bear in the reprod
« on: August 17, 2013, 06:19:38 PM »
  IM Sitting Over A Cut With A Near Feeding On Black Berries.  It's About 30 Yards Off The Clear Cut In Reprod.  Won't Come Out.  I Have A Call IM Thinking About Trying.  Not Sure How Long To Wait.
  When I Walked In There Were Trails All Along TheRoad Where He Has Been Eating Berries.
  How Long Should I Wait?  I'd Hate To Scare It Off By Calling.

It's better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it.                                                                             Local 66 sheetmetal workers

put the phone away and get to hunting!

I'd wait and use the call as a last resort, I'm running out of daylight sort of deal.   

All I can tell you is try your best to predict where the bear is going and where it'll come out.   If there are no roads or anything below the bear then odds are it'll come back up to the road between you and it and you'll get a shot if it's still daylight.

is he working towards you?   Is that a gated road if not the next vehicle coming by may screw it up.

That is a good call scenario - but not all bears respond to calls and if that one has ever been educated ..........

Call lightly. If it is a predator call give a couple light bawls.  Waaa, waaa.
Don't call hard right off the bat. But definitely start calling an hour before dark or if is seems to be feeding out of the area.
Be ready to shoot before and during your first set. Don't stop for more than a minute, but call harder as time progresses.

Good luck.

Hopefully the entire member population of the forum doesn't race to the reprod now that you gave away your spot.

This is cool. I hope you get a shot. 1st bear, right?
Can't wait to see how this plays out.
