Hunting GIANT Black Bears From a Yacht!| 2023 Alaska Black Bear Day-by-Day (ep.1)

[@timlozano644]

That's a bucket list hunt for me. Super cool watching this.

[@MrBowNaxe]

That would have been a first for me... seeing Randy harvest on the first day! Can't wait to see what's next.

[@robertburke2804]

What is a Yatch? Like SASyatch, Pocket Yatch? NightYatch; Yatch and release? LOL Always good stuff ! Ill yatch it again.

[@mikemellon80]

I’ve been waiting eagerly for this one

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Thanks for watching!

[@mikemellon80]

That bear story is amazing

[@ingelri2]

Randy, you're loving that Superlite rifle! Makes me want one, too!

[@Fresh_Tracks]

You wont regret it! bit.ly/3Nejwam

[@josephpalinkas1406]

First like! Love these black bear hunts! I’m going myself in 2024

[@davidtempleton1838]

Was surprised to see Jim's Pacific brand boat is apparently an aluminum one. I have heard aluminum/salt water creates corrosion issues...?

[@ryanleonnig9894]

Craig is such a beautiful community!

[@shawncowan1075]

Can you tell us what the rifle cover you used was?

[@maddog3737]

Me and the wife fell in love with the Island a couple years ago. This spring is going to be the permanent move we absolutely can’t wait. Randy if you talk to your brother tell him Maddog says hello. I’m an ex B Fallser 😂

[@dannyneal6194]

Not your usual accommodations for sure! Beautiful area!

[@superiorpropertygroup]

Always enjoy your content Randy

[@Saa45MIV]

Did I read that correctly? Did that boat really have twin 600’s on the back? 😮

[@shartman170]

you know it's a good boat when your accountant is telling you to get it.

[@Kluaneking]

I’m thinking about booking a black bear fishing combo next year

[@Huntnlady7]

Randy; why didn't you try to call him in? Worked for me on two bears in CA.

[@sheddogs6153]

As usually your topical Randy

[@georgemurphy9910]

Randy don’t have to get so close. What are you gonna ride it I’ll leave it in your hand 👍👍👍

[@michaelcrossman9692]

At what maximum distance would you have taken with your 308? I assume you are using a Nosler 180 Partition cartridge? If my assumption is wrong, what cartridge are you carrying in your magazine?

[@Fresh_Tracks]

165 Partition. We like to keep our shots 300 yards in most hunting scenarios. We can get pretty close in most instances when hunting coastal black bears!

[@lspostma]

HA!! I just returned from Prince of Whales a couple of weeks ago after a week of hunting blacktail deer on the island. What timing. I am also looking to go on a yacht black bear hunting trip in the next year.

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

How was the hunting? Have a buddy who lives there and says the Deer are tough to hunt and few and far between. Too many wolves.

[@lspostma]

@@Randy_Savage_ohyeah It was very different than I had expected. I was under the impression that there were a bunch of clearcuts and roads back into the woods, but all of the ones on the north half of the island was really overgrown. Few deer, and the rut was later than normal due to excess moisture.

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

@@lspostma if you want to do a good Kodiak Deer hunt i'd recommend Kodiak Island. Ive hunted it several times and could point you in the right direction.

[@lspostma]

@@Randy_Savage_ohyeah Oh I agree fully with that. I was on Kodiak in May helping a friend try to bag a brown bear, and some of the deer sheds we found 😲. The reason I went to POW was because I had won a 6 night stay with travel and meals at a lodge on POW, and couldn't use it during the summer fishing months, so I applied for the bear tag and was not drawn, but had a window of time that I had to use the stay. So blacktail it was.

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

@@lspostma sounds like you know exactly what's up and have connections already. Pretty sweet winning free lodging and meals...i would never get so lucky.

[@briannagorman3119]

Whatever and however I know y'all will get it done and with finesse.

[@mtnave]

"I'm not supposed to life more then 5 pounds" then immediately carries the rifle. Id bet its over 5 pounds in that case.

[@jmb5543]

Hey Judd! I think I found your boat...

[@clintdyson5765]

Not sure why you felt the need to get within shotgun range of a shooter bear and not even have your rifle ready!!! Obviously you really didn't want to kill him. Lol. But after the grouse shooting display. Probably good you don't take a 250 yrd shot! 😂. Great content tho. Makes it exciting

[@robinsok]

😂 Right! It seemed like they walked in the wide open until they spooked him! I agree maybe Randy just didn't want the experience to be over in a matter of hours??

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

Thought he should have set up at 200-175yards and waited for shot opportunity vice pushing in so close in wide open. But not my hunt so my opinion means squat!

[@danielrandolph9170]

What did you think you were going to do walk up 50yds from the bear & lill it lol i guess you do it for making the video !!

[@bobsummers8150]

Why?

[@45auto]

It's spelled Mr Luxory Yatch (sic) but it is pronounced Throat Warbler Mangrove.

[@mrsockeye]

Yeah, definitely can't pass a bear like that.

[@bjeno2]

Next time just beat a drum act like it’s your first time!

[@alvincurry4753]

Sorry stalk.

[@wimtheeuwen7315]

Just stupid, just to play the cool host and forget that hunting is wat we are here for. Kill sheep and elk at 300 +, but let the bear walk at les then 200. Logik or theater.

[@lenniephillips9747]

There was a hunt, but no kill. Some of my most interesting hunts are of animals that outdid me, no shots fired, but lots of fun. If the hunt is all about the kill, then there is something big that's lost.
