July 29th we land in Kodiak, July 30 day of Halibut fishing, July 31 fly into backcountry and setup camp. August 1 - 10 highcountry blacktails baby!!!

That's a super fun trip.   I hunted the Ayakulik River many years ago in September as we did a combo Coho salmon and Sitka hunting float.   Absolutely phenomenal trip.   Take lots of pictures and bring good bug headnets!

You should have a great trip. One of my favorite hunts is deer on Kodiak.Do not forget to take a fishing pole as a lot of the lakes are good fishing. Take a Sat phone you can rent them in Kodiak from Kodiak Kamps.  http://www.kodiakkamps.com

Good advice.   They also rent portable bear fences which we used multiple times while camping on Kodiak.   And they do work...we had a bear try to come into camp one evening while sleeping in our tents and heard it get lit up by the fence.  It pulled the little posts and wire down but sent it off the other direction and we were able to set it back up again in no time.  Definitely slept better with that little $80 investment.

Sounds like a great trip!   IF you happen to do this again....PLEASE get in on video!!     :D

That sounds like an awesome adventure!

What are you going to do with 100+ pounds of fish while you are hunting for the next 10 days?

Good luck,

Bisch

Thanks for the Kodiak kamps info. Ive heard if them but didnt know who they were

I have rented a phone and other gear from them before and was very happy with them. They will deliver the stuff you rent to your air service and pick it up there.
