I am the proud holder of a shiny new Multi Season Bear Tag on the San Juan unit in SE Utah!!! After 16 long years, i finally get to try and take a bear. Since its the multi season tag, i can almost hunt from the end of March through the 14th of November. Can’t wait to get cameras hung and start scouting bait locations. While my permit allows me to use dogs this spiring and again in the fall, i am hoping to take one with my bow over bait. I walked up on this bear in 2013 while muzzy deer hunting. He was feeding on a dead elk and i got within 40 yards of him. Hope the picture works.

Full body mount. Thankfully my taxidermist likes beef so we are doing a trade. I had 2 monster bears on my bait. But they knew my work schedule and only hit the bait while I was home. I passed a bunch of bears hoping for one of the big boars. The trail cam pics are amazing

> You can’t beat a trade like that, sounds like a win win situation for both of you, with the price of beef how days. Would love to see some of those tail cam pic, if you are willing to post them, especially the two monster bears you were talking about.
