KH Charters, Inc. is a provider of awesome Alaska black bear hunts, and we offer full service packages tailored to your needs. Our black bear hunts are based on two seasons, SPRING BLACK BEAR (mid April thru May) and our CAST & BLAST which offers Sitka Black Tail Deer/Black Bear and fishing (mid August thru mid September) All black bear hunts can be either fully guided or unguided, depending on your experience. We are a licensed salt water Alaska guide service and offer black bear transporter services.

TRANSPORTER SERVICE

Our responsibility as a transporter is to provide you and your guest water transportation to and from the black bear hunting areas of your choice, which also allows you to "Spot and Stalk" along the way. You choose the site. Of the hundreds of miles of Alaskan shoreline and boundless islands, there are plenty of opportunities to choose from. You are responsible for harvesting, field dressing and skinning your Alaskan Black Bear. Once you complete your black bear hunt, we can assist in the transportation of your game back to your home.

TRIP LENGTH AND COST

All black bear hunting packages are based on six days of hunting. You arrive on Sunday, hunt for six days and leave the following Sunday. Fishing trips may be combined with hunting excursions should you limit out early.

YOUR HUNT

Spring black bears are typically dominate males which are easily found on the shorelines of the islands. It is not uncommon to see 10-20 black bears in an afternoon of hunting. We usually like to depend on the low tides to draw the bears further out on the beach and hunt mostly from noon until dusk. If you want a bear rug, these are the ones to get. Late summer bears, though bigger, typically are scarred up from fighting. We try to average over 7' for our black bears making the skull around 20" plus. Average weights are above 350 pounds. More information can be found here at the State of Alaska website.

WHAT TO BRING

Soft bags less than 40 pounds work the best with the float planes. Your hunting attire should include a warm jacket and socks, water proof boots, good rain gear, etc. You will have access to laundry facilities, so don't duplicate a lot of clothes. Layered shirts and sweaters (like wool) also work well. We recommend no smaller than a .30 caliber gun (belted magnum) or a similar weapon of your choice. You should be proficient with your weapon for the accuracy you intend to shoot at. Most rifle hunting requires shots that are less than 150 yards. Remember, we are in the heart of the Tongass National Rain Forest and average 140" of rain per year.
