Anyone got a bear hunt planned in NC for this season? Got a few questions I'd like to ask...

i hunt bears in the nc mountians every year

What's the preferred hunting method there? Running dogs, baiting, hunting over trails leading to food/bedding?

some like to hunt with dogs baiting is ilegal in nc i like to stalk and just sit in areas where bears are if you get far enough away from the roads you can have pertty good luck i get one every year

Thanks. Was supposed to be hunting down there the 2nd week of Nov. w/ a member of this board, but apparently it fell through. Maybe next year...

Anybody got anything planned in Eastern NC??? Anybody mind a rookie tagging along?? [email protected]

there's a good chance i will be going to western nc for a hunt hopefully. bears are supposedly pretty common in the area we'll be in.

I'll be in Maggie Valley and Cherokeeon Oct.15-25.

I dont want to invite myself on a trip or anything, but would anybody be willing to show me the ropes???I am taking the entire Muzzle Loader season off (from Oct 8-16) and if I could squeeze a bear hunt in there, I would be psyched. I am in the Camp Lejeune area, and would be willing to make a drive, it is is feasible for a day trip. Can you even take a bear during those times??

maggie valley's a nice place. i've spent a few weeks there the last few years. have you ever been to the maggie valley resteraunt???
