I am ready to rock and roll bud. You knew that though. I am in a low density area but close to home to hunt it daily and tend to the bait without breaking the bank on gas........ Had a few in last year just never in shooting light so the camera says......... Good luck, I know I will need it................

Are you bear hunting in your hometown Frank?  Props to you if you are!  They're hard to come by around here! 

Good luck SD. Hope to see some pics of a nice boar.

Wish there where more bears down here to make it worth setting out some bait. I am heading North tomorrow for a  bear hunt/moose scout weekend.

thanks i appreciate it man but i had better concentrate on finishing up this woodlot then i have 3 foundations lined up after that w/ s**t tons of building. if i plan to do any deer hunting or bird/duck hnting w/ my new pup i gotta keep it to the grind stone this month. if i get really lucky i may take my bow w/ me and throw a stand up behind the landing and see if i cant plug one of those does that keep hangin around. we'll see. good luck w/ the bears man!

No, but only 15 mins. away from us, it will be a challenge no doubt, but a better chance than skipping out on it........

Sucks about the walk but hey, the walk in or out can be what makes it successful I know I have gotten my fair share of animals that way.

They will show up, you are in a prime spot and my area has some of the worst bear numbers in the state I just got lucky early. Last year they didn't find it until a couple days before the season ended :-\

Go back to school you slouch!

you dont have to tell me twice..

question how does bear baiting work, I know you are suppossed to have written land owner permission and register the bait site with f&G what is isnt privately owned land? I would imagine you still have to register the site but how do you get permission or is it even allowed?

Went up to the site tonight. Saw these tracks on the way in so took a pic. Bait has been hit but no bear tonight. Trail can took a bunch of pics but they are all white. I did get the times though but all in the morning. I brought the camera home hoping if I plugged it into the computer I could get some pictures but didn't work. Now I know why I don't use the stupid things. Ahh well. Taking my uncle up tomorrow to sit. Hopefully one showes for him.

nice pic!

reminds me of the stealth cams i used before switching over to moultrie...

Welp, my bait season is over, I can't hunt again until Saturday but that is when deer season opens so that's it for me. I will leave the camera and bait out for the last week and post some of my bear pics when I pull it on the 21st........ Just couldn't get one to show in daylight :-\

Same here. I had bears coming in but couldn't get them to show when I was there. The deer season started last weekend here in Maine and I don't have time to do both. Deer won out. I ended up giving my bear site up to a friend who just started a guide service and needed a few more sites. He will have a client on it all of next week. Maybe the client will get lucky.
Title: Re: Bear Baiting NH
Post by: aquaassassin on Sep 13, 2012, 06:57:15 PM
Right on! I still consider the bear season a success, where I live just to have a bear come in period is amazing........
