Black Bear

Hunt BL247

SOUTHEAST ALASKA COASTAL BLACK BEAR
AVERAGE AN AMAZING 7-FOOT
This outfitter meets his hunters in Ketchikan, only a 90 minute flight from Seattle, and transports them by boat to camp. Out of this land-based camp you will hunt the bays and estuaries in southeast Alaska in the early part of the season.  Guide and hunter move around in a 14-foot Lund boat looking for bears.  Later in the season many bears move back into the bush making beach hunting less productive and hunters have the option of hunting over pre-set bait stations.  Success generally runs 95% on this 5-day 2x1 hunt priced at $4,850 and the average bear taken has squared an amazing 7-foot or better with skulls in the 20-inch range.  He usually starts about April 22 and runs to about June 15.  Non-resident license is $85 and bear tag is $225. Arrive in Ketchikan on Friday, hunt Saturday to Wednesday and leave camp back to Ketchikan on Thursday, home on Friday.
