[John Krause]

Any suggestions for trad friendly bear guides in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan?

Thanks

If you are talking Wisco or Michigan you must have been playing the application game for years….takes a nonresident like a decade to draw a good tag in either state….if not then any outfitters you get wind of now may or may not even be in business when you draw a tag.

If you want a great bear hunt with super close stand setups I’d suggest you push the “Easy Button” and get ahold of stick flingers, find out when he has an opening, go see Skinny Ryan Delargo, and shoot a bear.

Canada is a great place, less crazies up there than in the US, in my experience.

In Mn most draw areas now take 4 or more preference pts. There is still a no quota zone.

I’ve heard and read alot of good things about Thiels  guide service in WI. I have 11 preference points so far, I was going to apply for a kill tag this year but we are down to only 1 income and can’t afford to do it . So I will wait until I can. 🤞

I've always hunter DYI in MN so can't help.

I’ll second the stickflingers recommendation.  If that place ain’t traditional friendly, I don’t know what is.  10 yards out 10’ up.
