Random guy Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 The first round of trail cam pics are in and we are seeing lots of bear, and lots of raccons trying to break into the baits (300+ pictures worth of racoons). Seeing some nice bear hitting the baits such as the one below but I like the fun/odd pictures more, like a bear that sleeps in the bait all night. Fatty has already had enough candy...those are very long logs in the background to cover the big hole this guy digs. Nice Star chest Little Boo Boo bear noticed the "no flash" camera. Those are two seperate shots spaced thirty seconds apart. This one looks good Sleepy bear, this guy liked the bait so much he came in about 8pm had a bite to eat and just went to sleep on the bait logs until 7:30 in the am before streching then moving on.

Sorgy Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Jonny,I like the shots from a little farther back where you can see the bait along with the brush wall in back of it. I have learned alot about baiting and bait sights from this site over the years but I only baited/hunted bears 1 season. I enjoyed the anticipation / sits on stand immensly. Logistics are the only thing holding me back from giving it another shot.Your bait locations and setups look ideal for archery.Keep The Bear Pics ComingSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swill Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 What camera are you using? Nice pics.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Random guy Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 I started baiting at 12:01 AM the 15th, as soon as we can start in MN. We have trouble with a group trying to jump our baits so I just get out of bed a little earlier thats all.As for the statement about archery set-ups most of our baits are archery set-ups since that is the majority of our clients. Each bait has a tree for archery and a second for gun hunters. All it takes is a quick move and the stand is ready for either.As for cameras we are using the Moultre(s/p?) cameras with great luck.I have a bunch of pictures from this morning I will post this evening.
