[QUOTE="86alaskan, post: 1317248, member: 75933"] To echo some of the previous responders, find the green fresh food and clearings. Don't expect to find them moving much if the weather gets too warm. I can verify that the bears will be eating a lot in the spring and aren't all that hard to get in close to. I've hunted a number of bears in the spring, but never took anything in the spring. You could hunt the fall as well and you can still hunt them in the same way. Fall bears taken late before their hibernation can have some of the thickest and nicest hides you'll find. The problem in the spring is you may have to sort through rubbed bears if you're picky about hide quality. I took 2 brown bears in Alaska by finding areas with ripe blue berries and a healthy bear population. It just takes a steady eye and some patience. [/QUOTE]
