RE: AK bear hunt
I talked to my bro today and he basically said the same thing you did. Black bear tag is $250, and a 14 day combo fishing/hunting license is $135 I think. We'll be flying into Anchorage and staying in Palmer if I remember correctly. He caught some REAL nice salmon last year. I've never been to AK, in fact, this will be my 1st big hunt outside VA, so I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks for the info!
