Black Bear Hunting Tips

• Never head into the bush without a good black fly bug paint and netting.
• Bait and lure hunting works well in the untouched wilderness.
• A game monitor located near the burns or lures will indicate whether the lure is being hit.
• The best burn is made with bacon and honey. They create a sweet smoke that penetrates deep into the woods.
• Never use new equipment when black bear hunting in Canada. Boots, treestands, and packs must be comfortable.
• Remain quiet, still, and scent free.
• Never travel without a compass and topographical map.
• Tie a string tracker to the lure and unravel it while following a bear. It saves disorientation when heading back to camp.
