Nice to finally meet you ArcherFig. Bears are up and moving slowly .... give it another week and they'll be hitting the bait regularly. Scent trails are the way to go.... get the bears stepping in something to create more scent trails for other bears. Good Luck!

[ArcherFig]

Yeah, I think I am good for another two weeks as far as scent, talked to Jess a bit the other day and ended up picking up a minty scent ball that made my Truck smell pretty good and some other goodies. So the scents out, saw some tracks on the refill today pretty Large pretty sure they are record Black Bear tracks, not brownies....just saying, lol.

I put my bait out on the 15 of April an I'm not checking it until next Friday. Bears never get on it until the 20th ish of may. Once they start hitting it I hunt hard for a week and get my bear. We will see this year
