Claudia- I hunted with Monty McKenzie out of Bisset, Manitoba last year. He is good guy. Several of his bowhunters saw wolves. Some at less than 20 yards, but neither one took shots due to shot angle or a little too dark. The fishing is good as well. I hunted in the spring, but the weather was too cold, so I went back in the fall and took this bear on Hobbs Lake. Have fun, Mike

I heard about your hunt from Mont, Mike.  That's a nice bear! Hope I fare as well this June!

Have a great hunt Claudia.. Take a bunch of pics and please share with us when you get home.

Other than a few spring trips I usually hunt bears in the fall.  October this year in Arkansas then an August trip next year to Maine.

Awesome bear Herdbull.

Bears are just COOL...!  Spot n stalk after bears is by far my favorite animal to bowhunt.

We can't bait either - spot and stalk - so if you are on a bait...like somebody said earlier...be patient and wait for a good one.

I am not sure with the one lung recovery though....we had a fella ham one and recovered it, but we didn't push him either...he made five beds and was dead in the last one.

Not the shot you want, but it was his first bear adn out of a stand...hit way back...patience is best.

I prefer spot and stalk, but can't always go, so fly-in hunts are a good second choice. Make the hunt as difficult as you want by waiting for a mature one...not always easy.

Headed to Reindeer Lake in Saskatchewan in mid June.  Should be a great hunt with some awesome fishing.

I will be doing my first bear hunt this spring.  It will be my father and I. We will be doing a drop camp here in Oregon.
Never been bear hunting before look forward to learning more about it and spending time with my dad in the woods.

Claudia,

Looking for some Good Stories coming out of Canada...Good luck!

I'll be back at Bear Quest with Tilly's pup Cash for tracking.  I'm actually more excited to see how she'll work on bears.  I've never taken Tilly just because she works deer so well.  Bill Kisner will also have his Jaeg terrier Suzie the first week.  Should be some great tracking training with the number of bears taken up there...Doc

Sounds like a great way to celebrete your 50th.  I'm going this September on a 7 day black bear hunt in Ontario.  Been waiting 2 years, and only 6 months to go.  Good luck to you.
