Season extended to June 30th
« on: April 28, 2020, 08:53:42 AM »
I hear regularly that the last two weeks of the season, June 1-15 are the best. What will June 15-30 be like? Peak bear rut at that time or is that starting in to the post rut? We could damn near be hunting the high country by the end of the season  :dunno:

I'm hoping to be tagged out by then. I'm worried they'd be rubbed out that late into spring/basically summer.

I already have a big cinnamon colored boar with a big white patch on his chest hanging in the living room so bear rugs are no longer in my budget anyway. It's all about killing a predator and bear carnitas this year.

In a way I find it amusing. Spring bear ends June 30th and fall bear starts August 1st.
Gathering is easy. Hunting is a challenge.

Right?  Cut the b.s. and open bear year round.  Not like we will ever wipe out bears with hounds and baiting being illegal
