Is anyone looking to move the idea forward? It would make more sense to have a spring season when the hides are prime instead of hunting them on ninety degree days in the fall. That's if I had to choose just one season.

I get some nice ones on camera, 330. Not much pressure where I'm at.

I hope you're right. And by the way, the last guy who referred to me as "Pisco" is still recovering. grin

I started off my bear hunting adventures forty-five years ago. Very, very few people were interested in bear hunting back then and we were overrun with them. I poured a quart of honey over a log on the edge of a field and hunkered down with my Colt Python. Didn't see nuthin'. Didn't dampen my spirits, though. I've always enjoyed having bear around.
