Shared a coulple good days off between guiding. I t has been a long time since i had hunted a bear for myself. First day out in one of my honey holes I tagged out on a 6'10 giant, even a beautiful dark chocolate boar.
Today we spent the afternoon fishing one of the world class lakes behind the ranch. 21 rainbows landed in 3 hours with another 20 or so lost. All caught on fly gear.
A pretty good couple of days off.

Nice bear and some good eating trout.

Dandy looking bear.....congrats!

Don't find one like that every day. Congrats.

Ya.....couple good days I'd say. Heck of a bruin.

I took the next day to look for a bear for my nephew. this would be his first big game animal. We found him an old boar with worn out teeth, not the biggest bear in the woods but a beauty for his first.
An action packed 3 days

What a toad ! How old ? Awesome fish pics too!

I would say judging by his teeth he was only 8-10 years old.

very nice bear!

Good looking bears.

Congrats to your nephew and you on your hunting success.

Beautiful bear, congratulations.

Nice one Doug!

That first bear has a big old melon. Well done.
