What do you mean when you say best way to hunt them? Do you mean the most succesful way or the most fun way or what? Dogs are the most successful way. Bait lets you be choosy and take your time on the shot. Not sure about spot and stalk there isnt land that is open enought to really do it that way here in Maine although Id like to give it a shot sometime. Sounds like fun.

I usually on beer hunt on the weekends and I usually beer hunt in America although I have beer hunted several times in Mexico as well. I defintely prefer to spot and stalk beer since baiting and hounds have never seemed to work, besides they are very easy to sneak up on.
Be careful though to be sure to only harvest a beer in very cool environments since beer consumed after being harvested in warm environments does not tast good at all!
It's only crime (if that's what you were asking) if you are not old enough to legally beer hunt.

I'll chime in on the beer hunting.

Like a good share of the posters said, terrain Is the biggest factor on what style of hunting will get the job done. I've done both baiting and stalking and would prefer stalking any day of the week but stalking won't work In the thick woods of Minnesota where I bear hunt. My spot and stalking hunting only happens out west. I sure miss It being I don't get out there much anymore.

My vote is definately for hunting with hounds. I don't have any bear dogs but tag along with guys that do. It is alot of fun and isn't really as simple as dumping your dogs, walking right off of the road and shooting a treed bear. Sometimes it ends up being an all night chase with lots of stiches for dogs. JMO
