TROPHY BLACK BEAR HUNTING…WASHINGTON’S QUINAULT INDIAN NATION 320,000 ACRES


Join expert Guide Jim Jones as he pursues some of the largest Coastal Black Bears you will ever see anywhere. The majority of the bears harvested here are big block headed boars that will score well over 19-20 inches in skull, measure over 7 feet plus nose to tail in length and will be in the 350-500 pound range. Hunts are conducted from either tree stands or ground blinds depending on the hunt set up and the weather. We hunt exclusively over bait stations that are consistently monitored by game cameras and are check on and baited on a daily basis by Jim himself. Our hunt access is over 320,000 acres on the Quinault Reservation that is closed to public entry.
 

GUARANTEED OVER THE COUNTER TAGS… 

 

There is no need to travel to Vancouver Island Canada or SE Alaska and pay $6,000-8,500 dollars PLUS TRAVEL AND LICENSES for an expensive outfitter to hunt Black Bear. Bears Claw Guide Service located on the Quinault Indian Reservation in Washington offers World Class Black Bear hunting for $2,250.00 (4-DAY HUNT) plus a guaranteed over the counter permit Quinault Native Permit is only $250.00 ($2,500.00 HUNT TOTAL).  

 

Hunters are required to send a $500.00 deposit to reserve a specific hunt date. All deposits are non refundable and non transferable. THERE IS NO WASHINGTON STATE HUNTING LICENSE REQUIRED WHILE HUNTING THE RESERVATION.
 
Just like in Alaska, the abundant runs of Sockeye, Chinook, Silvers, Steelhead, and Chum salmon that enter the Quinault, Queets, and Clearwater rivers provide abundant food for black bears. This source of enhanced protein is what puts on the pounds and creates the growth on the coastal bears of the Quinault Reservation. All Permits are sold on a first bought, first sold, LIMITED BASIS AND ARE NON TRANSFERABLE.
 

MULTIPLE BEAR TAGS AVAILABLE… 


A hunter may harvest an additional bear during their scheduled hunt dates. The second bear maybe harvested for an additional $50.00 Tribal Permit and a $000.00 Trophy Fee payable in cash to your guide Jim Jones prior to the start of the second hunt. The second bear must be taken within the originally scheduled hunt dates.
 

AVAILABLE HUNT ACCOMMODATIONS…

 

Hunters are required to provide their own food and local lodging BEFORE, DURING and AFTER THEIR SCHEDULED HUNT. We have secured a special on site room rate of $70.00 per night, per hunter to stay at a very comfortable home that offers a morning cereal breakfast, sack lunch and a delicious home cooked dinner. Please make us aware of any special dietary needs well before the hunt if you plan to use this service. (FYI-There are no alcoholic beverage sales on the Reservation).

 

We also have arranged for a special hotel room rate for those hunters who wish to stay at the nearby Quinault Casino. (This is a great place to bring your family while you are out hunting.)
 
If you prefer to make your own lodging reservations, you are welcome to tent camp in designated state camping areas or contact any of the many nearby beach resort hotels and motels in the area. (Check our listed motels for quick reference).

WEAPONS RECOMMENDATIONS

 

We recommend the following: Modern Rifle 30: Caliber or larger. Archery 50 lb. min. or Muzzleloader hunters are all welcome. We can also advise you as to the necessary clothing and personal gear needed for this type of hunt.
 
Black Bears live in very dense cover so it is important to drop the animal as quickly as possible…a badly wounded bear is considered a kill as it is with virtually all guided hunts. Our guides are proven experts and will make that determination.
