It includes ALL of Ontario that previously had fall Bear seasons...almost 90% of the province. :moose::thumbup:

...cool thanks.....seen a vid of Jeff Leal ...thought it was just for the wmu's that already were participating in the pilot....on for another 5 years

Just returned from a moose hunt in 47, no tags . saw 5 cows, not one calf. Expect bears had a lot to do with it . Good news, glad to see the spring hunt coming back. old 243

I wonder if they will shorten the fall bear season?

Even with the new rules, hanging baits only, baiting only 2 weeks before hunt starts etc., to come with an expanded bear hunt, I'm satisfied!!

not complaining, great for those wmu's that have it.
but would be nice to expand into some of the other areas

Did you read it? Its expanding to every WMU with a fall season. Effectively the whole province

they are asking for baiting input. not law yet,,, I will provide info soon in another post on a good reply to the EBR. I understand why they are asking for input but reality is,,, we don't need to add limitations for no reason. some could be good but some are unnecessary.

can someone put up a link to the EBR

See the thread below and note the post by MikePal. That would be Chris Lavoie's thread on New Rules. I'm not real good with cut and paste. LOL
