B-man715 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Nice bear Bman, did you get a weight on him? Hey Snoozebutton, How's things up north going? Anybody get any bigs ones over the bait yet? Saw a few while out running my bealges not far from you. I have 5 acres down at the end of Ross Road. This critter only weighed 240#. Not too bad for a MN bear But it looks huge next to my 160# frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boar Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Yea snooze, ur grandson stick one one yet? Im sure weda haerd. Got reports or pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozebutton Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 240 is nothing to sneeze at. We passed up the first bear that came in and my friends saw the pic of him and guessed him at close to 300. Since then nothing but smaller ones. Kind of kicking myself for telling my grandson to hold off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoozebutton Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 passing on a 300 pounder for your grandson, man you guys set the bar high over there in wisconsin!Normally I wouldn't but that big guy had been coming in an hour before dark for a month. Then 2 days before the opener he turned nocturnal. Had to hold out at least the first day for him.B Man, we're half way between Springbrook and Earl on Chappell Rd.

Or if you know of anyone with a License to shoot in Area D! I got many bear on my private acreage..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozebutton Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Appreciate the offer Jarrid and we may take you up if we haven't gotten one by that last weekend in September. Getting my grandson out isn't as easy as I thought it would be, seems like almost every night he's got something going on at school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrid Houston Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Understand! But if you want a sure bear, just let me know.. You know how to get a hold of me...gd luck to you guys!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reelguy Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Got a couple bear pix on my deer cameras. Was finally able to get up to bait yesterday and going to hunt next week. Are any of these possibilities to shoot? I believe the first is a cub so obviously not a shooter. This is my first year bear hunting. Hopefully they are survived the first week.

snoozebutton Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Well, the 2 biggest guys never showed up again so my grandson decided to take the next biggest one that turned out to be 230#. Not bad for a first bear and he was real happy about it. I turned the camera on video before we got into the stand and here he is a moment or two before the shot. My son in law took some after pics but I don't have those yet since it was pretty late before we got out of the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honkerhunter64 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Got my first bear last Thursday. After almost three weeks of watching sows with cubs, and little boo boos every night, finally had this guy show up. Thanks to everyone on the forum for sharing tips. It was very helpful to a first time bear hunter. Only eight short years til I can do it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honkerhunter64 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 200 and change. Wasn't the big boy I had hitting the bait earlier, but the ol trigger finger was getting mighty itchy. My daughter should draw a tag next year so hopefully she'll get a crack at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
