They dropped the permits another 50 down from the year before in the area I hunt in. That's good to see but it still doesn't solve the over population of bear guides in this area.

Dan, 2 questions.

that unit you hunt, do you have pretty good odds of getting a tag every year?

Are you planning on going this year?

Lou,
I get a tag just about evey year... But that seems to be changing as more people apply and less permits are given.
I would really like to go again this year, but Im hurting for money and contiplating it. Splitting the cost between a small group might make it doable.

Dan, I would love to go, but the distance to bait for me is just too far. I am really contemplating doing a UP hunt this year. Dont want to hijack Schultzy's thread, so I started another one with a season question on MI check it out. If you are interested in MI, I would very likely join in and that could help you with costs.
