One quick announcement: If you are considering shooting a sow in Montana bear units with a quota, please stop and re-evaluate your life decisions. That is all.

I’m mounting a belt fed .50 in the back of my truck next year for the Rock Creek sneak.

As long as I'm invited I'm good with it.

You’re in. We can throw in a keg or two as well. And we can bring @JLS and Finn to blood track or tree anything we miss.

Got boots on ground boys! Been to long. So far looks like a little snowy, but we will see how it goes.

Glassed up a handful this weekend. The tiny brown one took about a 4 hour nap on top of that rock behind him. A third chocolate had my interest but he was not in a very glassable location and I couldn't re-find him after moving. I got a good feeling about later this week.

These guys been in my farmland bait all day and chased off them when I checked at 530 after work. I’m headed home for a rifle and to go sit for the evening. Today is first day they have hit the bait

Well day one in the books feel like I have seen every animal montana has to offer...other than bears and wolves. Too many deer and elk to even count. Snow wasn't as bad as expected, going to head further west tomorrow. Get over the continental divide.

Seen two more grizzlies yesterday, happy to see them go up and over into MT. Starting to see some green up around 7,000ft this should help in seeing more

I’ve been hiking a pretty good amount on gated forest trails and pretty sure I bumped this guy a few weeks ago. I set up this trailcam nearby to where I bumped him and color and size seem similar. Been back a few more times tho and no trace. Next week my brothers, friends and I have bear camp for four days so will really get serious.

According to FB 6 years ago I shot this tank
Hey everyone, I am new to HuntTalk but have been reading forums over the past year or so. I just moved to Missoula from Georgia at the beginning of May and have been out hunting bears every day since I got here. I have found some scat and some older tracks on some public land outside of Missoula but have yet to see a bear. Could anyone offer some tips to help me out? I've been glassing South facing slopes, walking old logging roads, and just generally spending as much time in the woods as possible.

Just smother yourself in bacon and honey - they’ll find you!
Seriously, though, just keep at it. Good luck!

Sure he didn’t do it to himself after watching one too many episodes of Uncle Si?
