Black bear hunting

Most of my bear hunts have been baited, both in the US and in Saskatchewan. I'm headed back to SK the end of this month for another one. I do enjoy watching all of the activity at a bait site and you can learn a lot about bears by sitting quietly and watching them come and go. They exhibit a tremendous amount of body language up close that is helpful to know. They are all different from each other. I would like to do more boat based hunting for bears but don't downplay the baited hunts as you will learn a lot by sitting quietly and observing.
 
I’ve not hunted bears over bait, but I’ve hunted British Columbia for black bear a few times. Spot and stalk is a great hunt. I hunted with pacific bear outfitters which is now gunsight outfitters hunting out of Pemberton BC. Great folks to hunt with.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,
