Good Hunt
My trip with guide Jeff Welck was good.Jeff and his son Dillon were very helpfuul before the hunt letting me know what to expect and what to bring.They had someone to pick me up at Kodiak take me to fish and game and to Macks to get my tags.Once at camp I was shown to my room which was at the main house. It has a shower with hot water and a wood stove(lots better than a tent).Each morning started with jeff cooking breakfast and then a short boat ride to where we were hunting.The area looked good but the bears were not moving much.We saw bear on 3 days but it was to late in the day to make a stalk each time.There was no snow and temps were warmer than normal.They just were not moving.Jeff is a good guy he never stopped trying to find me a bear.He is also a very good cook.We had fresh crab and fish for dinner several nights.Welch provides a best of both worlds hunt,you have a place to dry your cloths,get a hot shower and enjoy a good meal.It may be a bit rustic,but you have everything you need. When I returned to fish and game they said the kill was down 50% at that time.

New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
British Columbia Hunting Information
British Columbia is an excellent hunting destination that offers a wide variety of game species. Vast wilderness areas and pristine coastlines provide world class adventure hunting for those seeking that trip of a lifetime. BC is arguably best known for big coastal black bears, Canada moose, grizzly bear, mountain lion, Dall sheep and Stone sheep. Hunters can book a hunt with an outfitter and avoid the license drawing process common in most U.S. states.
Manitoba Hunting Information
Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
