I probably won't get out much for spring bear. My wife is going to be super busy with work and some courses she is taking and practicum too I believe. Still hoping I can get her out at least for one trip and get my brother out for another trip. Maybe I'll take an HBC greenhorn out for first crack at a new spot I found. That would be best case scenario. I don't plan on actually pulling a trigger this year. If I do, it's either with a bow, or rifle on one specific bear that I'd throw lead at any given opportunity.
I doubt fall GOS will be any different, except I am going to make every effort possible to save all my time off so I can do more hunting than working during GOS and maybe, just maybe, fulfill my dream of taking a mature blacktail from the pocket that I have been trying to learn for years.
What are you thinking about for 2019 srupp? I bet you are thinking about hitting the lakes just as much as bears for the spring... as am I.. what about the fall?
