Your right about no pressure being great but looking for bigger blocks and a willing to work harder can still get you back and away from 90+% of other guys I think. A number of my baits are a 1-1.25mi in and last year a couple of those spots pick up with action once season opend and I think that was do to the action of people in and out up front. The sad thing is there is a ton of public land in C and if guys would do a little work to where it all is there is no reason to be on top of one another but again that would take a little effort.

For sure. I've revealed my pack distance to a couple local guides and they all think I'm nuts. Too much time, too much energy, how are you going to get that bear out. Well the last one we'll think about later.

Thats funny same here. Have even ran into DNR workers a ways back clearing trees off the lane and they thought I was crazy...granted they may not be wrong. Im not worried about getting a bear out as I have that part figured out. Just depends on the size of bear how hard I will have to work and how late I will be out in the woods.

My oldest son (4) was out of daycare this afternoon with a stomach bug so I ended up filling out the rest of my work day from the kitchen table while he toughed it out on the couch. Afterwards I asked him if there was anything he wanted to do to make him feel better. He said: "Lets look for bears!" So we did!
So we hopped in the truck and hit up a spot I've been meaning to bait for quite some time...a small point that extends into a thick creek bottom filled with berries. The bear sign was good. Lots of poop and tracks. I think we'll have to re-locate the hill country stump this weekend...
