I've said it before and I'll say it again... Jersey has some of the biggest black bears in the world... I'm lucky to be living in prime bear habitat and know a lot of spots that hold bears... The piece Jon and Dan will be hunting is so thick with undergrowth that it is bear heaven... Couple this with having farm land close by, after the crops are removed they move in there... And it's known to hold some 400 lb. + bears... I expect one of them to harvest another bear there this year... I'm not going to jinx them and say both will score...With Dan making the trip in July to put a stand up and scout I'm sure they will have another trip that they will talk about long after I'm gone... Hey... Where the hell else can you go and hunt this quantity and quality bears for $137.00 ????I am amazed at the quantity and quality of bears you have
Looks like you are going to have a great season!!
Thanks for sharing.... Yes the bears are on the move, out looking for love.... A male can put on a lot of miles looking for love.... Once again both my bear cam and mineral lick cam were dead overnight and this morning... Since the bears cleaned up every morsel of food I expect pics to go down to nothing....I'm gonna put this here rather than make a thread. Tis the season the bears are out & about. Last week, there was a bear west of us in Pataskala & also in Zanesville. Another just popped up ... or maybe the same one .... today ....

Believe me.... You don't want them....We had bears across from the house 3yrs ago ....just east of Newark. Neighbor & wife saw them. My cams were not out yet then. Since then, I have left some cams out year round ....I'm ready ...lol
