Here we are! Winter is finally starting to wave through the rear view mirror and spring is coming in hot. Turkeys are starting to gobble, vegetation is greening up and the bears are coming out to play. It truly is one of my favorite times of the year. In this episode, we continue with the spring bear hunting season 2020. My brother and I head up for a few days to try our hand at finding a lurking spring bear. We head into an area that we’ve never been before and experience all sorts of weather.

As this is going on, so is the nasty covid-19 situation. This has caused my brother and I to not be able to hang out as much. A definite bummer and stressful time all around for many folks. Getting to go out in the field with him and spend some quality time was much needed for both of us.

Our buddy Eric Voris from Late to the Game Outdoors joins us briefly on this hunt. It was a pleasure getting to hang out with Eric and look for bears. Unfortunately, his jeep was on the fritz and he had to have a tow truck come and pick him up. This cut his day short with us. Hopefully, next time we all get to spend more time together out there.

If you caught the earlier episodes, I’m sure you saw that I set some trail cams out. Time to go check those bad boys! In the meantime, watch as my brother and I have a blast for a few days.
