Mr. Pappy
I see you found my mom's tupperware bowl
From your description, you must be hunting in my yard. Those bears will be gone in a few weeks. Plenty around now though.Kyle, are you in Union County? I went to send you a PM and your info said Banks County. The tracks on the road were on Liberty Church Road, just off of Town Creek School Road. Behind my friends house who owns the Misty Mountain Cabins just down the road where I stay. They are trying to obtain permission for me to hunt that nuisance bear that keeps hitting their trash. There's a tiny little block of woods behind their house that he comes out of on a regular basis. Don't really know if I want to lock myself down on such a tiny spot, but they would appreciate it.
If that's your area, we need to have us a Union County BF get together similar to our PF get-togethers down here in the Burbs. I had lunch yesterday with TwinCedarGap and I've been talking with pig predator also about hooking up for lunch. Already had lunch with JBoggs...The Country Kitchen is pretty awesome!, but I'm sure there are plenty of good options.
Looking forward to a great season and meeting some of you guys...
Good luck to all this year.
your photo should have the gps coordinates embedded. open the photo on your PC and look at the file details either w/photo viewer or with explorer. in my file photo viewer, it actually displays a map w/the spot marked, in the properties of the photo by right clicking it, you should see a Details tab, scroll down an it will indicate the gps coordinates at lat lon. If you don't have a PC access, text me the photo and I'll tell you the location and not reveal it.Does anybody
I wish I would have dropped a GPS waypoint on the depression. r...
maybe put a trail camera on it to see how often its used, and by whomFrom my little bit of research, apparently bears do regularly use the same bed over and over until nearby food sources and travel patterns change.
From bear-tracker.com- "This is a bear bed that was located in a mixed forest composed of Douglas fir, tanoak, and redwood trees. This bed was located at the base of a large Douglas fir tree. Notice the bark and other materials in the flattened area to the right of the large tree. The large piles of scats were left by the bear as it regularly defecated in the same place each day. This is a common thing for bears to do near their beds. This bear bed was in use during early spring, when the only food available to the bears was grass and other plant material. These scats were all composed of grass and looked like horse scats. The large accumulation attests to how long this particular bear bed was in use. There was a regular trail coming up the mountain to this location from a grassy field below where this particular bear had been regularly feeding."
I plan on hunting Saturday through Tuesday opening weekend. I refuse to drag a critter more than 10’, but if any of you guys need help tracking, skinning/quartering or packing out hit me up on my cell. Happy to help.
