The "BigHunt" 2018

[BigHunt]

Glad you each pulled a tag! I was rooting for you last year - remember that you had action right away but the big one gave you the slip.

Seems like there are some good bear numbers around your baits - awesome for you guys!

The whole log thing is new to me - the guys I hunted with bait bears in ME using plastic 55-gallon drums. How do you process the logs? Cut to length and hollow it out with a chain saw?

Are you both gonna trophy hunt this year?

I walked around in a freinds woods and found a hallowed tree that was down. Cut that into sections.

She going to kill the first bear that comes in

Im going after a big one

Looking good Tyler

Cant wait to see the progress you two have! Will be following, all that hard work will pay off no doubt

[BigHunt]

headed on up this Moring to run baits. all 5 were hit. I pulled a bait because a guide popped up 100 yards away from it ...its cool I only had sow and cubs on it anyway

kayaked In and the bait was completely smashed

[BigHunt]

we headed to the remote bait next and was pleasantly surprised


there is now a shooter bore and two 8 pointes

[BigHunt]

I had high hopes for this spot as which it was the area I was after the giant last year … no pics of a bore yet just a sow with 3 cubs keep us entertained

[BigHunt]

I finally pulled a log down into this set. same bear as last week...no day time pics this week but he was there all week

[BigHunt]

the last bait is the best one I think. bears are in all times off the day and the quality of bears is amazing..I think well kill here for sure
last Sunday after I baited it only took 2 hours for the first bear to come in

[BigHunt]

Heading up in the morning to set camp... stay tuned

Good luck you seem have plenty of bears.

My baits in zone c have slowed down and I’ve noticed a lot of acorns falling.

I'm thinking if you have good action like you have this close to the season you'll be dragging one out soon!

Do you have reinforcements for the job or are you planning on skinning, quartering, and sledding out in trips?

You got a good women there to follow you through the woods and swamps like that. Great stuff for you guys to share together!
Hope both of you get a good one!

I am not far from him and will bring help, and bighunt will help me... We are both having real good daylight action. Only sucky thing is the rain.
