Huge.. Great job on the second bear!
We only have a fall season so critical to my baits is a nearby bedding area they are comfortable in.
Its warm here 1st of September when season opens so bears like to lay up in swampy very thick cover. They want some dry ground to sleep, but spend a lot of daytime in moist wet "wallows". I want those wallows to be opposite direction from where we come in, and I want solid heavy cover from wallows right to the bait.
After season or kill I go into those wallows and check them out thouroghly. Great learning experience going thru those brushy "tunnels" figuring out what the bears were doing and what happened overall.
