Spent the last few days getting the baits ready to go. Season opens April 22nd. ![[Linked Image]]( https://i.imgur.com/QTmgKQp.jpeg) Moving one of my baits this year to a new location. It’s always exciting to see what shows up in a new area! ![[Linked Image]]( https://i.imgur.com/Xz4pQ2B.jpeg) Barrel is all setup and baited at the new spot. Should only take a day or two for the first bear to show up! ![[Linked Image]]( https://i.imgur.com/hbPBHCo.jpeg) View from the treestand. 16 yards treestand to the barrel. ![[Linked Image]]( https://i.imgur.com/ERsKEMg.jpeg) Man there’s still lots of snow in the bush in some spots! ![[Linked Image]]( https://i.imgur.com/LyUIX0l.jpeg) And a look at the 2nd bait from the treestand. 18 yards treestand to the barrel at this one. I’ll post pics of some bears as they come in. If anyone wants to show their Spring Bear action too, that would be cool!
Cold as ice!

That second pic from the bottom- looks like a big pair of eyes staring out from behind the tree.
Looks like a big black thing standing upright,maybe a bear,or...

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

looks good how high off the ground is barrel The top of the barrel is about 4 1/2 feet from the ground. Will be in Manitoba at the end of May. Awesome! Good luck!

You Canucks sure do some strange and unnecessary things to bait in bears. Lol.
Good luck though.
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Yeah we do! I’m sure you know what it’s like to hunt where I do. Why doesn’t the wise one tell us how it’s done? Always one schmuck will post something negative on a good thread!
