So I finally came close to a bear, my friend spotted it in a berry patch butI couldnt get a shot before he was gone in the woods. There was quite a bit of berries in this spot and there was scat in the area with the same berries in the scat. Now is this a spotI should frequent or should I move on? Any advice?

Also forgot to say this isnt too far off of a road soI dont know if a little traffic will effect the activity or not

i think you should do OK there as long as you did not spook the bear in any way he will return to eat he feels safe there
if you can set up a tree stand off the path set back in to the woods so he can't see it i would go there3 hours before the time that you saw him there and stay till dark he will come back to feed
i would get about 15 to 20 feet up in to a tree good luck
