Do your reserch. Scout the area and use a predator call. I have called in bears. It is harder than hunting them over bait but it can be done. When they do come in they usually come in close. So be prepaired for the possibility of a close encounter.

Right now in NM in the Gila area it is so dry all you have to do is hunt water holes with fresh sign around them. Outfitters say really high success averages on BB spot and stalk but mostly water holes.
