Bear hunting with Wikman

Last year my good buddy Brandon Wikman for Bass Pro's Next Generation was up to do a little bear hunting with me. Thought I would share a little bit of the hunt with you and his first bear.

Great stuff there Dan!! That Brandon dude seems like a fun guy to hang around with. Nothing like getting a guy pumped up for bear season either, 12 days away!!

I like the set up with the logs too, well done!!

 

That boy needs a damn haircut.

 

Steve.....my first hunters will be here in 4 hours and start hunting tomorrow. There's a few baits that look to have Sasquatch tracks around them. Going to be a good season!

 

I knew you would say it.....you never let me down.

 

Awesome Danno!!!! If they goin to be there in 4 hours shouldn't you be umm not on the computer LOL

 

Did he ride into camp on a surf board?

 

Everything is set up and they don't hunt until tomorrow. Plus, its changeover day and my day with the kids while Jill cleans cabins.

Unicycle.....but that's a story to share over a few beers.

 

Well.. hopefully we'll meet up at some point this season for a pint.

Of course.. that would depend on you.. the last outing we tried to get together for some dinner didn't go over to well.

Guess I need longer hair to get your attention.

 

Awesome Dan!! Best of luck although I highly doubt you'll need any!!

 

Duke nope.....I have longer hair than you and he still won't come fishing with me LOL

 

hey dan did you bait that bear with pop tarts, I had to steal some of cricks thunder! great video man, I hope your bear hunts go good for your clients, will be talking, later.

 

Good video! Thanks for sharing.

GREAT video Dan'o one of these days id like to make it up there and try some of that action But tie my bucket down better
Hoyt in it,,,,damit that was my line

 

I should clarify that I didn't do any of the filming on this hunt. Brandon came up with his cousin Joe, who ran the camera. Joe killed a bigger one on film last fall a couple weeks later.....I gotta find out where the video is on that one.

I keep the pop-tarts for myself!

 

How much extra is the hunting if the tarts are included? And do you have blueberry?

Edit: Just now watched the vid. Cool stuff.

 

Dan....I'm glad you posted that. It fired me up even more for my WI bear hunt in about 2 weeks.

 

stupid question do ya'll eat the meat or what do ya'll with it? is the meat good?

 

Cool ! Hope you all have a Great season Dan.

 

Eat every bit of it. Personally, I believe bear meat is 1000x better than venison. It has so much flavor. Hard to describe, until you eat it.....cooked properly.
