[DRH1175]

I am pumped but it sure would have been nice to see what ate all my bait.

[Boar]

Cant wait for the hunting day to come, just hope the bears come in during shooting hours.

I have a feeling were Im hunting this year its going to be a zoo with hunters, I havent bumped into a lot of them this year yet but rumors have it that the place is full of hunters.

Me too...

I am back to 0 for 3. The one bear I had coming in is no where to be found. Little frustrated. Checking them every other day.

Just got back from our weekend trip. 3 of the 4 baits are getting hit. Looks decent. 1 station has 3 bears coming in all day long the last 4 days in a row. In fact when I baited yesterday one was standing on the logs as I pulled up at 12:30. The other station has 1 smaller bear coming in, but mostly at night. The 3rd station has a sow and a cub and a smaller bear. I hope they keep hitting during the daylight. Here are some pics, I don't have them all as I don't have enough chips to keep switching them.

[UNDBowhunter]

[jay83196]

Before and after shots, got one on opening day, 2 hours pouring rain, 3 hours of 85 deg and bugs weighed in at 234# not huge but really nice thick coat...

[Outdoor Authority]

well done Jay glad to see you got one. Looks like you will have some darn good table fair.

[reinhard1]

congradulations!!good luck.

[jay83196]

Thanks, anybody know a good taxidermist to get a rug done and how much are they typically I know they charge by the foot its about 5' my fish/ deer guy wants $800-$900 seems like a lot.

[Boar]

Hey nice job Jay, congrates! some tasty tasty rug steaks going on there, perfect table meat. again great job! Boar

Seems high, I got my full body done for $1000 but that was 12 years ago.

[jay83196]

I agree I figured 500- 600 but that probably low, anybody else have thoughts on it, or recommend anybody to do it.

[Boar]

Your looking at around 100-115 a ft. plus tax. on average maybe 125 high end. Talk to muthagoose he might no somebody to recomend. We both know someone for a mount but im not sure if she dose rugs. id trust her with a mount tho. I just donated her a head for shop display an am waiting for the skull. Next mount will be thru her. Later boar

[lakeshoremunster]

looks like I missed my bear again today, pulled the sd card and checked it after i hunted today, he came in again at 9am just like on 9-01, I knew I should have hunted the mornings.

Tomorrow is my last day I am able to hunt bear for the year so I guess I will be getting up in a few hours to go sit in tree for the whole day or until I see the bear.

Wish me luck, Hope to see a bear at least this year.

[Boar]

Got a new bear on cam from yesterday morn. that climebed up th ladder stand nice bear too. first u see the front paw an neck as he looking up, then u ee his torso then it the hind paws really cool pics, some how ill try an get them posted. go get him LSM, sleeping in dont work, good luck. Boar

[Matt Breuer]

HAha, boar, I love how you've resorted to describing the pictures to us! Good luck, sounds like a good one to take care of...

Nice bear, Jay!

I think my taxidermist charges $113 a foot, which isn't bad. He also gives guided bear hunters in our area 10% off, which is nice for guests. Your taxidermist possibly splits the tanning and stretching/tacking process up and charges that way? I've heard of that too, and it usually runs up in that $900 range.

[Boar]

LOL! It boars story book time withpout the pop up pictures, man thats funny, resorted to describing the pics.
