[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1464371, member: 313"] I've hunted bears over bait for many years. It seems that there are many successful ways to bait them and the choice of bait probably varies based on availability and cost. More often then not, I use an outfitter that only uses meat scraps/fat. He baits all year around. Meat is put in shallow holes and covered with dirt to keep the flys away in the summer. Pails of grease are used in the winter. But come hunting season, only meat scraps are used. The are put in a half barrel with a metal grate on top and a heavy rock is placed on the grate. This prevents everything but the bears from taking the meat. Sweets are great if you like watching squirrels and other small mammals diving in and out of the buckets all day. [/QUOTE]
