I am planning to go moose hunting in 16b here in mid September. It's a diy hunt with my brother in law who is an alaskan resident. Since I'll be hunting with family, I could shoot a grizzly bear if I purchase the tag and have an opportunity. My question is, does anyone have experience hunting grizzlies in 16b? I understand that it's thick and marshy/swamps so visibility is limited or can be. The tag costs me 1,000.00 and a black bear tag costs 450.00. While it would be awesome to shoot a grizzly, it is not the purpose of the trip and a thousand dollars is a lot of money for a tag if there aren't very many bears in the area. Another down side to shooting a grizzly, everyone tells me you don't eat them. Like, surely the back straps are good.? I love black bear meat and can hardly accept that grizzly meat isn't worth eating. So the short version of the question is, "have any of you guys hunted 16b? And is it worth spending a thousand dollars on a tag?
thanks
