    Just anout wvery bear has them so if it creeps ypu out done shoot them.
    Trich in bears can not be killed by your home freezer it will not go low enough for long enough

    Yup, I saw some filarial worms on the bear I caught a couple weeks ago. He is going to be smokies and pepperoni, so should be fine.

    They're a lot of fun on the 4wt... 10ft leader and 2lb tippet... no strike indicator (takes away all the feeling) It's pretty challanging... they'll have you into the backing and sometimes takes a while before they run out of steam so you can scoop them up with gentle release net though.
