How does an early spring affect your bear bait sites?

[broadfieldpoint]

In some places, an early spring can cause issues with the emergence of dandelions....seems like bait sites go blank for a week or so or longer.


Thoughts?

Never had that issue and Ive hunted bears 47 years all baited hunts.

I owned a bear outfitting business in northern manitoba for 7 years and started our hunts the may long weekend and had 100% shooting and 90%+ kill all 7 years and it was mainly bowhunters. Build a good bait they will come, hmmm that sounds familiar lol
