That's all I recall seeing posted on here as well. I think it will start picking up in a couple more weeks. It's still early.

I know of one other Bear killed in on the Capolis (sp?).  Second day of the season.  Don;t think he is a member here though.

Yes, give it a bit of time and a little good weather and they will be killing some bears.

I am being played by a bear,
Down in a creek bottom that I saw one last year, I found a lot of sign and placed my trail camera.
after a week, I went back and checked...
No pictures of a bear, but a large pile of crap on different trail, so I moved the camera...
got a couple lousy pictures right at dark of bear, so I figured good spot for an evening sit.....
I went back and log on other trail was tore up by a bear, no pictures...
went back in yesterday and large pile of fresh crap on my ingress/egress trail...
It is almost like he was down there watching me, then followed me out.
Only a matter of time before we meet. (I hope)

How was the hide on that yote?  Looks pretty thick still.  Is it rubbed out at all?

A guy shot a bear right next to the road my dad and I have been going on every night :(. I'll see if I can figure out how to post a cell phone picture.

Pelt is nice on the yote,  no rubs.  Except for a hoge hole fropm where the shoulder departed its side.... Surprised by how nice this one still was,  had another a few weeks ago that was all shedded.
