Bear Cam Pics (Somebody Killed a Bear!!) Pics on Pg. 6
« on: May 11, 2007, 05:19:00 PM »
Well, do you????

I have had a bait out for 2 weeks now and I can't keep the barrel full!  I finally remembered to bring my camera and put it in on Monday to get some pics.  It is not a high dollar fancy model and I didn't get pics of all the action, but I got a few decent pics I thought I would share.  I might hunt it finally next week.

Not a bad bear at all.  I was hoping for a colored, but I might shoot this one if it shows up.

This one has already started to rub out a bit as you can see.

I got very poor quality before and after photos of the barrel an hour or so before this shot was taken.  HE DRAINED THE BARREL without getting his picture taken and then posed for this one as he was leaving after "Happy Hour".

This is me getting ready to make the half mile hike back out of the bush to my truck after carrying in the bait, refilling the barrel and setting the trail camera.

Here is a pic of a Sow and Cub.  I think if I pushed real hard, I could stuff him in that 7 gallon bucket.  I would of course need to be wearing a kevlar suit and be high on some illegal drug to do that.  LOL!!!!!

Very cool. Bear are very interesting critters. Fun to watch.

Don't know what happened to the last pic!  GRRR!!!

Here is the last pic I got which you can barely make out the paw of the cub as it smacked my camera.  LOL!!!!  The camera was no the worse for the wear, just pointed toward the ground half way around the tree from where it was.  HA HA HA!!!  I almost expected them to eat the camera.  Glad I got lucky so far.

Thanks Leroy!

Ferret,

They remind me of a cross between a circus clown and a 2 year old little kid with just a tiny bit of mongrel dog thrown in the mix.  LOL!!!

I had a ball watching a bear I chose not to shoot last year roll around and play on a pile of bread and grease I put out on the ground on my last hunt last season.  I almost laughed out loud several times.  LOL!!

I carried in a few more play toys and more food for them today.  I took in a 25 gallon metal drum FULL of Meat scraps with molassas covering it.  I also brought in a 25 gallon plastic drum with a wired on lid full of popcorn with a little molassas and frenchfry oil for good measure and 2 1" holes for them to wiggle and shake the kernals out one at a time.  I figured it would keep them interested after they drain the main barrel.  I also wired a 5 gallon bucket full of ROTTEN meat up on the side of a tree.  The bucket has several holes drilled in it to let the JUICES drain out.  LOL!!!  I thought it might bring in a few more bears by the smell and I dont' think they can get it open, but knowing them, they WILL!!!  All that with a barrel full of popcorn and meat scraps again should keep them busy till I get back out on monday or tuesday.  Still not sure if I am going to hunt it then or not.  I might wait a little bit longer to hopefully catch a BIG BOAR cruising for a hot Sow as they come in heat.

Thanks for the pics. I'm going on the Bear hunt/bowbuild two weeks from today. Maybe you can give a few tips for a new bear hunter. How long will they feed at the bait? (long enough for my pulse to settle down I hope) Where do you aim on a broadside shot? etc. Also on that second pic. (hard quartering away) could a person aim for the off front leg and have a lethal shot? I want to know as much as I can.

Thanks in advance

Slim,

I am a relative Bear Newbie Myself.  I think Ted will be able to teach you much more than I could ever begin to.  LOL!!!

That should be a fun week.  Be sure and take lots of pics to share with us!

That's why the bears like me David!  LOL!!!

I used to work with a fellow at a steel bar processing plant back when I was in my second year of Bible College that walked up to me one day with a real serious look on his face that said, "YOU ARE ONE SICK AND TWISTED INDIVIDUAL; I respect that in a man!"  HA HA HA!!!!

Just talked to the man that pointed me to baiting at this location and he is going with me on Tuesday and hopes to video me doing exactly what Stobber wished, "Sticking a Big'un!"

Will have more pics at least if nothing else by tuesday night.
