WEEK ONE
We had 10 hunters, most from this forum:
TW5920, BigMike, Foxtrapper, 86er, PaPaBear, RAC, Keepitreal, DanE. et al... I did not hunt bear at all.
Here are the results:
3 bears killed
2 misses (one bow, one rifle)
4 additional seperate bear seen over bait - no shots fired.
That's actually 5 days hunting as some guys opted to fish a day and not sit in the stand.
We did kill one F-250 truck on the way there leaving 5 seats for 7 passengers. We almost killed RAC. He fell out of the treestand and broke some ribs and a finger. Feel better Roger!
We caught a ton of smallmouth and walleye. One hunter chose to varmint hunt and called in a coyote but couldn't get a shot. I saw a big bull moose that walked right up to me while I was in a ground blind scouting.
Everyone's bait was hit in the morning when we checked it. The full moon was against us!
If you absolutely must kill a bear I suggest the 6 day trip where we have been 100%. Here is one of the bears taken on the 3rd day:
WEEK TWO:
2 bear on one bait Monday
1 bear on a different bait Monday
2 bears taken TUESDAY. Both forum members but used a bow on this hunt. More to come!
