Bear Hunts
Rib Creek Outfitters' Baited Spring Black Bear hunt is truly as good as it gets. Our massive 3100 square mile area has a very strong Black Bear population. Each client will get 2 bear permits so if you’re looking for a beautiful color phase rug or massive pumpkin head bruin you have options. Hunting is done during the evening hours, giving you lots of time during the day to catch trophy sized walleye or go baiting with the guides.

Looking for a premier baited spring black bear hunt?
Rib Creek Outfitters offers an exceptional experience across our expansive 3,100 square mile hunting area, home to a thriving black bear population. Maximize your opportunity with two bear permits per client, giving you the flexibility to harvest a beautiful color-phase black bear rug or pursue a massive trophy black bear. While taking two bears is common, the challenge of bagging a truly giant bruin adds to the hunting experience.
