Bear hunting in the rain

Unread postby Ravenhunter » Fri May 26, 2017 9:05 am

I've been sitting in the rain all morning and all afternoon. Do bears still hit bait sites in the rain? Or am I just being very optimistic.

Bears will hit baits in the rain. My cameras have shown good rain movement

I agree with Dan
Make sure you have a double lung shot in the rain

Small bear came in with 45 min left of legal. Same bear I saw the previous night. He just won't come into the bait. Big one showed up in the bait at 345am. Guess back at it tonight. Last sit. I think I'm going to move my stand.
