Title: My first call in.
Post by: catwithboost on May 03, 2009, 06:32:34 PM: I was heading to my cousins house out on Offet lake this morning. Heading down stedman taking my time I looked down the green strip where the pipe line is on ft lewis and out about 150yrds was a bear eating on some grass. I pull my truck over and walking in about 30yrds in the wood line and pull out the new diamond wood call closed reed that Rick sent me and start calling a little low and the bear turns and looks my way then goes back to eating I wait a few seconds and WA WA a little loader he turns my way and walks about 20yrds to me as I keep calling. So he is about 100yrds at this time. At this point I stop calling and he just keeps looking my way then turns and walks away. This was my first time calling a bear I have seen. It was great. GREAT CALL RICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by: catwithboost on May 03, 2009, 06:40:32 PM: It was GREAT! Could set and do something like that all day long. Been learning how to call for 3 yrs and never had any luck. So to do this today was great. It was fun to use one of Ricks calls to do it with. I was only 5 minutes from Ricks house when I did it. Maybe he planted the bear for me. :chuckle:

I know, it can be tough to always carry a camera.

Post by: Sideswipe on May 05, 2009, 11:13:52 PM: Hey Cw/B....haven't read too many of your posts since you blew up your Dodge many moons ago. If you're ever desperate to have someone cover your backside while call'in, let me know. I'm retar..I mean retired & could work out the time...besides you can depend on me & my 45-70 to cover you since I'm too old to run eh? I have a genuine BKR call but need some experience (sure got some Blacktails excited last season).
