There is still 2 to 3 inches of snow covered most part at where we hunt up in 47.

We are waiting until later this year, burned a lot of fuel and time last year for poor results. Going to focus on setting up the stands and cutting shooting lanes for the time being.
It is to early yet , the wolfs will eat all , the bears not up yet ,
wait until the dandelion is out ...

I think so too but saw on a FB group somebody already started in 60 and and curious what's everybody been doing lately.Quote:

I did grab 2 cell cams for this season and will be putting them on our established bait sites. First sign of movement we will probably pound the bait to it.
Good point you are right ,
that time is tough to hunt but with better result
nothing before the last week of the bear season ...

Son and DIL went into the hunt camp in WMU50 with ATV's this past weekend. There's still 1' of snow in the bush in some spots,but,trails are open with lots and lots of water and mud. It was still dead quiet,there was a ton of Wolf/Coyote tracks,but,the Porkies were out and about. Ice is still on the ponds. No Moose,Deer or Bear tracks around anywhere. It seems it's early yet.
