I'm still a couple weeks out from my hunt, had to pick timing based on work and home life.....hopefully things pick up a little by then!

Your trip should be timed well then. The SW has good amounts of bears, just alot of small ones(like Labrador size). If I hadn't moved farther North I'd probably still be getting the SW tag every year.

I've been out 3 times in the mid-cascades and have yet to see one. I'm gonna try and hunt tomorrow and Friday in the good weather. Things should be getting good here soon.

Been out a bunch in SW. 3 buddies are tagged out. I watched two yesterday and couldn't get close enough in time for a shot.

I really just want to get a bear on the ground, but labrador size is pretty damn small!!! Hoping for more like a St Bernard at least!

The two I saw yesterday, one appeared large Labrador size. The other St. Bernard+.

Haha...maybe I'll get lucky and find one that's actually bear sized!

I bet if you do shoot a bear, it will, 100% guaranteed, be the size of a bear!!! Good luck!

Who is spring bear hunting?

Whelp, I got a tag for South Central, but this is my first year doing this so more of a learning experience, really. If I connect, it will be due to sheer luck <g>.

Nice work guys. It's been slow but still seeing few here in the NE corner. Let this guy walk the other day.

That’s a nice bear.

Y

That’s a nice bear.

Ya, he was a pretty good one. I'm not an expert. I think he's a solid boar right at the beginning of his prime. I've killed a few decent bears over the years but never really big one. I have a lot of time this year so I'm holding out.
