Title: my first bear hunt, more reports.
Post by: bankwalker on August 18, 2008, 09:54:46 PM: well took a little hike tonight looking for a bear/scouting for deer.

i didnt see any fresh bear sign tonight. just a couple old piles in the middle of the road. couple of torn up stumps but they also looked old.

ended up seeing a couple rabbits, a grouse, and 2 deer. one nice 3x2

it was a fun night. my gf really liked it and hopefully we are gonna get her set up for deer this year with that deffered hunters lisence to see how she likes the actual hunt.

hit a second spot after that, same area as the other night. found alot of nice clear cuts that should hold a few bears when the little berry patches in the clear cuts get ripe.
