Well I don't think it's been fully decided yet, but I'd be shocked if they allowed using dogs in the Bear hunt. (I'm sure you meant dogs for bear, not dogs for upland birds or waterfowl) In fact, I'm confident that they won't allow the use of bait either.
They are also setting the season way off into the the winter (Mid December) when most Bears will be in their dens already.
I don't completely understand the logic, but as I said, I don't think it's decided yet.
You know exactly what I mean. I don't see where there is any sport in turn a pack of hunting dogs loose to tree a bear, and then shoot it out of the tree. I hope you're not using those tactics in New Jersey.
I hunt Russian Boar, and feral pigs in South Texas, and I hunt on foot without dogs.
