Going on a spot and stalk black bear hunt out West is one of my bucket list hunts.\u00a0 In this video, Paul Peterson from First Lite gets the coveted tag for a unit in Idaho and sets off on his first bear hunt.<\/p>\n
First Lite<\/a> is a designer and producer of elite camo technical garments geared towards hunters.\u00a0 We recently covered<\/a> why technical fabrics can be very beneficial to your hunting.\u00a0 The quality is excellent and they run quite a few sales every year.\u00a0 Their Western Big Game line would be the perfect thing to wear for this mountainous backcountry hunt in the Idaho Wilderness.<\/p>\n The current state of spring bear hunting in Canada appears to be a no go for Americans at this time who were planning a trip across the border.\u00a0 The border is still closed to non-essential travel due to the COVID-19 outbreak.<\/p>\n I would love to see a spring bear hunt in Michigan someday.\u00a0 With 12,000 black bears, the state (and specifically the UP) could definitely support it.<\/p>\n One of the interesting things about a spring bear hunt is that the size of a large bear for spring is much smaller than a large bear in the fall.\u00a0 This is due to the animals not having eaten while hibernating.\u00a0 \u00a0A good spring bear is around 300lbs while a good fall black bear is closed to 450-500lbs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Going on a spot and stalk black bear hunt out West is one of my bucket list hunts.\u00a0 In this video, Paul Peterson from First Lite gets the coveted tag for a unit in Idaho and sets off on his first bear hunt.
