Hunt Sitka Blacktail on the vessel based transport hunt of a lifetime. Departing Kodiak Alaska every Thursday, mid October thru early December. We depart on seven day vessel based Sitka Blacktail Deer hunts across the entire Kodiak Archipeligo. The Kodiak Archipeligo is home to vast numbers of Sitka Blacktail deer, being aboard our floating base camp, which allows easy access to hundreds of miles of coastline not accessible by traditional drop-off hunting, or other operations that “homestead” the same hunting grounds year after year.
Vessel lodging, all meals, transport to shore for hunting. (This is a transport hunt so hunting is DIY)
This hunt can also be upgraded to a cast and blast by adding sea duck hunting and fishing.
The hunting portion is DIY, so does not include a guide for the hunting portion, license and tags are extra, gratuities
