that is the way I hunted bears the entire time up there, look at also going out of Whittier.

If you find the right people they will drop you off and give you a zodiac to cruise around with. A lot cheaper than staying on the boat the entire time.

I am talking to the woman about going on one of these hunts for our honeymoon. So far she seems to be okay with it.  :IBCOOL:

  We did a DIY bear hunt on prince of whales Island. My wife youngest son and I.  We killed 3 bears. totally doable on your own. But having said that I would love to do a hunt off a boat to do some fishing as well. The nice thing about going on the boat you are getting places where others are not getting to. So chances on killing a bigger bear might be better off the boat. It is a fun hunt up there.

The Homer Ocean Charters is a great outfit.  My brother did a hunt with them about 6 years ago and a close friend did one this last spring.  Both had nothing but high praises for them.  If you want I can put you in touch with one of them for some first hand info.  Both of them were hunting traditional.  One suceeded and the other had several opportunities, just didn't connect.  There is also some time to do some fishing.

I saw that episode of Tred Barta doing a hunt like this.  Crabbing, fishing and hunting black bears.  That sound like a dream vacation to me.
