We had to wait for downed tree to be cut before we made it to the bait. We were sitting on the ground and I dozed off. I got elbowed hey you're snoring. Lol I whispered you have the gun. Closed my eyes, got elbowed again, opened my eyes wow that's a nice bear standing on the bait. It walked off, circled and she drilled it when it returned. 265 field dressed,. Boy did the guys get a ribbing for not hunting that night !

bucksnbears trapper B Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 7,386 western mn	I've had pics of 4 ( not cubs) on a bait before but never 5 until this year. Got a series of pics of 5 ( no cubs) when we had a storm come thru 2 weeks ago. Winds were 60+ when the pic was taken. Branches n debris flying in front of the cam. I'd rather hunt in a strong wind then a calm one. swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

I'm meat hunting, most gets pressure canned. Gonna try render my own bear grease this year. In the past I had lady who would render for half. She passed away. Any suggestions on rendering ? Was planning to use roaster set on low settings. Did I mention I really like bear hunting.
