This is my frist year to do a spring bear hunt looking forward to it.

Anybody seen any bears this year yet? I am heading out tomorrow towards my bear hunting spot over by wall creek to look around. They said the park bears have started coming out a month ago. Hopen to head out first or second week of may. Good luck everybody.

Good luck guys. Do any of you put a trail camera out?

[spedray]

Nope, every place I go is usually a good hour or two away. The bears tend not to stick around in one place. They just go from meadow to meadow.

I take it you dont put a bait out then. Do you use a riffle or bow?

Have you guys had any luck yet?

Season in Montana just opened today in some regions. Not all of them are open yet. However the bears have been out for atleast a month in some places. Glacier even has said there bears are out already. I probably won't get a chance to get out for about three or four weeks though, I am trying to get a turkey first. I was up in the Bridgers today and the house I was working at had a pet black bear that has been awake for 5 weeks. The mountain around southwestern montana are really losing the snow fast till we got another half a foot today. Shouild have made it easier for anybody that went out today. Good luck everybody.

Will do!! Get a brand new dig cam for the trip, so i'll have PLENTY of pics!!!  We're also gonna do some flyfishing up there, prime time for the big brookies!! I can see it now, drop a good chunk of change on a bear hunt and they wont be able to get me outta the streams!! HAHA no, bowhunting is #1!!!!
