Alberta Black Bear Hunting Trips

The significant allure of an Alberta black bear hunt lies in the opportunity to harvest two bears within the week, coupled with a highly plausible prospect of encountering bears of diverse color phases. We work with a number of Alberta black bear hunting outfitters. Which one we suggest for you is determined by your trophy expectations, what you would like for lodging and accomodations on your hunt and your budget.

Lodge-based, spring alberta black bear huntS over bait

These are solid, quality black bear hunt over bait with a two bear limit.

Hunting Lodge #1: This two-bear Alberta hunt package offers an all-inclusive 6 day hunt. In addition to bear you can hunt wolves and go fishing. You’ll be hunting a huge area, and should see several bears during your hunt. The lodging accommodations are either a hunting lodge or a large house.

Hunting Lodge #2: Spring Alberta black bear hunts take place over bait in May and June. They use dozens of cellular trail cameras in their exclusive area bordering a massive military flying range that is all perfect habitat. They also take several fall bear hunts throughout September and October during their moose hunts. Bears are heavier this time of year, with shorter but very thick coats.

You’ll stay in a modern, hand-hewn log lodge, light-housekeeping cabins, or one of their suites. Whichever you choose, it will provide luxury in a pristine wilderness setting.

This trophy Alberta bear hunting trip is one of our most unique.

Hunting camp is located about an hour and a half from the Fort McMurray International Airport. The Northern Alberta Foothills region has built solid reputation. This area has a high black bear population and produces LOTS of World Class trophy boars.

The hunting territory is exclusive to the outfitter. Residents do not have access to hunt.

After over 15 years of outstanding management, the camp is consistently producing 95% book record boars. On a typical hunt, you can expect to see about 6 to 10 bears a day, over 40 bear a week, and harvest a 7-footer with an 18 inch skull if they follow their guide’s direction. Markers are provided at every crib (bait site) to help you with field judging.

This baited Alberta bear hunt only targets boars that will make Pope and Young.

Our hunters have a 98% P&Y success rate, and a 100% shooting opportunity is guaranteed by the outfitter! This is the only bear camp in Alberta with a long term 7-footer harvest rate of 95% AND 25% of color phase bears. On top of all of that, in Alberta you can harvest up to two black bears on the same license.

These are six-day hunts, Sunday to Sunday.

You can sleep in in the morning as the staff works at servicing the quads and getting everything ready for the afternoon hunt. After an early hot and filling lunch, hunters follow their guide on quads to their tree stand. You’ll spend the afternoon on stand and will be pick up just after dark to return to camp to enjoy a hot dinner.
