I went hunting w/JerseyJim again this morning. 6:40 AM I saw a lone hen walking towards me. I got ready... then watched her... then watched her disappear? WTF?
Sure enough... two minutes later here comes a bear! It was awesome. I watched him walk towards me... I think he was looking at my decoys.
Then, he got a little too close 25 yards walking right at me. So I stood up and said "hey buddy." He turned and ran like hell. JerseyJim said it sounded like a tree falling.
Anyway... if he was walking away from me... or just passing thru... I would have just hung tight and watched him. However, I was directly in his path (near the decoys).
He was definitely over 200 pounds. No collar or anything.
