All right, started my bear bait 6 days ago and got my first visitors today... Looks like two, maybe 3 different ones. I'll be out there this Wednesday with my bow...
That a beaver hanging?? That's the best bait to hang for bears....according to the outfitter we used in SK years ago. I believe him!!
Yep, got lucky enough to talk with a trapper last fall and he gave me a dozen beaver carcasses. The bears go for them right away. Rest of the bait I uses moose scraps from last October that I kept in a freezer.
It's done... Shot a big male (215lbs) Wednesday evening with my Bear Anarchy from a ground blind 18 yards away. Here's the pics... First one is a snapshot a split second before the shot. Me with the bear. ( I know I look silly with the orange vest and the mosquito net, but local regulations for the vest and hordes of mosquitos make both mandatory...) My nephew giving me a hand dragging it out of the woods.
