The Spring Bear Hunt is very good.
This Spring we saw over 80 bears in
just 60 days time. Spring Bear have
the best hides and you will see mostly
big boars. It is pretty much a spot
and stalk hunt. We will glass grassy
meadows and clearcuts usually resulting
in several sightings. The country
is steep and brushy; but we can expect
to find the bears where the grass
is out in the openings; similar to
Prince of Wales in Alaska. Our right
to use dogs for bear hunting was taken
away in 1994, and since then the bear
populations in Oregon have exploded.
The Fall Bear Hunt is much the same as
the Spring Hunt except that we hunt
the massive blackberry patches that
grow like gang busters in this area.
It is very common to get both Spring
and Fall bears over 300 lbs. About 50% of the bears we take are color-phased, most being cinnamon/red or chocolate in color. |
