Wisconsin Bear Hunting

i got a tag this year for bear hunting and i amm looking for some advice. i am wondering wear i should bait on my land. the last 2 years i have had a friend and a family member hunt the same stand and both have seen bear and got them on the trail camera at the same stand. my dad thinks that i should hunt on the other side of the land which is across a fairly messy swamp. do bears really travel that far and through that much just to get food. any advice is greatly appreciated. thanks. notice the screen name. that is literally the spot that the bear have been seen and that is not a joke. the spot is called bearhill and that is the name of the road we r closest to.

No bears out there or just not reporting ?

Thanks Samfox !!

Steelhead,  congratulations nice bear

Got this boar Wed - opening day in Mi . 196 lbs went about 20 yards after shot . Will get shoulder mount    

Good luck boys and girls.  Let’s see some pictures 

Good luck to everyone tomorrow!

Still have availability to hunt over bait in zone c, well established baits, hunt the entire season or till you harvest a bear.

Good luck be safe.

Let’s go hunting!

xlesox - North Country Taxidermy in Hazlehurst will skin a bear and let you keep it in their freezer overnight.  I forget what they charge though so would have to call them.  I had my last bear mounted by them and they had mentioned they offer that.  Granted this was a few years ago already.

They won't cut it up obviously, you'd have to pick it up the next day and either butcher it yourself or take it somewhere else for that.

Steve White - A bucks horn?

There’s a sow with one older cub that has this boar following them around. Like an arguing husband and wife

From looking at the pictures it shows they’re hitting it the next day between 1100 am and 100
Just set the bait yesterday and set up a cellular camera. One’s coming in little before 1100 am

Looks like a sow growling back at a boar
Not liking having sows with cubs when I’ll be on the ground 

The big one looks like a shooter

We’re getting hundreds of pictures. Surprised about all the daytime pictures. Looks like they’re arguing over the bait in some pictures 

Skin and fat off immediately! Quarter cooler and take it tothe.processer the next day...done! Hide and fat off makes a huge difference.
