Summary

I love talking about spring bear hunting, and who better to chat with than my very own Father and partner in crime, Rod Staton.  My dad and I have been doing public land spring bear hunting in Idaho since 2007.  We've learned so much together and had some incredible adventures along the way.  Today, we tackle some listener questions on spring bear hunting, topics like where to find bears, how to glass for bears, baiting techniques, and the best times to hit the mountain.    ElkShape Camp Registration LINK ELKSHAPE Offers:  ELK 101 UNIVERSITY OF ELK HUNTING | DISCOUNT CODE ELKSHAPE FOR 20% OFF FNX SUPPLEMENTS | DISCOUNT CODE ELKSHAPE FOR 15% OFF SIBERIAN COOLERS | DISCOUNT CODE ELKSHAPE2019 FOR 10% OFF Learn more about your ad choices.
