No the barrel has never ran out. We just always bring something in to add to the bait every time we are there. After about a 3 week lull. I finally have another bear in. The problem is it was a Griz, the good thing is he was only in there once and has not came back for 4 days. So with the Boars looking for Sows. Should I be using some type of scent for a Sow in heat? Do you think the Grizzly could run off all the black bears? I have not seen one for 3 weeks on our camera. I have alot of crows in my bait, will that make a difference? Are black bears more skittish than Griz?
Here are some pictures of the New Griz we have, he is pretty big. I also included a pic of the black bear to show what the size difference is.
