had the same thing yesterday went to check camera and bear decided to try to eat it.  got good photos put 9 inch lag bolts through the case of camera so people dont take it and bear had a hard time getting it off the tree.  switched to video mode so hopefully get a clip of him doing this.  tree stands are going up tomorrow hope to get the same bear.

ALLLLLRRIIIIGHTTTTYTHEEEEENNN !!!I MOVED MY GAME CAM TO COMPLEATLY A DIFFERANT SPOT AND,!!My cam is nearly torn off the tree,    Yep, they will do that. I've had once cam destroyed by them. Get a good box for your cam. I've got nothing but bear all over my record rack for deer and elk ,I've pretty much decided on getting a bear tag,as you have already read ,I don't know bear hunting a few of you that do gave some interest in what I have going on,if anybody is so inclined I would love some bear smart partner to participate in this with me you do the shooting I do the shooting or both or one filming one shooting this really sounds exciting,as long as I'm well educated,i also don't completely understand the regs. on this eather,there is a eastern A /B NEED THAT EXPLAINED ALLSO Are you referring to the east/west restrictions? Two bears total per year. You can shoot two in the west or one east and one west. You just can't shoot two east side bears in one season., antway I have a lot of bear where I'm at and this is no bull,which by the way,I've seen no pics of at all,except the ones the farmer down the road showed me,that's what I'm desperately after for my fith year on the bow, Would love to get one with my bow also.came as close as it gets twice but no shot,so I'm ready to maybe go after these black critters that eat everything I leave out If you are still baiting the deer and elk I'd think twice about hunting these bears. Considering baiting restrictions could cost you pretty heavily if you shoot a bear over bait. ,these guys are coming in at all hours of the day,so if so inclined give me a  P M !!! for crap sake's,there probably going to eat my camera next,then I might go at them on my own and you or me doesn't want that

camera is placed on a game trail food supply is half a mile away which is an orchard.  only thing i will be using is calling for attracting.  will be sitting in tree stand so i dont get attacked.  hope for the best  hope he uses the same trail.

just so me ,you, and fish and feathers is clear ,!!! I don't hunt anything over bait I've hunted since I was 8 or 9 I'm 56 now ,never needed bait before and never will ,like I've stated before,I'm hunting new property and just checking out the what , when wheres and hows ,my tree stand is up and its a half mile from my camera site,and I've seen it all but Mr. majestic but I know hes there,i use my calling skills,which I have spent a lot of studying time with Mr Wayne Charlton and I've done just fine regardless of what our voters try to do to our hunting rights,O BOY DONT GET ME STARTED!!! DAMDABLE WOLVES !!! :chuckle:If I was heartless ,stupid,and a uncaring sole like the crooks that prey on hunters equipment,in the woods I wouldn't be posting it on the best forum for us hunting fanatics for all those,commissioned,officers to profit off of.and I mean that BABE,O K ,that being said I'm off to the cam again,and yes put down more bait ,that record rack is the cats pajamas,dont waste your time with anything else ,its not cheap but give it a try.

still working on learning to post pics , but I went ahead and added a bear tag for the first time ever,i wonder if I can get this forum connected to my tree stand in case I'm suddenly face with tracking a shot bear,so Waite a half our before pursuit,and don't plan on a death groan,I'm just going to hope on the bear responding to my elk calls ???hope that's right if not set me straight pleeeeeease !! I've got a feeling this is going to happen because this area has not been disturbed for years ,and I really believe this ,I need to learn to post videos , and pics ill be having a go pro on the bow and a buddy walking the miles of unused roads with a camera just hope I can get something interesting on film,best of luck out there

Just sent you a PM.  I'm in Spokane and I can help you figure out that electronic box we all call a computer, and help you out posting your photos, if you'd like.

the first step to ending computer illiteracy, is stop with the caps, it very much makes half the folks not even want to read what someone types

first off I would like to thank you guys for the help on the computer I'm working on that still,secondly this camera thing I've done several times with pheasant deer and elk but never got film on elk yet I was going to try that this year for the first time,with deer it all has to do with positioning with the wind and I'm sure with Mr. nostrils it will be even more difficult, but these roads are completely over grown and not used at all I can move through there not making a sound,because its actually soak en wet were I'm at (so I'm sure you guessed I'm not in 364 ) :chuckle:were gunna give it a try but don't think I'm giving up the whole season on a gulldern,filming project heck guys a man gotta eat !!oh !! and thirdly,( I don't see any caps !!how am I doing ?Well after all that said,today I went up to clear shooting lanes on my tree stand and check the camera ,didn't want to go in this late but it was grown over so no choice.On the way out it was pretty exciting in the middle of the trail out I saw what I thought was a dog but when I got closer ( IT WAS A BROWN BEAR !  )as I went to get the go pro out of my shirt pocket I heard a very close sound ,15 yards to my left was a black bear ,for some strange reason he goes up a tree ten yards from me and just stairs at me.Of course in the commotion I lost the chance to get the brown bear on film,I'm just sick about that,but I did get the black bear going further up the tree,pretty cool stuff,and now back to the I don't know bear hunting thing.Are brown bears leagal ? and do you have to use your already established choice of weapon still.(darn learning curve ! )Didn't see this stuff in the states hunting bible,yes I looked !!

[billythekidrock]

Brown phase black bears are legal. You do not have to choose a weapon for bear so you can use what you have as long as it is legal for big game.

[cryder]

Thanx so much for answering for my ignorance !So now I'm imagining me up in my tree stand with a bow and a rifle ?? geeeeze might as well bring the grenades ??Is that leagal more than one weapon ??

[returnofsid]

Brown bear are not legal, but brown phase black bear are. Just be sure not to shoot a grizzly! Lol

[cryder]

I was ready to put my go pro on my bow but I geuss I better not ILL just leave it on my hat or is filming from ahead cam no good too ?
