Before I started guiding, spring black bear hunts were some of my favorite hunts. Once I retired, I started hunting them again with my grandkids. My preferred area is the beautiful Prince William Sound. Nothing is more spectacular than a sunny day with gorgeous snow covered mountains dropping down to the blue ocean waters. My five grandkids that like hunting all share wonderful memories of that area. All five have harvested bears in the six-and half-foot class with my grandson Greg at the age of eleven taking the largest, a 7’1”.
