Hey there, I just spoke to a friend of mine in north Idaho who is a bear hunter. He told me that he uses donuts and bacon grease for bait.
Fortunately, I have a lot of experience cooking, so I’m gonna be making a lot of donuts, and putting them in the bait barrel with some bacon grease. I’ll see what that does. By the way, there was activity up at the site. All the berry bushes were trampled, branches broken, berries picked clean. Nothing near my bait barrel though.
