I was gonna wait til January to ask this stuff but im to excited. im planning on going to wy this spring for a diy bear hunt. ive got an area picked out so not asking for gps coord, only how to.
first, the regs stated you have to get permission from the local dnr for a spot to bait. I assume your using your gps coord for that but im gonna be driving aways so cant drive several times. how do you guys get your bait spots registered.
second, after you have your spot registered what bait seems to work best for them. I don't have access to a lot of pastries. I may have some rest grease but not positive about that yet. as of right now im planning on using bacon grease an soaking it in cheap dog food. stupid idea? will be using a 55 gallon barrel an plan on taking it up around 10 days before the hunt. putting 150 lbs of dog food an grease in it, setting up stand, then going back during hunting season.
third, what do you guys look for for a good bait spot in wy. im assuming you want to be a couple hundred yds from water but does elevation make a difference.
thanks for any an all info. again this will be a learning experience for me. I don't have to kill anything for this to be successful. it will be successful as soon as I sit in the stand for the first night. I appreciate any insights to cut the learning curve thou.
