Bear Hunting in Alberta?
 
What's the hunting like the first week of May in Alberta? I have hunted only the end of May in the past.

I live in Northern Alberta and to be honest,my favorite time to hunt bears is the first two weeks of May.The hides are unrubbed,and the mosquitoes are not out in full force yet.However,a late winter can result in many bears still not being active at the start of May.

Where bouts you going? Peace River area is LOADED with bear. Went in August last year and couldn't hardly throw a stick without hitting one. Saw 22 bears in 2 days! Awesome hunt and the experience of a lifetime.

I went with Bear Paw Outfitters and shot a nice bear and seen some absolute toads. My buddy passed one 7'4", killed the next night. A lot of good area around there. Good luck

google - bear paw outfitters in Alberta. They are near Peace River. Scott and his wife are great people and run a top notch operation. Start dieting now and maybe you won't put on too much weight if you go.

My wife and I have hunted with Alberta Bear Busters the past two years, both times in early and mid-May. Our hunt was near High Level, Alberta which is about 500 miles north of Edmonton. It is definitely a taget rich environment. I have taken two 6'6" and a 6'4" and my wife took a 7'1" this past May and a beautiful blonde bear the year before. We hunted this year from the 8th to the 15th of May and the bears were just coming out of hibernation and the capes were thick, long and beautiful. If you are interested, the outfitter's name is Pat McLean and his number is 403-345-6315 or cell 403-331-8989.
