We've got big Bears. Every season our Hunters take Black Bears over 7' (Skull measurements scoring 19.5 inches and over). Dave Herrmann's (pictured right) monster measured 7'5" (nose to tail) and took the Omineca Record, so far. That's 2.26 meters of Bear (in metric). Most of our Hunters take Blacks between 5 and 6½ feet.15% - 20% of our Black Bears are brown colour-phase, ranging from blonde to dark copper.
Whether hunting Black Bear in the Spring or in the Fall it's average to see about 5 Bears a day. In the Spring, we spot and stalk old logging cuts and bush trails where new dandelion and clover grow. In the early Fall, the Bears are drawn to the variety of berries that ripen on open hillsides.
Average Rifle shot distance: 100 yards, 20 yards for Bow. We have some very successful techniques for stalking up close. For several years now, our success rate for Black Bear has been over 100%. While on the Bear hunt, there's always the chance to come across Wolves. So getting a Wolf tag is a good idea. You can pre-book a second Bear or add a second Bear once you're here.
Grizzly numbers have been steadily increasing in recent years. They are most numerous in our territory in early Spring and late Fall, but we see and track them all season.
