Good luck to all going out this weekend! Have fun, play safe, and take lots of pictures! The season is upon us and hopefully the end of cabin fever for most:-D. I look forward to some good stories in the next couple of weeks. Again best of luck. LR

Holding Out For Grizz...

I have to work the first 4 days of the season, but I dont think that there will be too many bears out yet, atleast not in the East Kootenays.

I hope you get a good one. :wink:

Maybe you should try around Hope and Sowaqwa near the lower Coquihalla for that huge brown bruin I saw last year.

Some here have also seen him and labeled him the "Hope Monster".... maybe 400 to 500 lbs. I got a grainy low light picture of him last spring and he was a real hog.

I will not be upset if you take him. I will applaud you if you do.

cheers

Thanks for the info but I don't do hogs anymore:mrgreen:, I will get out in the next couple weeks with one other lazy ass mod, looking for a tender meat bear.

Sorry this thread just reminded me that it is now hunting season!

[SHAKER]

Wow, simmer down their guys it's only april and it's only Bears! Good luck to all, but I'll be waiting till some snow leaves the good bear country first!

[835]

We dont need to see bears, just need to go looking for them.
and here on the island there isnt much or any snow.

[Caribou_lou]

I'm up in region 6, I won't be going out until April 18. Thats early too! Mid may is best.
Good luck to everyone on the upcming weekend.

My wifes cousin is getting married this weeked, I dont understand what kind of a human will pick hunting season to get married in.

[GoatGuy]

Apparently we had a yogi in behind the tack shed the other morning. Gotta get the licence.

[finish]

[jaeger]

Went out yesterday morning for a couple of hours and got stuck in the snow with my quad, alittle to early for this neck of the woods, (South Okanagan) No snow in the low elevations but nothing to green yet either!

[Darksith]

[Gr8 white hunter]

To much snow? then come over to the island.

Might be the same one my Buddy saw by the toll booth. He was a biggun.

Every year I laugh at these April 1st bear hunting threads. Even with a mild winter like this one, you ain't going to have much luck until the end of April, with May being the best bang for your buck. Why such a hurry to get out and see nothing but snow????

[KB90]

Why such a hurry to get out and see nothing but snow????

CAUSE IM SICK OF LOOKING AT THIS COMPUTER SCREEN:-D

[dana]

So you'll sit in a truck and suck up fumes all day in a vague hope to see that 1 in a million bear that woke up early?? Why not just put the boots on a go for a hike and maybe find some antlers. Bring the camera along and maybe you'll see some other wildlife too.

Who says I haven't been doing that either? Shed Count = 2.5 :-D

I think people are just excited to get their guns out and get out in bush. I've been out lots this winter for predators so I don't mind waiting until may.

But i also enjoy going for a cruise in the YJ with my dad checkin out some new areas. Most likely won't see a bear but its still exciting to know they are open.

in our neck of the woods the bears are out not in big numbers yet. roads and slashes that are brown this time of year are very green. we had a nasty wind storm up here today with snow dropping down low. we hiked up and got shooters trail cam today. i would much rather be doing that than going to work or sitting around the house. anyways every day you are out there in your secret honey holes you learn something new about the area. good luck everybody, and i am sure there will be many pics to come soon.

[kamloopshunter]

monday morning!

[hunter1947]

When you do find a black this early it will probably be a boar they are always the first out in the spring.

The sows are latter coming out I guess many have young one to take care of so thats why they are latter.
