All our hunt locations are overactive baits.
Perfect for hunting big Canadian bears. Typically, your tree-stand will be a ladder made from the surrounding timber and kept in a good, safe condition and replaced as needed.
The seat is usually a metal frame with plywood chained and bolted to the tree. We will supply a cushion.
The sites are carefully chosen, have been previously baited, and are usually active with several bears.
We like to keep our baits right in the thick of things so to speak.
Large bears feel more comfortable with lots of cover. 10 to 30-yard shots are normal.
We use steel drums with oats and used cooking oil with that flavour and aroma that bears love so much to attract them.
This works excellently. The bears get this oil on their feet and spread it all through the area, thus advertising the bait for us. Our bait normally attracts the biggest Manitoban bears.
We use oats because they keep the bears at the bait. Some outfitters use large chunks of bait, which still works BUT… The bears can “grab and run, “ leaving the hunter little or no chance at the bear. NO! We try to keep our bears at the barrel working for their meal.
Our baits are usually about 2 miles apart. This helps to ensure that they are not all attracted to one location.
Once you have harvested your bear, you are urged to stay on your stand until your guide arrives. Contact can be made right away by phone or radio.
