Thats just sad.  Makes me wonder if these guys had ever been to a rifle range.

I talked to Timm this morning.  One of the misses was with a blackpowder rifle.  Powder got wet and the gun just went pfff.  That guy did get another shot at the same bear but shot low.

He also said the bear are coming in during the day.  Several baits are being hit from 10:30am to 1:00pm.

One guy hasn't seen a bear, but has video of moose and a Lynx.

Can't wait,

Carl

As much as I would love to fill a bear tag, just seeing a lynx would make my week.   I've never seen a wild cat in the woods.

Same for the moose.  I've seen a few moose while driving around near my cabin but thats it.  I'd love to just see one while sitting in the stand.

Are we there yet?

I know, I am ready to go.  

It's good that I have a week though.  I came down with a nasty cold yesterday.  I just sat in my office feeling myself getting sicker.  It was too much to hope for that I would miss catching this as it ran through every person in our family.

At least I didn't come downwith it the day I was leaving.

That happened to me the last time I headed up. 2 days prior to leaving came down with tonsilitis and spent my week in camp with a really sore throat and major antibiotics.

I just got an e-mail from Tim at Ituksum-

" Hi Carl just getting back in from looking for a big bear but no luck the guy made a bad shot on it,he said that he was very excited being that he's shot bears before but not that big.Yes I have a grill here for you's to use.
                  See you soon..."


I think this is the second one lost by a rifle hunter this week.  kinda sad.


Leroy-

I never got that confirmation number from you.

Later,

Carl

Confirmation number?

Something we need for the trip or something else?  Not trying to be nosey, just making sure I didn't miss something.

LeRoy,

Do you know if there is a coffe pot already there?  I have my smallish (8 cup) ready to go just in case there is not one.
