But seriously, now that you've posted bait photos...   

You might get yourself in hot water hunting bear in that location... ever.   At least a couple years.  From what I understand the regulations are pretty vaguely stated and it's up to the LEO to decide if the bear is in the area on it's own accord (in which case it would be legal to take) or because you habituated him to the spot (in which case it's hunting over bait and illegal). 

In any case, it's a great bear.  Good luck!

Actually it sounded like the OP was asking our opinion on whether the bear was worthy of being taken.   :dunno:

I didn't get that at all. Sounds to me like a guy who hasn't hunted bear much and wants advice if that one would be a shooter if he ever comes across one while hunting
