually some of it I could not even identify. A freezer burned pail of chocolate ice cream to top it off. Each pail got a bit of everything that I carefully cut up with an axe, a gal of water and some bread. After which I set it out in a nice spot where it will get sun throughout the day.

Stink baits...... check.



So far in the bait department I have donuts, 11 beavers, several boxes of bread, my stink pails and some other sweets. I am still gathering more bait.

My group and I are setting up 5 baits. Each bait site will have 2 barrels. I call our baiting method Shake and Roll, because we have one shaker barrel and one roll barrel at each site. Once I am allowed to bait I will take pics of our set ups.

I will continue this thread throughout the season. It will be a step by step guide to my baiting and hunting season.

Enjoy
