Fletch's 2023 Black Bear Season....

[giles]

Jon has service ( must be 50 ft up the tree )... Nothing yet, but last hour is prime time
..

So 2 steps

 

[Fletch]

Jon texted me he had 2 small bears go by him... But they were very small...

Hopefully they connect and enjoy the nj bear experience. Are the hunting deer too?

Nice, hopefully some bigger ones show up.

 

[Isaacorps]

What a great trip!

 

[Buckmaster]

Bear don’t like Danny Butz?

 

[Fletch]

52 bears taken yesterday bringing the 2 day total to 157.... Hopefully today the boys will add one to that total. Dan showed interest in hunting a spot I showed them Sun. which is further North and West of where they are now...So I'll probably run up there today and refresh that bait... He's having a great time exploring the mountains and taking pics... Jamie if you want that big sheepshead and it can be frozen let me know and Dan can bring to Strouds....

 

[giles]

Ha! Jamie at an event?! If 2 people show up, that would be 2 to many for him. I could see him and Levi (stache's) being gone for days in the woods looking at fungus.

Yes on the deer question, however the deer density is low where they are at...

 

[Chancegriffis]

Any updates??

 

[Fletch]

Nothing seen today by either Dan or Jon... Trying new spots tomorrow.

generous offer, but totally impractical. let mother nature reclaim that one.
