Dave: Hunted that region a few years ago, but late in season. Got a bear, but hunting was not as good as it had been earlier. Your probably getting the first crack at them leaving this early. Could be good, could be bad, according to the weather. If this is your first Bear hunt, you may want to take just any bear. Holding out for a trophy is not for everyone, as all of us hunt for different reasons. The first time you see one of these in the wild, up close and personal, will forever change you. I love Bear hunting, can't wait till I get another chance, be prepaired, shoot straight, take lots of pics, you will have a great time. Good luck. RW

Nice bear RW. Thanks to everyone for the advice. I will try to remember it all, but when I see my first bear up close.............. who knows? Just hope I don't get all excited and shoot 10 feet over his back. Fortunately, I have killed enough deer that I think I can keep my cool... We'll see..
Again, thanks all of you.. I will bring back lots of pics. (I hope)

It is funny how 2 people meet. I am a guide at Bear Track Outfitters here in Manitoba which Dave booked his hunt with, and a long time trad gang member. I picked Dave up at the airport on Sunday and had no clue what kind of gear he was hunting with... Hmmmmm this kind of sounds familiar hey Roy..lol. I guided these 2 men above me here on this post, and they are both great guy's. I even have a bow named after Roy that Tim Mullins from Acadian Woods made me. But thats another story. It was great having you in camp Dave, we will keep in touch. I have that package for you that i said i was going to send you. I will send it when I get back from camp in June. Michele Eichler is in camp this week. I hope the weather Gods treat us better than last week.

Good luck and straight shooting Dave!! R.W. great bear! I told my wife if I won the Lottery I'd bear hunt from one end of Canada to the other in one spring. Bear hunting is my all time favorite hunt in the world! Just beautiful majestic creatures! Glenn
