day today it's dead calm um we did see a really good bear yesterday he was far
out walking away from us not really an option these bears they will do big circles and so he
maybe you may have walked five miles yesterday and he may come right back our way today um
today's gonna be a really good day i'm hoping the bear movement will come you know spike up
with the warm weather we don't want to walk all over this place because we're kind of hunting
off this little knob and the more we put our scent out the more we walk around the less chance a bear
is going to come closer to us so when we go on a stock it's a very calculated risk we don't want
to go walking two or three miles away if we don't think it's a good option you have a better chance
just staying put in that bear coming around in a day or two then you trying to chase after him
always away and then scenting up everything and creating a poor atmosphere for bear hunting around
where you need to be so that's kind of how i like to do it that's our that's my mindset a bunch
of waterfall around here too so cool all right i'm gonna get back to class and keep you posted
so
all right we are hunting on the beach
and that's what they can throw you off i want to watch him walk
what i'm hoping is as the tide starts to come out he wants to go ahead and work this way
we'll see he might just do his little thing mill around in there but we got the wind for it
this is color i think he's a pretty good oh yeah
all right it's midnight springtime bear hunting never ends
we stay up real late for these bears and uh this is a a beach there's like lots of like floats and
different stuff that came off fishing boats kind of makes for an exciting little scavenger hunt
but uh yeah it's it's midnight right now and this is a good time for bears to come out so
okay real over here get him again get him again good shot
good shot
right now it's high tide which is not ideal uh for beach access and also uh sea access when the tides
low these bears come out to the low tide and the tidal flats and they'll they'll dig up muscles and
clams and you know sometimes there's seals that get killed and get washed up that kind of stuff so
um but nonetheless they still cruise the beach because right now in the spring it's rut time so
you know big wars could still be cruising kind of along this tight blue coastline
hmm
gosh look at that dude
day two alaskan hunt with ian and tim second day we're all sitting around the beach
and our guide's going crazy trying to decide whether they should stay there or try a new spot
where ian had been seeing this big boar so he decided he'd be a hero or a zero so he brought
us over here climbed up the cliff and first thing we see is this bad boy walking down he comes back
and gets us we get all set up and the bear comes out at 35 yards he says take the shot we didn't
so it was a great decision on the guides part great hunt great guys recommend it for anybody
and we got the bear to load here
yep yep keep going keep going just call you go to your knees or just front squat that sucker there
go to get to all fours yep gets all fours and then crawl up like a little baby
there you go
and and we're up nice that's way better than that
trying to sniff out some potential females that will they can breed with it and females will do
it too the south will come in and and try to sniff out boars and try to get get some attention and
but it's long hours in the spring i mean we're up at four and we are glassing until
well past midnight so it's best to run shifts and kind of glass and shifts and yeah it's fun
it doesn't get any better the weather's perfect breezy mosquitoes are out but it's it's awesome
so
you
