Hunt247365 2015 WI Bear Season
Well both my dad and I pulled our first WI bear tags for this fall in unit C. I started 4 baits back in late May (Cedar Site, Skeeter Site, Tick Site and Death Swamp). 3 of the 4 baits had bears on them from less then 24hr-3 days to get a hit. Death Swamp site is the only spot to never get a hit but they were doing logging just a few hundred yards from that spot which is what screwed that spot up I think. They pulled everything out from there last week and will give that spot a little while longer to see if I can get it started. Then here in July started 2 more baits up (Lake Site and Maple Grove Site) and had bears on them in 2 or less days. So far have been baiting every 4-5 days and after next week will pick that up to 2-3 days and end of Aug every day. Will also be starting up 5 more baits after next week. Have all baits 3/4mi-1.25mi hike in which I hope keeps me away from other hunters and so far no sign of dogs running any of my baits.
So far between the 5 baits that have bear on them have gotten 25 bears not counting the handful of cubs. Have a good number of bears that I would be very happy to put in the freezer. Also have started to get a good pattern on them as some show up everyday, some 3-4 a week and a few about once every 10-12 days on the dot.

Nice!!
When that big buck walks towards you this fall, concentrate on your breathing and get your eyes off his antlers.

Re: Hunt247365 2015 WI Bear Season
Thanks guys. I have been baiting with cookies, cookie dough, popcorn, trail mix, sugar cones, granola and a special grain mix as my main part of bait. Some times just one of them at a time or mixing of 2 of them at a time. Along with that mix carmel, raspberry pie filling, blueberry pie filling, French Fri oil, doughnut filling, apple pie filling, peanut butter, maple syrup, chocolate sauce and strawberry/banana mix and some mix candy one at a time. I keep mixing things up and seem to be working so far. Will keep updates and pics coming. Hoping for a 200+lb for my goal.

Checked baits yesterday and all 5 baits were hit. The skeeter site though really fell off over the past 5 days with only 26pics and 4 bear. Normally been getting 130pics and 6-8 bear every 5 days but the raspberry are really out now I see so maybe that has something to do with it. The maple grove site that had just the one small bear at it had a new bear show up that is a bit nicer. Will check baits again on Sat and see how things look then and will post some more pics.

My baits took a hit last week too, but I don't think its the berrys, its the dogs... I even got pic's of dogs running thru my baits.
