Alaska Brown Bear Hunt
While Alaska Brown Bear Hunting with Alaska Elite Hunting in the Bristol Bay area, we will utilize various hunting methods to harvest Alaska Brown Bears. For example, Alaska Brown Bears love scavenging on winter kill moose and caribou carcasses in the Springtime after ice-out. As a result of this, it is an excellent opportunity for hunting them over winter to kill moose & caribou. In addition to this, our May Brown Bear hunting packages coincide with the Alaska Moose calving season.
Alaska Brown Bears can be found out looking for their favorite meal during the spring hunt at any time of the day. Besides hunting moose carcasses, spot & stalk hunting, floating the river where they travel, we also utilize several calling methods to bring big bears in close. In the Springtime, Bears are fresh out of the den and hungry. We also utilize vantage points for spot and stalk hunts as these bears more from denning areas to the river drainage.
Hunting by jet boat, we travel up and down the river corridors and, as a result of this, cover a vast area. By doing this, we increase our chances of running across bears themselves, moose carcasses, or where the bears are feeding & hunting moose calves and beaver along the banks.
