Bear and Duck Hunting

[ben.lown]

Does anyone know the best place closest to Minneapolis, where i can take my 20 to go shoot bears and ducks? If anyone know that would be a huge help!

It can be pretty difficult to do.........

But sometimes you can get a bear to decoy. I've found that wood duck dekes work best (cause the bears are used to seeing them)

Bears and Ducks ? What ? Ducks find water and Bears try maybe Como Zoo ?

[Rich Lindgren]

i think that another good place to find bears is somewhere near the woods. you might want to try some honey as bait.

I really need to go bear and duck hunting. Where are some good spots?

I have looked everywhere and can not find any bear decoys. Found a couple ducks. where could i find bear. Preferably black bear.

What gun should I use?

And what time?

Some info would help. Thanks a million.

This is a very odd thread....

I used to have a Duck and Bear Outfitting Business but after 5 years of being booked solid I sold it to Cabelas for big bucks. I am now retired and married a Playboy Bunny.

I wonder if this is related to this thread?

If the OP is serious, the further you get from Minneapolis the bettter, 3 hours minimun. Don't drive south or west or east. Duck decoys are good and - used them on water, bear decoys are not, so you might want to pack some donuts with you for bait. Read the regs and bring a compass. Also make sure to load your 20 gage with a slug for bear and shot for ducks, otherwise you might end up with an angry bear and no ducks.

Looks to me like too many kids are loose on Christmas vacation and the only thing they can find to play with is the computer.

Why don't they get outside and shovel some snow. Ha!
