I'm hoping to pull this off also. It would have to be 2013 though.

Well Biggie for you I will not smoke any pork chops or boston butts a week before I go unless you want me to bring us some snacks   :bigsmyl:  

No sir, no smoking here. Pork, tobacco or other. I have wanted to do one of those "boat" hunts that I have read about or find a local that is sympathetic to the cause that will let me trade 'em a whitetail hunt here.

Who are you thinking of booking with? I spoke with a guy who lives in Kenai, Al that is a guide for sitka blacktails on Kodiak and I believe he does POW also. I think he is on this site from time to time. Can't find his info. now....@#$!! Maybe he'll chime in.

I'm interested. I was going to go this year but decided to do another Elk hunt with a few other Trad Gang members. I have been looking at another area but I'm open to any of the areas suggested.

That does sound good cacciator. I'm not sure how legal it is though. I would possibly be interested in going hunting up here with a couple guys, and maybe in the future, heading into someone else's neck of the woods to Chase something new .

Ahhh yes the elusive Sitka Blacktails.  Lots of work lots of fun.  Nothing like SE Alaska alpine.  Looking forward to this year chasing with all homemade equipment.  Anyone out there thinking about 2011?  If your POW bound give me a shout, love to meet some fellow tradgangers and you're welcome to tune up on my 3D course.  Maybe we can hook up on a hike or two.

Shedrock 2012 still looking good.

Beau you gotta come over and shoot a round or two if you're in the neighborhood.

Only smoking I do is salmon, sausage and jerky.  Dang hills are to steep here for any other kind of smoking.

If you guys have any questions on Sitkas or hunting SE lets here em.  I'm happy to help out.
