"Its a boy" went out today to refresh the bait, have not been able to hunt since Monday, and can't today either.  But tomorrow morning I'm going from 10:00 to 13:00 hours.  I took everyone's advice and made a attractant trail mix for around the bait, pancake syrup, bacon grease, salt and a few other special ingredients? this should leave some good smelly, sticky trails. Mom and three cubs are still coming at night all night, so at first was thinking, "I'm only feeding a family" but something is coming at noon still.

just noticed I think the 11:00 and 18:00 bears are two different bears.  11:00 boar has squarer face and is maybe bigger.

If the rut is on,the boars may need to be somewhere else,meaning where there is a sow in heat or near heat.That would mean the home range of a female with yearling cubs or who just kicked them off.That will be the boar's priority right now.

Well another 3 hours  tonight, nothing has touched or come to the bait since last Thursday.  the weather (cold single digits, heat + 30 and rain for two days, rut, my stench, wrong baits, change in patterns, etc.

I have 3 days and two hunting days until seasons end. Hope old pumpkin head shows up.  

If not this season, I will switch in June to S and S, in my hay fields of dandy lions where the season goes to the end of June and then to the fall season.
