I went with Dale @ BearPaw Outfitters in the Spring of 2011 on a Bear Hunt. We filled my Spring Bear Tag on the first day. A beautiful Cinnamon. I've got a picture of it on my avatar.I loved that video you made of the hunt as well Michelle :tup: You had a great shot on that bear!
I stuck around for 3 more days while Dale tried to fill his Spring Bear Tag. In 3 days we saw 7 Different Bear.
Dale shot at one Bear that was around 300lbs. I believe his leg slipped or his arm slipped as he was firing and it was a miss. He ended up killing a 225lb Bear a few miles up the road. Dale and Anthony (guide) snuck up on a 150lb bear, and a few miles down the road we saw a 100lb chocolate. We spotted a 375 - 400lb bear but it spotted us at the same time and didn't stick around. Than we spoted a Bear running up a hill as were were driving that was pushing 200lbs.
One day Dale wasn't able to hunt so me and Anthony went out to look for Turkey. we ended up seeing a Sow (125lbs) with a Boar (200lbs) in a marshy area.
I have no doubt, anyone booking a hunt with Dale will have plenty of opertunity to fill there Spring Bear Tag.
That area is a Sept 1 opener, isn't it?
What is the map only portion?
I'm going to be headed for the norhteast 113 to scout for Moose is there much opportunity for a bear there? Whats the difference between a mapped hunt and an unguided hunt and do you do that in the 113 unit?
Bearpaws maps are the REAL deal....
Bear in picture #2 is off limits. Dale put my name on that Bear for Spring 2013 or maybe 2014. Don't you dare let anyone shoot it! ! ! :bdid:
Great looking bears Dale. Rick
