WoW Biff how many sites do ya run? I cant imagine having that much bait on hand. I'm fortunate to have 80 acres of private land in no quota E of Red Lake Falss Mn about 15 minuets form home an have only one site I use, two on ajacent property if I need so it dont take that much bait to cover one site. Boy I'm really small time here. I usually pick up a couple bags of berry an cream bear lunch, 10 gal. of mollases some horse feed, bushell of oats, burnt huney if I can find it spendy though, an as many doughnuts as I can freeze, pizza throw out from a c-store, home made scents from liquid smoke to anise, I you mix 1 cup sugar to one cup water bring it to a boil then simmer for ten minuets it make a great syrup the add a cuple teaspoons of anise or liquid smoke, this makes a great burn on stand. I like to get out my turkey fryer an boil up several gallons of either mollasses or burnt honey for a syrup to add for a topping to my bait. Takes alot of sugar though but it's cheap. I had posted before about these plastic quart jar pumper sprayers that I'm gonna fill with water an liquid smoke or anis to spray foliage an for cover scent in stand. Anyway I hope everyone has succes an is safe this year, it's comeing up quick. Later Boar

Last year I didn't have much variety. The bear I got only liked one thing in my bait station(Berry patch bear lunch). I wanted more variety and I wanted to make sure that I had enough to make multiple bait stations if need be. I know that one bear is enough but if my cousin and I each harvest one I will have enough to make more bait stations. I read in the hunting forum that two bears were shot in the Dalbo WMA during hibernation. That is were I will be hunting this year. There is not to many bears around so this really ticks me off. The poster said they were shot and one of the heads were cut off. I am going to call the DNR tomorrow and see what the story is.

I am so BORED- I'm not getting any bait this year since I hired a guide and I already miss collecting the bear bait- I had some good times baiting and miss all the hard work that goes into baiting- I will be back next year and w/o a guide so I don't miss all this fun next year!!!! Good Luck to you all- Keep me inform with all the hits come Aug.

I called the local CO and the two bears were not poached. One of the bears was from a farmer when harvesting his field ran one over and the other was from a previous TIP case. He told me that they dump them in the management area when they want to get rid of them for the coyotes to snack on.
