Mike Adey runs a quality outfit for Manitoba Black Bear over bait. He and his guides (Darrel and Bill) will go farther (literally) than anyone else to recover your trophy. Once you harvest your bear, all you have to do is sit back, relax and fish for walleye, northerns, mooneye, and sturgeon in the lake (which is right outside your door). The cabins that you'll be staying in are anywhere from 15 minutes to a half-hour from the bait-sites and the stands and sites are very well maintained. Bow and gun-hunters are welcome but, because Mike is a bow-hunter himself, bow hunters will be especially pleased with the set up. The food isn't extravagant (nor should it be) but it is filling, hot, and tasty. You do stand a chance of seeing and taking a serious trophy bear here (#1 P&Y Bear in 2010) as well as a color-phase. Mike is a welcoming host who really goes all-out to make sure that his hunters are successful before and after the shot. Highly recommended! Once you harvest your bear, all you have to do is sit back, relax and fish for walleye, northerns, mooneye, and sturgeon in the lake (which is right outside your door). |
