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.
