Got the boy out to help set up his bait more. Put a v shaped barrier behind the bait to force the bear to come in broadside or quartering away. Also hung two old shirts and sprayed with scent. Bait was not hit yet. We are going to put up the ladder stand tonight. .   |

Stand is up. I need to add a little more cover to it yet. Hopefully now I can leave it alone and we get some bears on cam   |

Your corn will draw in the Bears, so they should find your bait eventually.
Do you have a lot of bears in your area?

MY BIL has a huge sow with five cubs this year. Two years ago she had SIX cubs and he was featured in Outdoor news. (I had said last year in an earlier post......and had to ask him the other day.....but it was two years ago.....DUH!).
Anyway......the bears were all up in his tree by the house the other day......as he sat on his patio.....the bears stared coming down. He got kinda excited when the Sow started down too. Grin. He has ALLOT of bears.....and cannot draw a tag.

I have tons of bears on my land in WI and I can only get drawn every 8 years or so now. I last hunted in 2013 and I should get drawn next year. Hopefully that changes with the new zones that will be implemented next year.
