The 2014 bear season started on August 25 and runs about 4 weeks. The bear were very active at most of our sites throughout the baiting month. With many trail camera pictures coming in each time we would bait, expectations for the upcoming season were high. Each bait site had multiple bears hitting at different times of the daylight hours. The pictures ranged from early morning hours to the late evening minutes just before legal time ended.
Congratulations to Tom from Virginia on tagging out on his first night on stand with a beautiful 280 lb bear. Although he put his time in last year (2013) and never shot a bear. Just goes to show that time on the stand is about the only thing that puts the odds in the hunters favor. But bears will be bears. Our second hunter here, also from Virginia, only got to see an outline of a bear in the late evening hours, although it was still "legal" time, we thank him for making a great decision and not taking a less than perfect shot. Tracking a wounded bear at night is not fun or recommended.
