Nothing for us yet.  Spent a while with the e-caller and mouth call, but no luck.  Saw some sign, got a few pics of scat and the likes, but no bear yet.  Found some ripe huckleberries I will post a watch on tomorrow.  Did see lot of deer and couple of nice bucks, but my camera would not zoom in enough.

Good luck to all of you, and say a few words for me tomorrow!

Got up at 3am, left Deer Park, went up above Waitts lake to the lookout then cut across to Addy Cidona Rd. We saw turkeys, deer, a coyote and most important two bears!!! The first one was at 5:25am, we had just left the look out and where headed down the back side when I spotted him about 500yds away coming up the ridge, the wind was blowing hard and it was sprinkling. I thought I could drive down the ridge and cut him off I was wrong. Mistake number 1. He was about a 250lb black bear. Down the road we went, lots of logging activity, three grouse, a few moose tracks and then a very promissing clearcut with tons of wild berries of several sorts in, down pretty low by this point about 7:30ish. We stopped the truck and started glassing, after about 15 minutes I thought I could see some berry brush moving on the other side of the cut, about 600yds away. Sure enough the second bear of the day...I could see it then it was gone, a very thick low brushed clearcut. We finally got a good look at the bear, it had a white chest and was only about 65-80lbs and around 4 foot. We watched him for about 15 minutes and let it go. So when it comes down to it, a really nice sunrise, some good wildlife, and two bears that really where never close enough to shoot. :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
