    Appreciate the content, Bernie. Very hard to find related content regarding bear baiting on the internet/social media so it’s nice to have this channel. Currently readijg your bear baiting manual right now as well.

      Glad you like them! It's a little different everywhere you go, but the bears and the main principles seem to hold true.

    Bernie, great video as usual. Very helpful. Question: what is it about tree farms (pines in rows) that you dont like?

    • @BowhuntingRoad
      @BowhuntingRoad  Год назад

      They have little food and typically don't have much understory to the area.

    Makes me feel better about my bait site locations, just a tough year overall for most guys in my unit.

      Northern Minnesota and Northern Wisconsin were tough this year for sure.

    I get so jealous of people who hunt sites with Archery tackle and the bears just keep coming in. I have been doing this for about 12 years now and very committed to the bow in hand but Bears completely quit coming in when I am in the stand but come continually when I am not there. I know they are smelling me. You mentioned the wind going down the hill into the swamps but seemed like you mentioned it in a way that was good so it would carry the scent of the bait to the bears. If it is carrying the scent of the bait, it is carrying your scent as well while you are sitting. I have searched MANY video's trying to find one that explains where to sit the tree stand vs. the bait with dominant winds vs thermals etc... People simply don't seem to care about the wind but yet it continues to kill me every year no matter what state i am in and multiple stands in the area. Please help me figure this out. if I set my stand below the bait and hope to bring bears from above the bait, when I get there 3 hours before dark, the thermals are going right up to the bears letting them know that something is up prior to the wind switching. Most winds come from the SW, NW or W. I try to keep the stand east of the bait and lower in elevation than the bait for the evening thermals. Last year my problem was that the bears were coming up from below and seemed to use the bottom of the draw for approach and there was absolutely NO place that I could be to avoid my scent going down the draw.

      Man I wish I had an easy answer for you. Honestly I do not take as much consideration into wind direction as I used to. I do reduce my odor impact using scent killing products, but more than anything I try to stay clean and as odor free as possible and just sit still. You cannot over state the value of being difficult to see by using background cover and sometime front cover, and most importantly do not move. Even opening a granola bar has save the lives of a lot of bears.

      You can try leaving your sweaty shirt tied up near the bait, everytime you bait put the new sweaty one to replace the old. Eventually they will get use to it and then you're golden.

    Bernie are you better off finding a natural little clearing to bait in, or clearing out an area in thick cover

    • @BowhuntingRoad
      @BowhuntingRoad  Год назад

      Either way, but some of the properties I hunt you are not allowed much cutting.

    What wind do you prefer to set up your sites for?

    • @BowhuntingRoad
      @BowhuntingRoad  Год назад

      The only wind I really pay attention to is the evening thermals which go downhill.

    • @andysponseller5941
      @andysponseller5941 Год назад +1

      How do you set up then? You said smell of bait would bring them in but what about your scent? Are you downwind of bait? I would think once they find it they would come in and you would want to worry about your scent or do you not worry? Why don't you hang a stand now so they can get use to it?

    • @BowhuntingRoad
      @BowhuntingRoad  Год назад

      @@andysponseller5941 Good questions. First, I put out more baits than I plan to hunt so I only put up a stand when I am sure I am going to hunt there. No sense doing all the unnecessary work. Over time I have learned that human scent is part of the package and I use scent killer to reduce it, but there simply is not a way to put your stand in a place that a bear will not smell you at every site. Some there are, which is great, but most bears go downwind of the bait before coming in anyway so I don't use that as a determining factor as much as I once did.

    Is one of these new sites, where someone put a bear bate close to you??
