Default Is my baited bear "stuffed"?

In theory I think it sounds logical but what do you think.

I am wondering if I’m gouging my bear to the point of being complacent and lazy about hitting my bait. Mid-day I take out three 5 gal. Pails every other day. It seems my bait gets hit they day I bait but lately it has been getting hit between 10PM and Midnight. I’m wondering if I should maybe cut back to maybe only (1) 5 gal. Pail everyday or maybe every other day.

I guess what I’m thinking is now that bear gets so full that his motivation to get in to feed isn’t as strong – basically he is not that hungry. By cutting his food down might create a bit of motivation to hit it early so that he is sure to get some.

Kind of give him a little so he has a strong appetite for more. I know that is what my wife did with me when we were dating. Gave me a little so would work hard for more – and it worked.

What do you think?
