Title: Black Bear Special in BC
Post by: bearcat_outfitters on February 22, 2013, 03:15:55 PM: If any one is interested in an action-packed bear hunt, we are offering a special this spring. We can put on a 7-day hunt for 2 guys at $2750/hunter. 'Government' fees in addition, and total about $800, depending on a few variables. We will be hunting by combination of spot-and-stalk and pursuit with hounds and you will have 2 guides on the trip. We have 100% success and historically get 25-40% color-phase bears. You can also harvest a second bear on the trip if you want for a trophy fee of $1500. Border crossing with firearms and meat/trophies is quite simple and straight-forward.
Take care for now,
Neil Findlay

Season runs April 1 - June 15, but 'peak' time is about May 10 - June 10.
Take care,

Post by: bearcat_outfitters on February 27, 2013, 10:04:40 PM: Yes - archers are common and certainly welcome. Always nice to try and get one with a bow by spot-and-stalk and I usually carry a rifle that I can hand off to the client if the stalk doesn't pan out for archery. Also, we use hounds a lot and makes for good, high-percentage kill shots with a bow.
