Hunting

Hunts take place on Kodiak Island and the Alaska Peninsula. We are the exclusive concessioner of the renowned Moraine Area within Katmai National Preserve, and have exclusive concessions on privately owned, native corporation lands. We work very hard to find hunting areas that are uncrowded and provide excellent wilderness, fair chase hunting experiences for our clients. Hunts are available for brown bear, black bear, caribou, moose, sitka blacktail deer, mountain goat and roosvelt elk. Our combination hunts and hunting- fishing combos on Kodiak Island are truly a sportsman's dream. Please call, write or email us to see how we can provide you with the experience you are looking for!

Stream fishing trips include fly out fishing for rainbow trout, dolly varden, steelhead and all five species of

pacific salmon at our Karluk River camp. We also have great saltwater fishing for halibut, salmon, ling cod and rockfish aboard the 38 ft. Moon Shadow and the 43 ft. U Rascal. Wildlife viewing trips for Kodiak brown bears, whales and a wide variety of sea mammals, birds and land mammals are available for both wildlife enthusiasts and photographers.
