2011 DIY Alaskan moose hunt

[Carrion Carrier]

Very cool!

Did Ernesto offer any advice?(give up a secret spot)? What's your next adventure?

Ernesto offered us some great advise and really helped us a lot. We left the antlers at his place til we can split them and ship them down here. Nope... no secret spots. Oh yeah... we got to meet that famous Indian Larry guy too. Good people...

I picked the spot myself and was told by other moose hunters that seeing 6-8 mature bulls in 11 days was a good moose hunt. My next adventure will be finishing off my moose hunt or going back to Kodiak for deer and caribou... we'll see. Jason and I did the honorable thing and volunteered on the overbooked flight home and were compensated with a free trip back up to the last frontier... and we still got home at the same time because of our layover in Seattle. Just trying to do our part... Ed F

WOW! Very nice! One day - I'll give a go for moose. I have a long way to go on elk - edumacation wise... so when I get to a decent level, I'll give it some real thunkin!

Grats - and great write up! Enjoyable read!

 

[Wyodeerhunter]

Very nice write up Ed. It was great meeting Jason and you. Two dedicated hunters for sure!

Free flight? One doesn't need a reason to come to AK but a free flight should seal the deal!

Good luck on rest of your hunts this year!

Ernesto

Thanks for the writeup and photos, Ed. Sounds like a great hunt, and best of all, you have an excuse to go back.

Congrats on a great bull. I'm seriously thinking of doing a trip like this in the near future. Anyone want to go?

When do we leave?

Caribou on Kodiak? Never heard of such a thing...
I'd stick to the moose you seem to be pretty good at it. Congrats to you and your partner on a great hunt!!!

 

[huntfishcamp]

[BOWUNTR]

Yeah... bad idea... Kodiak doesn't have any caribou... TB does the location look familiar to you?? Ed F

Awsome hunt and story, thanks for the ride

Very cool hunt, thanks for the story. Really makes it look pretty accessible for someone to do by themselves
