[QUOTE="Rancocas, post: 5141562, member: 2871"] I don't know about the northern part, but here in the Cherokee National Forest south the Smokies bear (and hog) hunting pretty much requires a pack of hounds. No baiting is allowed. If you don't have the dogs, and are not part of a hunt club with dogs or have acquaintances with dogs who invite you along on the hunt then you have about as much chance of getting a bear as a katydid has of surviving a fall into a fire ant nest. One option you might have is to find a gap in a ridge that has a well used game trail crossing through it. Take a stand there and wait and see what other people's hounds might push through the gap. Of course, taking a bear in front of someone else's dogs is not going to gain you any favors! [/QUOTE]
