Any body having any hits on their bear bait sites?

Nothing on Tuesday when I checked them last. Heading out to check them bright and early tomorrow. Hoping to see some signs of activity.(like my bait station completely blown apart) I'll post later tomorrow and let you know.
How about you any activity?

I talked to a local guide here that has 14 baits out and more than half have been getting hit daily, and all but one has been hit. I cant be too specific on where we're his bait are but I'm in Floodwood and most of his baits are on public land near by.

I was out to build tree stands and accidently came upon one of the heavily hit baits.

I have not had a chance to get back up north to check. Hopefully this weekend but I do not think that will happen.

I heard the natural food crop is good again and it is going to be tough hunting.

My brother and I are running two baits each and all but one got hit. They hadn't been totally cleaned out but much better than last year at this time. May be heading up on Wednesday again.

There has been a total of 5 bears hitting our bait pile. We have gone through 5 rolls of pictures kind of cool to see whats hitting it. You also get to see the weight they put on in such a short time. I have posted a few pics.

Got a chance to check sites Tuesday.
All three of my sites were hit, but only one was torn apart. The others were just spread apart.

Went up yesterday and we still have one that hasn't been touched. We have two others that are being hit but not real hard and we have one that is really getting blasted. It was completely blown apart and cleaned out. I think I need to set up a trail timer. Anybody have any recommendations for a trail timer?

Went up the 27th again to check. All were hit good, totally cleaned up. Things are looking good. Monday will be interesting... Hopefully!!! Good Luck

I had another guy shoot the one bear I had coming in. Not a hit since, except the coons. Does antbody know of a guide in the Deerwood/Aitken area that has openings for hunts?

Here in the Kabetogama area 25, permit area 107 and 115, the bear are hitting about 85% of the experienced hunters bait sets. Two of the foremost guides in this area are doing extremely well, one guide has 24 bear for 27 hunters, and the other guide has 23 bear for 29 hunters and may have closed that gap by now. The Gateway Store at Kabetogama has registered 67 bear by this morning of which 49 of them are boars.

I got my bear the third day of season (did not hunt the first day of season)
I do not know if this will work for you but when I went out I took a bottle of anise and threw it around the site, then I bought a empty plastic ketchup bottle and filled it with Rasberry jello (dry powder) and when I was in the stand every 1/2 hour I squeezed the powder around the branches and in the air. Then 1 hour before sunset I squeezed it every fifteen minutes.
Boy could you smell it in the air.
My bear came in at sunset.
Give it a try and let me know what happens

I've got two stations out near Grand Rapids and both are getting tore apart. I check them every other day and they're cleaned out each time. Both are hitting after dark though. May have to try a honey burn and sit it out one of these evenings to see if I can draw one in before darkness falls.

Anyone out there have much luck with that?
