What is up everybody spring is in the air and to celebrate that we've got a

10-minute talk series on spring bears coming at you right now

I think we're gonna do approximately three segments so saddle up listen and we've got Ryan Lampers sitting across from us virtually right now

The spring bear master himself. He's on it spring bears early. He's on it spring bears late multiple states

He knows a lot about these critters. So let's just jump right in because we only have 10 minutes ish

Gem so great open love the energy. I did I'm jacked up

It's not I've had a lot of coffee. So Ryan. I think I think the first topic we're gonna tackle here

And it's a good one. Where do I find these damn things? That is a good one

That's a that's a pretty common question getting asked a lot these days. There's there's so many new

I think upcoming hunters that have seen this spring bear thing is

Just kind of a way to add to their season, you know

So I've noticed a lot a new I don't know if it's recruitment, but a lot and new guys coming into

Bear hunting so where to find them number one question, I think and

I have to preface this answer by first

Where I find them and where you know every state is a little bit different. So generally speaking

I'm talking about these Rocky Mountain states the Montana's the Idaho. I've spent a lot of time in Washington as well

That could be extremely different from guys that are chasing spring bears and in other states further south or whatever

East so

Yeah, some of the key features that I'm looking for as I've been doing a lot of east scouting as of late

You know bear hunting's a crud ton of fun, but it's also, you know

You could end up going back to the general area that you've hunted in the past

Problem is hopefully you've already taken that old giant monster from the year before and you want to find another
