You may find 1 or 2 out that early but the majority of the bears, and definitely the bigger bears, will still be sound asleep.
Good luck to you this season!
Was gonna point that out, but then I'd be Maysayer. Biological fact is that bears have to activate their digestive system with green vegetative matter before they can handle the heavy duty stuff and there just isn't any yet. Having said that, the official word is there have been a few sleepy heads out and about, so a little spot and stalk might pay off.
