Somebody is going to have a great hunt!  Wish I could just stay for another week.

I have been itching to go on another Canadian bear hunt...
My last hunt was in Quebec in 2014. I got my first bear on that trip.
Do yo have a high number of color phase in Manitoba?

Jason-
Yes, there are a lot of color phase at Stickflingers.  I have taken a chocolate and saw several cinnamon and blonde bears as well while hunting with Ryan.

What are the avg sizes?
In Quebec bores avg 200-250. At least where I go. However, there are so many bears there, that there is a lot of compition for food!

Hey guys! Thx for the reply’s. Sent you an email Terry. As for size, I feel weight is a measurement that is often an estimate or approximation so we try to stay away from weights. If we wanted heavy bears we’d hunt them in the fall. Fall hunts are not as consistent as spring so we keep it to spring. That said, I’m sure our bears at least match the ones of the east.

This is a great place and a great experience. I killed a bear there last year and had a terrific time. There will be times when there are so many bears banging around that you might want the activity to drop back a few clicks. Ryan is a first class gent and this place will exceed your expectations.

In 2018 I saw 43 different bears and only hunted five days.  There was never too long of a stretch without some bear activity. Some bears would chase others off into the woods and other bears would sneak in to snack before the dominant bear returned. There were cubs in the trees around me many times. They would climb way up and then fall asleep on these tiny little branches to wait for Mom to eat. Some times it's hard to get out of the stand, because the bears are still on the bait.
Last year I had a gorgeous cinnamon/blonde sow even climb up my ladder to check me out.

Been there twice and saw over twenty bear on my bait each trip.  Multiple color phase as well.   Black, chocolate,  cinnamon, and yellow.  My last one will easily make Pope and Young, if I decide to enter it. See my avatar.

You also get to meet some great bow hunters from all over the country.
And, Ryan is just plain fun to be around, when he isn’t working his butt off to give you a chance at a really big bear.

I love that place.

If you are thinking about this hunt, don't hesitate to make the commitment. Not a problem to go solo. I had a great time and made a late decision to go when an opening like this became available. Based on my experience, you will likely make some friends that will hang with you long after the hunt...you will speak "traditional" for the solid week, you will have multiple, multiple opportunities to the point that some encounters will get your heart rate pretty darn high....and you will kill a good bear unless you pass and pass and pass etc...Ryan is a great outfitter and the value and quality of the hunt is unsurpassed. Talk to Ryan or others who have been up. PM me if you would like to as well.
