Alaska Peninsula
Huge Coastal Brown Bears
Wolf and Wolverine
In May 2004 my 14 Hunters took 14 bears in 12 days.
In October 2005 my 14 Hunters took 12 bears.
In May 2006 my 14 Bear Hunters took 14 bears.
In October 2007 my 14 bear hunters took 10 bears.
In May 2008 my 14 Bear Hunters took 12 bears.
If you are looking for the best chance to take a giant Brown Bear, the Alaska Peninsula is the
place to hunt. We offer a 16 day spring Brown Bear hunt, (the entire season), on which you will
have a chance to take an 8’ bear or larger, or you will get another hunt at no charge. Since 1984
we have only had three hunters who did not have a chance to take a bear. You cannot beat this success anywhere.
The Area
Our exclusive bear hunting area is approximately 550 square miles in size, over 352,000 acres.
The area includes over 100 miles of coastline on the Pacific coast, across from Kodiak Island, 19 salmon streams, and the Dog Salmon River, on which our lodge is located.
The area supports an excellent bear population, with one of the highest cub survival rates
anywhere in Alaska. This is due from harvesting a high percentage of large boars. Large boars
kill and eat many cubs (53% statewide), before they reach 3 years old.
The area is so large that we utilize up to 12 spike camp locations to put you within walking
distance of the best hunting areas. These spike camps are accessed by super cub or riverboat,
and are located near good vantage points, where you will be able to glass valleys, streams and hillsides.
How to Get There
Fly directly from your home to Anchorage on the airlines of your choice. Here you will spend
the night and the next morning fly to King Salmon and continue on to Pilot Point, on Alaska
Airlines or Peninsula Airlines. You will be met at Pilot Point, and flown to our Dog Salmon River Lodge by chartering our designated flying service. You are responsible for this charter cost from
Pilot Point to the Lodge, which is $300.00 roundtrip.
The point of outfitting is when you arrive at the Lodge.

Bow Hunting for Brown Bears
Chuck Adams was my first bow hunter, who I personally guided in 1989 to the largest bodied
Brown Bear (1400#) ever taken by a bow hunter. Since then our bow hunting clients have taken
29 bears with a bow, on the Alaska Peninsula. Four of these bow hunts were filmed and are available on our videos. Many of these bears have made the top 20 in P&Y.
I only take 5 bow hunters for bear each fall season, and we only have a fall season on the odd numbered years.
