CritterGitter Report post Posted August 27, 2014 I gotta say I'm quite disappointed that my chosen bear unit is closed already. Surely I'm not the only one experiencing this frustration. Thanks for letting me vent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ready2hunt Report post Posted August 27, 2014 I agree, I have had to change up my chosen game plan. It looks like a plentiful year for bears though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CritterGitter Report post Posted August 27, 2014 I think I'll just set up camp and cook bacon continuously while I relax in a chair and wait for one to wander in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kidso Report post Posted August 28, 2014 I tried that once...and almost shot a forest service employee who snuck into my camp unannounced after dark...to investigate a propane flame during a "no open fire while camping restriction". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elitegt500 Report post Posted August 28, 2014 9 sows shot on the first hunt in 23. You would have to be crazy to pass on a decent bear on the second hunt looking for a boar. Pretty much if it's a pear year it will close by the first week of the second hunt for the year these days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kidso Report post Posted August 29, 2014 EliteGT500, Did you call G&F and get that 9 sow number from them? That is a lot of sows, more than I expected. Interesting data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
