Trent and Tyler catch up after a busy spring of bear hunting, including a week in Idaho with Mountain Ops featuring hounds, where four bears were taken but the guest only saw one and didn't shoot; they discuss surprising appreciation for dog hunting, bear overpopulation near home, and how terrain and low bear density can make spot-and-stalk unappealing. The guest recounts a dangerous incident where hounds tried to cross a raging Salmon River fork, leading him to rescue a nearly drowning dog and recover others via an old miners' cable bridge. The conversation shifts to outdoor media: audience metrics favor constant action, YouTube has become crowded, and live hunting "camps" are growing, often funded by attendee fees with sponsors providing product. They argue in-person events may be "future-proof" amid AI, note AI's risks without critical thinking, and describe an AI-driven product scam involving a knockoff Anchor Point bow holder. They also discuss hiring, execution vs ideas, and scaling a founder-led hunting brand.

In this latest installment in our mini-series, How To Be A Bear Hunter, we talk to Dante Zuniga-West about hunting pumpkin-headed monsters. We talk stillness, visualization and readiness, as well as Dante's favorite bear gun and loads. Dante came to hunting by way of prep school in Bel Air. He is a mild-mannered high school principal, the offspring of educators, he holds a master's degree from an art institute and he is the Backwoods Blaxican. He grew up searching out and reading hunting magazines then found his way into the Northwest. Now he lives on a farm in western Oregon and hunts bear and deer and grouse in the Coast Range. If you want to support free speech and good hunting content on the Information Superhighway, look for our coffee and books and wildlife forage blends at https://www.garylewisoutdoors.com/Shop/This episode is sponsored by West Coast Floats, of Philomath, Oregon, made in the USA since 1982 for steelhead and salmon fishermen.

Send us Fan MailA spring bear bait run can feel routine… until a sow comes in hard and closes the distance to two feet. We're joined by New Brunswick hunter, guide, and podcaster Wesley Thebeau for a wide-ranging talk that moves from traditional archery fundamentals to the real workload behind running a bear outfitting camp, plus the bird dog obsession that takes over every fall.Wesley explains how he got hooked on trad bow hunting, why “trad bow close” is a non-negotiable standard for many hunters, and how he sets baits to deliver true 10 to 15 yard shots. We dig into spring bear hunting strategy, tracking decisions, and why spring can outperform fall when natural food is everywhere. Then we get the backstory on March and Milco and how an unexpected partnership forms with NHL star Brad Marchand, including what it's like to watch a world-class athlete bring that same mindset to archery practice and camp life.From there we shift into upland hunting in New Brunswick, woodcock migration, thick clearcut cover, and what makes the region a legitimate destination for grouse and woodcock hunters. Wesley talks versatile hunting dogs like the Deutsch Drahthaar, why they demand year-round structure, and how fat biking groomed winter trails keeps both dogs and handlers ready. We round it out with wild game cooking, the carnivore diet discussion, and his push to improve the outdoor industry through United Guides and Outfitters of New Brunswick.If you enjoy spring bear hunting, traditional archery, bird dogs, woodcock hunting, and honest outfitting stories, hit subscribe, share this with a hunting buddy, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.Check us out on Facebook  Hunts On Outfitting, or myself Ken Marr.

Nathan Griffin [like his younger brother] is a lifelong houndsman, bear hunter, and commercial turkey farmer in Pendleton County, West Virginia. On this 2nd part of our in-the-field, ride along with Appalachian bear hunting brothers we open with a riveting reading from the memoir of an early-1800's backwoodsman about a bear skin umbrella & hunting with a knife. As we drive the snowy mountain roads in search of a fresh track, Nathan describes various aspects of being a modern houndsman: from dog-work to being a good example, selective harvest and seasons based around wildlife management. We hear about sleeping in the woods, finding den trees, and a wildcat encounter in a rock hole. Of course a major part of any hunt is the food it provides and thus we talk of bear roasts, pies, meat handling and uses for rendered bear fat. And that's just about when we find a track! The dog box is thrown open and the howling dogs are cut loose into the cold mountains. While they lose the track in melted snow, we end up bushwhacking a thousand feet down a ridge to a bear in a tree where Nathan's hounds have joined another hunting party's and Jacob [from Part I] successfully tags out on a beautiful he-bear. From the mountains to the farm workshop, we come together around the Griffin family hearing from both brothers, a wife & their father about butchering, cooking and this truly American folkway. Reading from Fourty-Four Years of the Life of a Hunter by Meshach Browning. Support Our Numinous Nature on Patreon.Follow Our Numinous Nature & my naturalist illustrations on InstagramCheck out my shop of shirts, prints, and books featuring my artContact: herbaceoushuman@gmail.com

Our jovial huntsman summarizes an exciting lifetime of dog injuries, harrowing bear encounters, and a pile of destroyed trucks. We hear how meaningful this Appalachian folkway & tradition is to the Griffin family, including how the old timers did it before modern GPS technology.  Moving on to felines, we discuss large cat tracks we've found and regional panther-lore. As we finally reach our remote starting point, Jacob tells a haunting story of a paranormal scream he heard in that exact location which opens up talk of finding long forgotten graveyards as well as eerie signs of people hiding out in this mountain fastness. Let the hunt begin!

On this edition of West Virginia Outdoors, Chris Lawrence tackles some of the most pressing wildlife issues facing the Mountain State. The show opens with a detailed breakdown of the 2025 EHD outbreak, including an excerpt from Ethan Barton, wildlife disease specialist with the West Virginia DNR, explaining why Mid Ohio Valley counties were hit hardest and why deer populations are expected to recover. Chris also addresses ongoing frustration over the delay in buck harvest numbers, while sharing newly released fall turkey harvest data that shows a significant statewide decline. Later, Colin Carpenter, the DNR's Bear Project Leader, joins the show to explain the growing impact of sarcoptic mange in black bears, how it spreads, what hunters and landowners are seeing, and why a new multi-state research project may finally provide long-term answers. A timely, information-heavy episode focused on science, transparency, and the future of West Virginia's wildlife.

Dan is also a very accomplished bear hunter and has had great success hunting bears in Minnesota and Wisconsin. We discuss bear baiting tactics, strategies on where to find bears, what types of baits and scents to use as well as what not to do. Takeaways Bear hunting requires a different mindset than deer hunting. Bait placement is critical for success in bear hunting. Understanding bear behavior can significantly improve hunting outcomes. Scent management is essential when setting up bait sites. Bears can smell bait from great distances, making scent a key factor. Patience is crucial; bears may not come in immediately after baiting. Using a variety of bait can attract different bears. Hunting pressure affects bear behavior and movement patterns. Tracking and monitoring bear activity with cameras is beneficial. The experience of bear hunting can be rewarding and exciting.
