[QUOTE="idelkslayer, post: 1040957, member: 62258"] I learned the lesson about not running out of bait a few seasons ago and I won't let it happen again. I had all but decided to let this spring go without bear hunting but then I got a phone call from a friend of mine that designed a new product and sent me one of the units to try out. I've had it for a couple weeks now and I played with it when I first got it but I've been waiting to post a review and talk about it until I get it set up. It is called the NightGuard2000. If you google it shows right up. It is an automatic door that mounts to the inside of a barrel that you can set to open and close anytime you want. The default setting is that it will open 1/2 hour before sunrise and close 1/2 after sunset. I programmed my local time into it and hooked up the battery and set it out on my back porch to watch it work. It's been out there for 2 weeks now and has continued to function through the -15 degree weather we've had so it passed the first test. This weekend I''l mount it in my barrel and kick it around a bit as a kind of torture test. The main idea behind it is that with the door closed at night it will solve the problem of night bears and help your bait last longer. My friend has been hunting with his prototypes for 2 or 3 years now with success. Besides that, I will look around for a new bait site that will allow me watch the bait from 100 yards away or more so I don't have to sit in a treestand. I'll stick to the same area and probably the same ridgeline but I would like to sit on the ground and not have to worry so much about my own movement. The mosquitos are so bad in my current spot that it is nearly impossible to sit still. [/QUOTE]
