This outfitter now specializes exclusively, on big brown bear hunting along Alaska's Gulf Coast region. The streams in these areas receive heavy salmon runs, including all five pacific salmon species. The bears in these areas are as large as bears get anywhere in the world. Watching the largest carnivores on earth, aggressively hunting and catching salmon, often just 30 or 40 yards away, will get your blood pumping, and will not be forgotten easily. Hunting the great bears along these streams is very exciting in deed. A giant coastal brown bear is the ultimate trophy.
He has a U.S. Forest Service Priority Use Permit in the Chugach National Forest, Cordova Ranger District. Our outfitter has lived, hunted, and trapped in the Alaskan bush year-round for many years and scouted many areas. He has chosen the best areas that he has found to hunt in. These game management units along the coast are indeed prime brown bear habitat and have very high densities of bears and produce some very large trophies. Recently the Alaska Board of Game has been taking steps to deal with the higher brown bear populations in some of these areas!
During the last few years, the focus has been on the fall hunts when the brown bears are concentrated along the small salmon streams. Consequently, more bears are seen at very close range. In fact, our outfitter likes to hunt right on what he calls the "salmon holes", where the salmon congregate, and the big brown bears are actively fishing everyday. These coastal wet areas are lush, and rich in a diverse variety of wildlife.
Imagine sitting quietly under a dark spruce, watching a powerful brown bear explode into a charge ...running down a fleeing salmon ...just yards away!
Recently, the hunts have been in early fall, BEFORE THE BEARS CHANGE THEIR SUMMER FISHING HABITS, when there's still allot of daylight so the bears aren't quite as nocturnal, the weather is warmer, and there is often a few less storms.
This is important and often affects success !
Come and experience the enchantment of these majestic mountains, this remote wilderness where hunters can test their mettle and prowess, and the camaraderie of these brown bear hunts. There are very few people that see this Alaska, and there are some things only a brown bear hunter can experience. Hunting brown bears is like no other hunt on earth, and here you have a chance of harvesting a bear as big as they get.
It would be difficult to find another outfitter that is smaller volume or more dedicated. Our outfitter contracts and guides very few clients each year. You'll be impressed with his past record of opportunity to harvest these giant bears. Then compare that number to what most outfits usually do.
