California Black Bear Conservation Plan
"CDFW would rely on findings from these analyses 1341 and assessments to inform any recommendations to the Fish and Game Commission1342 (“Commission”) about regulatory changes including (but not limited to) hunting levels, 1343 methods, and seasons." That verbiage gives me hope that they... -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
The fall season currently runs from mid-August until the end of the year. If you're hunting multiple states, I can definitely see how that could make things difficult. Being in NV makes it a lot easier than most.. -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
That's all we need, another predator and no way to manage them. -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
It's funny that you say that because I said the exact same thing on an instagram post last week from Black Bear Pursuit. I heard input from others and thought that it might be reasonable to roll it out in sections. Start one year with a spring season, then if the quota doesn't get met, do the... -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
That's a bummer. The verbiage that it has may be beneficial if CDFW recommends a dog season for conservation when they bring it up to the commission. That being said, the spring season and an additional tag is looking promising though. . -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
It doesn't really matter who you are. By spreading negativity and saying it'll never happen, fosters more people of the same mindset. I don't even want dogs to happen, but I think it's necessary for proper management of the species. Saying something is never going to happen is quitting before... -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
Oh, I found more on it! It is a bill, but they can authorize a tag.. This is straight from the bill text. "The bill would authorize the Fish and Game Commission to establish a hound tag program, imposing prescribed requirements on the licensure and use of hounds, as defined, to pursue... -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
I stand corrected. I thought that the one in 2020 was an attempt to make it a bill. We just need to band together and show facts and not work on emotions for us to overturn it. -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
From my understanding, it is a regulation in FGC (Title 14, sub 265) and not a law. They wanted it to be a law but it got nowhere. Right now, our commission is pro-hunting and they're seeing all of these anti-hunting extremists and what they're fighting for is not good for the populations of... -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
An idea that was brought up that I really liked was having a Spring Archery/Rifle season, Fall Archery/Rifle season and then having a late Fall-end of year dog season. That way we don't have dogs running around during deer season pissing everyone off. -
California Black Bear Conservation Plan
Here's the Management plan draft that was just released for California. https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentID=222075&inline The population of black bear when the last management plan was released in 1998 was around 15,000 bears. Now the estimation is between 50,000-81,000. That's... -
California B Zone Wilderness Blacktail
Get away from trailhead and bushwack and you'll see more critters. If it's harder/more of a PITA to get to, you're less likely to see people.- N9Line

Black Bear hunting resources
I've learned a lot from taking a little bit from this source or a little bit from that source. The YouTube hunters (Samong Outdoors, Brian Call, Ryan Lampers, Caccia Outdoors) give a great perspective on how to get it done. I've yet to tag a bear, but I've had more than 10 opportunities that in... -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
This is BLM without public access.. And I've only seen 1 person on game cam and it was the land owner who gave me access. -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
With a baby due any day now, the season has come to a close for me. I really do appreciate the insight and help on learning. After 6 months of game camera footage, I can't make any sort of consistency of their pattern and it makes me feel much better hearing that others are in the same boat... -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
I checked back a few times after and there were still fresh beds, but I never found the deer in the beds. Cool, I quit early. We live and we learn. -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
I've been told by more than 1 person that if I bump a deer out of a bed, they'll never bed there again. The risk of taking a step in thickest pine needles/twigs you've most likely ever seen and not making noise is not worth bumping all those deer. Knowing they're there and not being able to get... -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
So this past weekend, I went out on Saturday morning. I get out there around 4am and it was POURING. I sat at the trailhead in my truck waiting for a bit of light and hopefully for the rain to subside around 5am like it said it would. It didn't. I fell asleep until about 6 when a deer crashing... -
CA Late Season Bear Hunt
Although this is a "trail", it's not used by anyone but me.. And I'm only on it to set cams and pull them. I'm worried of putting my scent all over everything, so I don't like going out there too often. There's still tons of acorns and there's video of one of the bears eating them, so I know...
