well it is that time for Pipepusher to start planning for bear. 2 stink buckets were started this week. They will have 8 weeks to cook. There is still lots of snow in the woods.

Pipepusher has made a new barrel designed for big bears only and retrofitted an earlier shooter model into a roller/shaker barrel. The plan is to have 3 sites. 2 close --the other 2 hours away.
site 1---- is a shooter site, I will be trying to eliminate the 1 thru 3 year olds.
site 2--- is a big bear site, I will be trying to eliminate the 1 thru 6 year olds.
site 3 --- will be the shaker, designed to make the bait last longer, saving long baiting trips and giving the site enough time for a boss bear to find and dominate it.
2 weeks now till the opener, I'll be going on my 6th training hike this spring on April 1st. Then this weekend I'll be checking the snow pack elevation.
