You wouldn't believe the looks I get when I tell people I grew up in a small town named Farmer City. It's definitely a different world out here. And I'm rooting for you on your bear. I'm gna try for one when fall season starts. It's a far cry from ducks and pheasents, so I'm pretty well diving off the deep end lol.

I have 2 different fawn in distress calls. Next time we go out I'll bring them along and see if we can bring one in. It calls in deer and yotes just fine, haven't had a bear respond yet. I'm looking forward to the first one and many more after that!

I'll post up a pic of where I was talking about in a few....gotta get it off the phone. You may remember this stretch.....you, Frank, and I walked it. It forks and the left goes to the bowl, the right curves down and around a little bit. Here is the pic. It was just dead silence.

Hey, I know that place!

I'm headed out for ling this afternoon, but Friday-Sunday I'm free if you want an extra set of eyes along.  I can show you the spot where I got all my bear pics on the cam last year if you are interested, it's not far from there.  Lemme know.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

I was out for a stroll the other day, doing some coyote hunting and some early season bear scouting and I ran into the craziest thing...

H20Hunter ACTUALLY hunting.  Odd, I know.  I was looking for his kokanee rod, his ling cod gear, his pink FJ... surprisingly I found none of that.  I think it was his first legit bear hunt of the spring season.

He's trying (kind of, but not really).  Here is photo evidence to liven the thread.

Why does he have pics of your poo? Just what are you guys doing on these "hunts"???
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

This thread is definitely lacking in the bear poo pics department.
