Hunting Guide For Grizzly Hunts In Alaska

Hunting Guide For Grizzly Hunts In Alaska

by Megan Landry

Grizzly hunts in Alaska are right at the top of the list of popular trophy hunting adventures in North America. Considering that a full 98 percent of all U. S. Brown bears are to be found in Alaska, it is obviously the best state for a bear hunt. Grizzlies are the ones in the northern part of the state and those that are found inland.

Before getting down to the best locations and other details for a guided hunt, it might be helpful to take a brief look at the hunting regulations. The basic requirements for non-residents include getting a license and a $25 locking tag. The tags cannot be transferred to others, and must be locked on to the hide right after the kill.

The tag stays in place as long as the hide is being processed, or until it is exported. Hunters are allowed to use motor vehicles while locating bears, but not subsequently to chase fleeing bears or herd them towards other hunters. All kills involving grizzlies/brown bears have to be reported to a sealing officer inside of a month, and some evidence of the kill must be presented for identification.

Non-resident hunters and travelers looking to bag grizzlies and brown bears do not need to worry too much about these and other regulations, since they are not allowed to go on unguided hunting expeditions in the first place. Simply get in touch with a company that provides expert guides to take people on guided <A href="http://amblerandkobukrivercharters.com">grizzly hunts in Alaska</A>. This also solves the problem of paperwork, where to stay, meals, transportation, and the all important matter of finding grizzlies.

Some of these companies put up guests in a luxury hunting lodge. Hunters can use the lodge as a base for multiple expeditions to bag brown bears and grizzlies, black bears, moose, caribou and wolf. The freshwater fishing is just as good, and any spare time can be spent angling at any of the thousands of spots on ponds, streams, lakes and rivers.

The guides leading these trips will ensure that guests get to experience the thrill of hunting safely and in full compliance of regulations. It does not mean that hunters should be blissfully ignorant. It's actually quite useful to know about bag limits, hunting units and seasons and other things that will be helpful when it comes to choosing the right guide and location.

Kodiak, for example, is a part of Unit 8 where hunters have a bag limit of one bear in four regulatory years. It's also illegal to shoot cubs and the female with the cubs. Denali State Park, on the other hand, includes Unit 13-E which has a bag limit of one bear per regulatory year. Other hunting spots, such as Unit 17 near Anchorage, allow two bears/regulatory year.

It goes without saying that a higher bag limit is offered only in places where the bear population is bigger. This in turn makes it easier to locate grizzlies and focus on the adrenaline rush of the kill, instead of spending a large part of the trip scouting the area in planes, outboards and snowmobiles. Even expert hunters find the going tough in the frozen tundra and the mountains, and grizzly hunts in Alaska will be a lot more successful if informed decisions are taken beforehand.
