Hi Guys,
I've always been a target shooter with a bit of action shooting, meaning I've never hunted or carried out in the wilds. So I need some schooling from you guys.
I haven't fished in years but am heading out for some wilderness fly fishing soon. In my fishing past I've come across heavy bear sign to the point where your head is swiveling so much looking for bears you can barely concentrate on fishing.
I have a bird head grip 14" Canuck, and am wondering on the legality of having it loaded in a backpack, just in case. Basically the grip would be sticking out of the top and it would only be for emergency-no hunting. I'll be in remote enough areas, but may encounter other people also (we all know how some people can get). Where are the sticking points with this? Southwest Alberta if that makes any difference.
I've got bear spray too, but I'm not that excited about seasoning myself for a bear's supper...![]()
