Here in Minnesota ,you can`t just buy a license in the good bear areas ,you do have to be lucky enough to draw a license. Minnesota has a lot of forest, wet swampy ,brush country areas very little open country where bears live so we have to bait our black bears. baiting bears is not that easy ,its alot of work hauling bait,bugs are bad and many times weather is wet too this time of year. Minnesota does have some big black bears but don`t think these bears are a push over you need to be sneaky and play the wind when you head to your tree stand.
