I posted earlier this year that I drew a zone f bear tag for this year.... It has a 8% success rate....
Well, so far, I have been baiting since early July to get them coming in.... and so far... Not bear one yet... Lots of fat raccoons and plenty of chipmunks... but not one bear yet.
It's funny, because I have three different bait sites, all a few miles apart from each other and all in good spots near water and the thickest cover away from any houses...
I have seen bear sign and bear poop in the close vicinity. So, there are bear around. But, still not one bear picture yet. I may eat this tag. I am not giving up untill the end of September at the soonest.
