Title: Some recent bear showings
Post by: deadeye on August 08/23/21, 04:49:55 PM

After setting up the popup blind on the slash pile last week I put up a camera but did not bait the site.
This guy just wandered by the spot I plan to place bait.

Did you start baiting yet?  Neighbors also bear hunting?

dakids,
I put out some bait a few days ago. I need to go add some and check the cameras.

glenn57,
I haven't really checked the photos close enough to determine how many different bears appear however I would be fairly confident there's at least a half dozen making the rounds.

I wonder if that bear wasn't poking around your slash pile because your recent scent was on it.  :scratch:

I took a run up there today to swap out camera cards and check the bait.  I forgot my camera bag so I didn't have spare SD cards.  The bait by the slash pile was gone and evidence of bear activity was present.  I rebaited and will have to check it on Friday.

Steve-o, you are so right about them checking out my scent. :rotflmao:
