Anyone pull a permit in Michigan or Wisconsin? First hunt Baraga for me. I ran a camera over a couple test baits 2 years ago.



First pics this year, I have others, any size guesses?

Passed on a bear tonight looked like about 200lbs, had a neat white horseshoe shape on his chest. It's early and I'm hoping for a bigger one. It's been a huge success from the aspect I've seen bears and had the opportunity already to take one, can't ask for anything more from a rookie.

Wow, nice. You showed more restraint than I would have, so good on you.

In my experience bear is delicious.

"Will trade ammo for bear meat".

@Macker13 - how did things shake out?

So been a pike fishing/bear hunting week, bears at one bait are nocturnal for the most part, the 200 lb male is Mr. Reliable at the other bait. I'm freshening baits up tomorrow, back downstate for a few days, then back up for a final week. I'll post pics of anything interesting that shows up.
Thanks for checking in!
