First Bear

Unread postby spekel » Tue Sep 14, 2021 12:38 am

Harvested my first bear in the UP on Friday night. Waited 9 years to draw a 1st season tag. Spent the last four weeks driving the 4.5 hours from my home to our camp and running 3 bait sites. This was 100% DIY and I am super excited to harvest my first bear! On public land, about a 35 yard shot. Very exciting experience.
