Bears: Who is still seeing them?

[Ron]

Anyone seeing any bear activity?  All of my cameras went radio silent on bears 2 weeks ago.

That's because there are no bears in this state or not the numbers that people complain about. The people that have bears on camera and complain about them are the only ones that have bears LOL. I honestly believe they only plant a few to piss. A few people off like @BHC

I was hoping to try to find one the end of the week. But cold, little warm up, crap rain and then cold again is not a good bear recipe.

We put out 1000lbs of bread and sweets in September and October in "bear country" had them on camera probably all fake. 32 hours in the woods didn't see nothing even a shadow.

For six day for past few weeks put out 500+lbs of doughnuts one bear totally inconsistent and watching all my deer setting themselves up for diabetes lol.

I still call BS on a bear problem or bears seen

I have bear activity in every area i hunt.  Mostly nightime this time of year.

Had one on camera last night.

My many bears are usually sows both with and without cubs. All but one sow denned about 7-14 days ago. Last picture I have was roughly 11pm Sunday and it was a sow with her two cubs. They didn’t show at that stand yesterday or last night. Typical for Sparta Mountain most years. But the October season is just the opposite and they are like so many mosquitoes.
