Opposite for AK, no fish what so ever..   When did they stopp baiting here?   Get them barrels out now so they get used to them and their smell..  Heck the bait isn't going to go bad, in fact it will probably get better as it gets ripe..... get it out so they also get used to it.  I'd bait a month ahead of when I decided to hunt, they never cared if we were there or not as long as the yummies continue they'll be back over and over again.  Word to wise get that cameras high up and angled down, buddy lost two expensive cameras to bears taking and chewing on them, one had a pretty nice metal box and lock on it but they managed to bust it up....  Anything that might have residue from when you carried the bait up will have that smell also and they will investigate it for sure, if it smells they'll give it a taste or chew for sure.   Another thing, if you can find it is Old civil defense candy (1950-60's).  Military bases have been throwing it away for years, comes in 41 pound metal boxes all sealed, all hard tack diet supplement candy....  Never said the bears in the area I hunted had the best dental and probably no lack of cavities...   Good luck and keep us posted, baiting is so much fun...

well, no confirmed bears yet, havent put barrels out just burying the bait (bread donuts pie cookies and syrup) under logs. two of my sites are empty every time in there, just hung cameras wed. we'll see. talked to some guys that normally bait the same general area and they havent been hit good either... too much snow. at least i am eating good on bait days though, pies and donuts are good with syrup, but cant eat a whole one of anything or i get too full heading back in a few days to check cameras... something tells me i will get a few pics of some dufuses eating donuts and pouring syrp around though!!!!!

When I was a teen still livin' at home, I would go out and flyfish for Bluegills at the lake in the spring when they were on their beds. I would freeze them by the bucket full. One hot July day when my parents were gone on vacation, I left three 5 gallon buckets of frozen bluegills out on the back porch to "ripen". Well, It got busy at work and I kinda forgot about them for a "few" days. I was workin' nights at the time. The afternoon my parents came home there was hell to pay and my Dad demanded that I get rid of them right away. Well, you guessed it one of the buckets tipped over in the back of my toyota corolla and that car never smelled the same again...ever. 

Fish works though, the smellier the better.
