Other Activities...Non-hunters of all ages will enjoy accompanying the hunter, as there is a wealth of things to do and enjoy. Clam digging, octopus hunts, hiking, visits to archaeological sites, photography and wildlife watching are but a few.
Sitka Blacktail...Deer are plentiful and can be hunted from a cabin cruiser or sea skiff, as they come down from the rugged country to feed along the shore. The hunter can take up to four deer, and the chances of a trophy-quality buck are excellent. Deer can be hunted simultaneously with bear and elk at no additional cost except the tags. The season runs from August 1 to December 31. Guided and unguided hunts are available. You can fly and hunt the same day for deer.
Roosevelt Elk...The Roosevelt elk are found in substantial numbers here, in herds of 40-100 animals. There are three hunt periods: Oct. 10-19, Oct. 17-26, and Oct. 22-31. Permits are issued by drawing, and applications must be completed and in the outfitter's possession by May 20. Guided or unguided hunts are available, with all lodging, meals and boat transportation included in both types of hunts. A 6-day hunt is recommended. If you are unsuccessful in the drawing for elk, the option exists for a special Registration Hunt between November 5 and 25, based upon the actual harvest of the drawing permit hunts.
License & Tag Fees...
 Only 1 or 2 hunters are taken per hunt, and all are guided 1x1. Reservations for Spring hunts must be made no later than November 15th of the previous year (with results being published by the Alaska Dept. of Fish & Game in early January) AND, for the Fall hunts, reservations must be in no later than May 15th of the hunt year with results being published in early July. It is highly advised to precede these deadlines by at least a couple of weeks. By law, you may not fly in to an area and then hunt for bear or elk on the same day, so plan to arrive at least one day prior to your first hunting day.
Fishing...Incredible freshwater and saltwater fishing is available throughout the summer / fall months and all gear is provided. Salmon fishing for Red (Sockeye) Salmon is best from mid-June to mid-July; for Silver (Coho) Salmon from late July until mid-September; and for Pink (Humpback) Salmon from late July through August. Rainbow, steelhead, lake and Dolly Varden trout are abundant. The outfitter will supply saltwater gear for huge halibut. Ling-cod, sea bass, flounder, yellow-eye, greenling, crab, shrimp and clams are common throughout the year. You can eat your catch in style at the lodge.
Waterfowl...For the ardent waterfowl hunter, several of the colorful and hard-to-find sea duck species are found here. Waterfowling can be combined with any fall hunt at no additional cost except the state/federal duck-stamps. The prevalent species found there are: Green-winged Teal, Merganser, Harlequin, Golden Eye (both Common and Barrow's), Buffelhead, Mallard, Scoter (Common, Surf, and White wing), King Eider, Old Squaw, plus a smattering of others. No permit is required. The outfitter has the State Duck Stamps for purchase, but the Federal Stamp must be purchased before leaving Kodiak.
Bush Flights...Out of Kodiak, there are various float and amphibious aircraft available. The reservations will be made for our clients after we know you arrival schedule in Kodiak. All attempts will be made to coordinate flights in order that clients may share expenses and to make the best connections. Additionally, hotel reservations can be made (at a savings to you!) whenever you have to stay overnight in Kodiak. The round-trip 3-passenger chartered float-plane costs are normally $650 for unguided hunters. Deposits & Terms...Deposit of 50% of the lodge fees plus 100% of the hunting license and tag fees must be paid to secure your hunt.
