Bee. I’m hunting near Idaho City. Today’s my last day. Shot a bear this morning but lost the blood. Talking with someone who runs a blood trailing dog out of Boise. He’s supposed to get back with me. Fingers crossed. Hope he can come and hope it doesn’t rain.
Good luck to you! let us know how it goes. 2 of the 4 bears we killed this season didn't have any bloodtrail the first 25ish yards after being shot, fortunately both of them were piled up at 30 yards. The other 2 we watched go down in sight. Next year I plan on hunting them with my bow, I'm interested to see how the tracking goes with an arrow through them.Bee. I’m hunting near Idaho City.

Been baiting for some friends coming out of state. Saturday had a bear go up the tree I was trying to bait under. It was pretty pissy, snapping teeth, woofing etc...so I backed out and came back to the same thing. I had left the bait and thought maybe it could see it and that's why it wouldn't come down. I packed it out a ways and waited some more only to have the same result. Now I'm thinking I had my bow in my rig and a target cause I hadn't shot broad heads yet. So I ran back took a couple shots and ran back up only to find a pissed bear still mad at me. So I made it safe to put out bait!
