That is a different Chocolate sow btw. I think we saw a dozen different ones. Many, MANY kilometers between baits.

Happily I can say I was in on the first season at Stickflingers and hope to be allowed back for many more. We've seen a lot of changes as things have grown and been constantly refined. I think Ryan has things just about how he wants now. Hunters have big roomy wall tents to stay in, running water, flush toilets, hot showers, and a nice cooking area.

Comfy cots too...

Top notch quads to get around in the bush and top notch chauffeurs:

And the two best dressed bear hunters in camp :D

Sitka or Kuiu? Can you see how much we despise each othe for our choice of clothing???

Kevin--did you see this little fella at Elk Rub?

He was especially bold at dark when I would get down. Not so much when anything else in the woods moved or made a sound :D

Gary here you go. If you have more send away.

Glad I got to meet you and it is easy to tell that smile is genuine. Congratulations!

Well done guys. I miss that place. Mike

This is outstanding stuff guys. I knew right away when Ryan started doing bear hunts that this is where I will I go for my first time. Never met him in real life but he's about my age and I trust him just from his posts here on Tradgang. I can't wait to do it.
Gary, I really love your story. Congratulations! My favorite part is where the both of you bowed your heads and said a prayer in thanks. Good stuff! Well done guys!

That's Bunkie. He tippy-toed right under my feet on a slanted log, then ate some bait. After that he went straight up the barrel tree and ended up about 75' high...laid up there like a Canadian leopard with his legs dangling. I've got some fine video from this trip and maybe I'll do some snaps out it.

I'm just catching up on this thread. Lots of great stories and some beautiful bears guys! Congratulations to everyone. Ryan sure runs an excellent camp!

Cyclic-Rivers · « **Reply #155 on:** June 18, 2015, 07:22:00 AM »

Congrats Gary, Well told story. I hope next time your son will be able to join you in camp.

Steve, with that sea of Estrogen, I'm surprised you didn't see every boar in the village.... Come back this fall.... lol...

I still have not decided if I would like to hunt bears over bait but if I ever do, it looks like Ryan's camp is where I want to be.

Enjoying all of it!

Great Thread! really makes me want to go on a Bear hunt..

MnFn · « **Reply #158 on:** June 18, 2015, 02:51:00 PM »

Yes Ray,
I had another bow set up with Snag's surewoods, but the Blacktail just shot these Sitka Spruce that I got through Ron at Shrew so well, I had to go with them.

Although not as heavy as Surewoods, it blew completely through the bear. I think the total arrow was around 600 grains, tho I don't remember for sure.

Really enjoyed the post. Sounds like everyone had a great hunt and came away ready to return. Congrats to all and thank you for sharing your experience.
