    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    I got a few drums full of hostess stuff one year, great bear bait but like you mentioned the wrapping was a major pain. Stupid little wrappers would either stick to everything or get blown around by the wind.

    Wyoming outfitters tags ?

    The part that makes me scratch my head is most if not all of the outfitters seem to be booked up for the next couple of years. If they are already sold out what do they gain by the set aside?

    Wyoming outfitters tags ?

    I have no doubt that Wyoming will be able to raise whatever amount of money they need through NR license and PP sales, but it will be from a smaller pool of hunters that are willing/able to spend increasing amounts of money. I understand it and complaining about it will not change it. I just...

    Wyoming outfitters tags ?

    Is what they are proposing only for outfitters or are they talking about setting aside some tags for landowners who just charge a trespass fee?

    Wyoming outfitters tags ?

    Does anyone know what percentage of non residents currently uses outfitters. Most outfitters are currently booked up two to three years out so they must be getting a decent percentage of NRs now.

    Agreed, that’s one of the reasons I’ve never done it.

    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    Some folks haul a small pan and propane cooker out to their bait site an fry up a pound or two of bacon right there. They’ll leave the grease and bacon there, they claim it works well because the odor clings to the surrounding trees. I have never done it but it probably works.

    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    If I remember correctly you are not allowed to bait corn, grain or apples until September 1st or when ever the date is that you can start baiting deer. I would not use a lot of meet until you have a bear hitting the bait on a consistent basis.

    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    Fryer grease has gotten hard to get, 20 years ago I could get all that I wanted, I think a lot of it now gets recycled to biodiesel.

    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    Black oil sunflower seeds are the best thing that I have found. Not that bears are fussy but they will keep coming back for the black oil sunflower.

    Fuel prices affect

    Wind and Solar will not be capable of meeting demand until storage capacity technology is developed, if that ever happens. I was fortunate to be part of a joint project between the company I was working for and WE energies about 10 years ago. I learned so much during that project and am grateful...

    Trout fishing the Bighorns in August

    Wondering how the trout fishing is in the Bighorn mountains during late August? Trying to schedule a trip with my son and based on our schedules this looks like the most convenient time. Later than I had hoped but better late than never.

    Hunting Philosophy as you get older

    With point creep and tag numbers dropping for nonresidents, I’ve been thinking that my only chance to hunt some of the really good units is by winning a tag through one of the raffles for commissioners tags. Long shot at best but at least the money goes to good causes. I’ve never built up a lot...
