Bear Hunting

RE: Bear Hunting
Sure, it all depends on your location. The best ways to hunt Bruin is over bait! So if you are allowed that's what I would do. Next, would be hounds.. And if you Can't use either hounds or bait you need to find really grassy areas and hunt them in the spring. I hunt high mountain logging roads in western washington. And it has been working well. The roads are covered with grass in the spring. So the bears just walk the roads and eat the grass! Hope this will point you into the right direction.

RE: Bear Hunting
Bear hunting in PA, a challenge but I love it. Can give you some advice but you got to tell me more. What county is your cabin in? Hunting solo or with others? Yeah the bears will hang in the laurel, but mostly they hang out where the food is. Best advice I can give you would be in the late spring and early summer, isa scout scout and scout. Once you find an area with good bear sign keep an eye on and hope it stays fresh with sign till the fall, while looking for a good area to put up a stand.
If others in your area do drives to move the bears around, might help things for you too. Bascially you want to put up a stand in an area of cover between the food source and the thick area where they bed down for the day. Then hope and watch. Where I hunt I have a stand outside of an overgrown clearcut, we know from years past this is where the bear head when pushed.
Any other questions just ask.
