I'd be surprised if we see any bears before MAY. If not the middle of MAY.

Bear river. Hung cams a few weeks ago and seen fresh track. Would be his first bear.

Thanks. He’s got a few deer and close on his elk but he was ten then and he’s 13 now. Been a few years since he’s been out. Got him a bear cruzer and working on 40+ lbs draw for elk season. He can split the lines on a target at 100 yards w the rifle so we should do good if we find em. I put one of the cams facing this trail in photo. Might have been sow and cub cause smaller track was on same trail. Smaller track looked older though. I had the tag 3 years ago and seen no bear but I have a feeling it’ll be different for the boy.

Feeling some success pictures coming after this next weekend! Somebody’s gotta connect :tup:

Tuff hunting out there boys and girls! 22 miles of boots on the ground last weekend with not a lot of bear sign. Bear River Unit, most yocals I talked to had seen bear in their yards. Seems like most bears are holding on private property. Hopefully I'll get another shot to get out before the season ends. Good luck out their folks!

Bears are moving. I was fortunate enough to have some good people to share the experience and lucky we ran into a gracious land owner who offered up his spot on a chance meeting. He hadn’t been I there yet this year but said to give it a shot.
Seen 5 bears in the last week. Put the smack down on one last night right before dark.we were alternating calling sequences. He came in hot and heavy we could hear him running like a tank though the woods. Put one shot through his chest at 85 yards and it was all over as he crashed to his death 50 yards from spot he was hit.
I’ll follow up with more after some sleep.
-
Trying to load a few pics I’ll get my kids to help me figure it out :chuckle:
-
Congrats!!
-
Nice 270! What was ur calling sequence?!
-
Bawling fawn and bleat from two different guys with different calls. Hit it hard and heavy so they wouldn’t loose interest. My brother got it on video so we’ll try to get it emailed over to me so we can get it posted.
-
Well the lady and I got it done, not huge but solid bear at 5’ 10” and 170lbs. Bit of a monkey face other wise great coat.
-
Nice to see some springers hitting the dirt! Well done :tup:

This thread should be stickied. I have a hunch there will be a good number of east side bears hitting the dirt real soon. I cant be the only one chomping at the bit to finally be able to get after them on august 1st.
-
Can’t wait.my wife is ready for it to start so I quit talking about it and mulling over strategies. My brother is coming over from the wetside Wednesday night when he gets off work. Hopefully we can make something happen in the three days he is here. I have trail cam pics of a good black one, a smaller brown one(tender bear for the freezer) and saw another decent black one a week ago checking cams.

I finally got my first bear ever last Saturday morning, but every time I try to post with pictures it doesn't work. I'll hit post and it just goes to a blank white screen...help?

Awesome. Congratulations. Now go get another one

Got this guy yesterday (the 15th). Bears were thick on the berries.
-
Unless you’re not trying to post a picture of a huge bear it looks like it worked to me. Congratulations
-
Weird, I couldnt see it when I hit preview. Thanks.
-
No problem. It’s always a headache for me too especially when using my phone. Which is most of the time.
Bears have definitely been hitting the berries. Small boar I got on the 5th had a medley of berries the big guy I got the 14th was just hitting one kind

Hopefully not too uncensored

Mine still had a mouth full of berries and leaves when I skinned and quartered him.
