Alaska brown bear hunt by boat yields good success on ABC Islands with lots of bear sightings |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
This boat-based hunt has yielded excellent success on brown bears along the coasts of the ABC Islands in Alaska. Hunter success is 100% almost every year, and that's because there are so many bears in this area. One of our customers shot the 59th bear he saw. Most hunters shoot animals between 8 and 9 feet. The average both fall and spring has been about 8'4" over the years. Though 10-footers have come from this hunt, including three of them from 2003 through 2005, it's not realistic to expect a bear that big.
One left on the last hunt and one on the first hunt. April 28-May 4 is the first hunt. Last hunt is May 14 through May 20. Fall '08 is totally open, Sept. 15 for seven days.Sept. 15-22, one hunt a year, because the bears start to disappear after that. You normally must book this hunt well in advance. A 25% deposit is required with another 25% due Jan. 1 of the year you'll be hunting.
