Black Bear Hunts
Our regions of  Idaho offers some of the best bear hunting in the United States. This area features the unique occurrence of the 4 color variations of black bear. Our harvest for the last several years, has been close to 65% color phase bear. When blacks are chosen it is generally for large size or prominent "V" marking on the chest.  We hunt in Remote unit 7 and 10 and even have a 2 bear limit area!

Located in the lush Bitterroots our area boasts some of the most spectacular scenery to be found anywhere. The spring weather is generally mild with wet periods. Best of all for our bear hunters on stand - There are
NO BUGS. That's right, none of the plague of black flies you will find in the Canadian Provinces while spring hunting.

Both bait and hounds can be used during our spring season.  Hunters who seek a real Trophy opportunity choose our Hound Trophy Combination hunt.  This hunt offers the best chance for exactly the bear your after.  Our combo hunt  features a full day of hunting combining baited stand hunting and Hound pursuit hunting for the ultimate bear hunting experience.  Space for the trophy combo is very limited.  We urge hunters interested in this hunt to book early. 

We conduct our bear hunts in May and June, having started baiting in mid April, and also offer fall bear hunting in late September.  This establishes a feeding pattern and the best possible response from the bears.  For an enjoyable bear hunt in beautiful surroundings with real trophy opportunity, choose  a real bear outfitter, Joe Cabral has outfitted clients to over 1000 bears over the years for your next bear trip call Russell Pond & B bar C Outfitters.
