What did everybody apply for Spring Bear?

[Ghost Hunter]

As excited as Iam I thought I would start a thread for spring bear. I have 5 points this year and applied for Dayton, Blue Creek, and Tucannon in that order. I use spring bear as a good reason to get in the woods and also learn country for my quality elk hunt which maybe someday I might draw(16 points). I plan to hunt from May 6-11 and May 20-26 for spring bear. My work schedule is 8 10's then 6 days off and that's why I have those dates off work. The open seat thread in the waterfowl thread enticed me to start this. I'm planning on going solo May 20-26 if anyone is interested with or without a tag. ( bring frame pack haha)

Same points,  choices, different order.   Maybe we could partner up   Good luck.

North Skagit!

Drew Kapowsin last year with no points didn't go.

I went all eastside areas this year. I'm starting over with points this year so I'm not expecting much given my draw history.

Resolved: If I draw a Spring Bear tag, I am going to call PermaGrinKid for hunting tips!

Good luck, James!  With 5 points already your chances are pretty good.  Dayton seems to be the most productive, but Blue Creek has good harvest results, too (although most of it is private, I am told--do you have a strategy for that?).

Pencil me in for that extra seat!  (I even have a pack board...)   

Let's see what happens come draw time, I will keep you posted!

I did Monroe only this year.  Really close to home so I can hunt most evenings after work.

Got my tag yesterday. However, only going for points. Ghosted it this year. Good luck everyone....I'll tag along and help any Monroe tag holders.

When you get drawn it will look something like this:

Gladly....can you not shoot one 23 and a 1/2 minutes before dark and have to track it through the nasty of nasty stuff with only a .22 for backup? Please?

[D-Rock425]

Stang shoots them right before dark and we have to blood trail for hours.  Then sometimes they get up and run away again.  Its a big pain in the butt.  Seems like shooting one in the early morning hours would be best.

Agree 100%. Let me know.....I plan on spending some scouting time up and around where I got mine last year. We will need another "who drew Monroe" thread. There was some good info shared last year.

Need to start getting some cams ready.
