Unit 23 Success!!!

[Josh86]

Well after 8 days in the bush we’ve made it back to the village. We’ve had an amazing trip with some world class hunting and fishing. Killed our two bulls in the first 3 days then our pilot moved us to a fishing spot. We saw somewhere around 4,000 caribou, caught hundreds of fish 2-15lbs and saw lots of grizzlies and foxes. The arctic char aka “Dolly Varden” fishing was the best fishing I’ve ever seen, we would sometimes go 5 cast in a row with fish over 5lbs. Everything we caught was on ultralights with 4lb line. It was everything we had hoped for and more. Can’t wait to get back home and tell the stories to our families.

Awesome caribou and fish pics, sounds like a great adventure! Nothing in North America like hunting caribou when the herds are moving through the area. Glad you guys had a great trip and COVID didn't ruin your Alaska hunt!

Nah I turned it loose I didn’t even know what it was when I caught it had to have another guy tell me it was a silver and it was rare for the river we were fishing.

Thanks, already working on a 2022 moose hunt. I'm officially hooked on Alaska.

I have the same problem, We were researching blacktail on Kodiak before leaving Kotzebue. There is nowhere like Alaska.

Looks like an incredible trip. Would you suggest going with Golden Eagle? Looking at going next fall and have seen lots of good reviews on them.

I would definitely recommend them we had no issues whatsoever. I’ve spoke to a lot of people who have used other flight services out of Kotz with lots of issues. You’ll be hard pressed to find negative reviews of golden eagle
