I live in Alaska and throughout the summer and autumn go on many hike in, boat in and fly in fishing adventures, fly fishing for salmon, steelhead, trout, dolly varden and grayling. Countless times I have come upon bears including grizzlies with cubs. All are potehtially deadly and unpredictable 100% of the time. Sure, yes, it's true that bears are not always aggressive nor defensive. But nonetheless, I am always armed with both a 12 gauge brush gun (loaded with rifled slugs and shot) and a .44 magnum handgun strapped to my chest. I also carry bear spray. Although it's true that holding bear behavior awareness is more important than any firearm, four times I have done everything right and nothing stupid yet was charged, and those weapons saved my life. It's foolish to enter bear habitat without a firearm.
I can tell you never had to fire that deer & home intruder defense handgun 44 at a bear because you are still alive and I high think you are another UA-cam comments liar because Alaskans like me who guided 26 years for these bears never ever use such a wimpy handgun for Alaskan bears and never did any guide I knew ever used wimpy handguns for bears. The common bear gun in Alaska starts at 338 win mag with the most common are the 375 H&H mag and the 416 magnums not a wimpy handgun of any size !. This BS that handguns are bear cannons is PUNK ASS BS by big city slicker green horns who never in there life ever been to Alaska. It really gets stupid with morons like you thinking large Alaska bears can be knocked off with a single pistol bullet that has less energy than a 30-30 win and the pistol bullet only carry's it's energy for a short range . The next PUNK ASS stupidity is bears start charging at long range so you have time to fire all 15 round from a large auto pistol .
@WTF Kyle From what I have researched, a 10mm is a very capable (and recommended) bear defense "handgun' (knowing that handguns are not the ideal firearm like a rifle or shotgun, but they can be practical depending on the situation), but the other important aspect is the ammo. It is recommended to use hard cast ammo as opposed to FMJ.
You went in there unarmed???!!! That's just crazy and just plain Stupid! I only live in Massachusetts, but I fish in some remote heavily wooded areas that have a pretty heavy concentration of black bears, and I recently had a very close encounter with one! Thank God I had my .45-auto on me, I had just enough time to draw and fire a round over his head and luckily it scared the shit out of him and he ran off! After I calmed down I got the hell out of there! I didn't want to hurt him if I didn't have to, fortunately the day had a happy ending both for myself and the bear!
Craig Murley one issue we face in Canada however (where this is filmed) is legally we are not allowed to carry a restricted firearm in the woods , (restricted being any handgun or rifle the government looks "scary")... so when it comes to fishing here in Canada where this is filmed really we don't have much of an option as far as a firearm goes! I suppose if you had your "pal" and were willing to cary a rifle or shotgun over your shoulder that would work, but when wading upstreams that's pretty difficult to do... soooo bear mace and bangers it issss for us!
Craig Murley I bet that's not the only kind of happy ending you needed that day. The bear probably needed one, too, from an Asian black bear, no doubt.
A .45 is NOT a bear defense weapon! I have one and like it, but it was designed for hydra-shock to knock down a human and is not capable of knocking down even a black bear, let alone a grizzly. With bears, particularly Grizzlies, you need penetration. I fish in the area where this was filmed and carry a 12 gauge loaded with 3” magnum, Sabot slugs. I have never had to fire it - back away, you are the intruder! P.s. bear bangers are not helpful with Grizzlies.
I suppose it depends on your definition of "their house". It doesn't take a lot of extrapolation to include the entire province of British Columbia, with the exception of Vancouver and a few other small cities. The province is enormous and sparsely populated. For a sense of the scale of the province, you should note that it is larger than California, Oregon and Washington (state) combined. There is lots of room for the bears and for people that are seeking recreation, its just that you don't know when you will encounter a bear. I have never shot at a bear and have every intention to keep it that way - I am not a hunter and I even release all the fish that I catch. By spending my vacation $$$ in British Columbia I am supporting low-impact tourism and thereby the local economy. If you spend any time up there, you quickly realize that the economies of the smaller cities and towns in BC are primarily supported by resource extraction - principally timber and mining. Unlike those industries, fly-fishing tourism leaves intact the habitat on which the bears depend. The fees I pay for fishing licenses and daily permits (over $300 Canadian, this year) help to fund broader conservation efforts and also help to pay the salaries of fish and game enforcement officers who are the first line of defense for wildlife. On the whole, I have no difficulty justifying my role in the eco-system and my relationship with the bears, of whom I remain in awe. @@lovely3097

No handguns "In general, the only firearms allowed for wilderness protection are non-restricted rifles and shotguns. The following individuals, provided they are Canadian residents and have a licence that allows them to possess restricted firearms, may be authorized to carry a handgun or restricted long gun for wilderness protection:" His comment is pretty fucking stupid
Lmao please be more obvious.. camping in areas with bears without a firearm isn’t uncommon.. at all.. A hand gun is going to piss off a grizzly.. not kill it. If your going to bring a gun it better be a powerful one, you better have it on your side at all times, and you better pray you can pull the trigger in time. If you miss your dead. Might as well go without one to be honest
Love the Bears, go see them on Kodiak, helicopter ride is amazing looking around . . . It was so beautiful we went again again!! Big Bear, called him #Scarface . . I miss him, hope he is still alive, he graced us with his presence and I didn’t want to leave . . . 😍🙏🐻🐻🐻
First video I've watched for this channel which has now got me organising my fishing gear waiting for Spring to hit here in Massachusetts. Thankfully, we don't have Brown/Grizzly bears here, but, the black bears are just about everywhere out here in Western Massachusetts.... that and Moose. Subscribed.
I enjoyed the video. It's a bummer the so-called friend didn't share his fishing rod. What a tight wad! Real friends share when the other took a lost because of some unforeseen, unprovoked misfortune. Keep living the good life!
Don't be fools with your life. I'm in bear country, my .44 magnum is with me. Loaded with 6 hot, hardened lead 320gr. bear stoppers. Even the muzzle blast from the .44 mag will usually turn them. I'm not a gambler because the odds are always against gamblers.
Charles Joseph , the laws in Canada don't allow you to own handguns. This is more like it. If the laws in Canada did allow you to own them, you'd have them. Please don't play tough guy without giving a complete picture of why you don't bring a handgun with you or need one... It's simple, you can't by law. A rifle or a shotgun would be too cumbersome in this type of cover but still useful if only to turn a bear away. You probably have never seen how quickly things can turn really ugly with a bear, particularly a grizzly. Aside from your post, gorgeous video of B.C. Spectacular province.
@@Nexus-ub4hs Bingo!!...Guns miss and pepper spray works just as well! Plus, its usually the sound that scares them anyway, so an air horn wold work just as well..Its actually painful for animals with good hearing.

You KNOW the dangers and yet you still venture into Grizzly territory without firearms...you're tempting fate and playing with your lives. Some people don't fear death , but being eaten by a grizzly would be one of the worst ways to go.
Hey, Joe-Bob...you don't NEED a firearm license to carry a handgun in the wild. What you probably meant to say was that you're an ex convict and can't OWN a gun, RIGHT ?
I've caught small wild rainbows with a sweet boron rod with 4lb line, 2lb leaders and they take all the line they want, FUN, I can only imagine those wild steelhead what a blast!!!
Crispy K Lol! Either that or he knew he had just about the only fish in there and he didn't give a crap about those two. I liked that uh comment at the end about friends...wtf? Glad they let the fish go too. More for the bear.😂🐾🐗🎣
I get it. One fish, more than one bear, two humans (at least). Quinn is commenting on the scarcity of what we love: steelhead. Period. Move along folks, it's a good story with meaning. I share the bear phobia and for good reason, won't stop me from fishing and exploring either. Good stuff Quinn, I'm with ya
Bear spray minimum. Firearms maximum. Otherwise ya exposing yourselves to an ever increasing risk of potentially being attacked with no means of protection.
Bears are great at looking like they are ignoring while they take a read. They will often dig to put their watchers at ease. I"ve seen that on youtube videos. Particularly when they stalk baby buffalo whose parents are in a group being protected. The bear will go after the babies and find one that can't keep up. The bear presses the border of the herd to get them running.
Nice video guys! Good storyline to the vid. Your luck with casting, two snags in a row, and then breaking your fly rod, is exactly why mine stays in the closet most of the time, ha ha!
You guys go into predator territory at the worst possible time of the season and do it without a firearm? do you understand these beasts will eat you while you're still alive? They will rip your flesh and guts out while you lay there helpless
I once saw a grizzly in the mountains it might have been a teenager it wasn't huge bigger than me but I said oh how cute I said hi mr. grizzly bear while I drove past him on the road and the grizzly bear said hi back just put up one paw and stood up I couldn't believe it it was magical
I really enjoyed the way you showed respect to the bears being guest at their table. I really like the *take n leave* way of fishing. Enjoy & Respect wilderness!
Yes thank you! All these people saying "carry a gun" no absolutely not necessary maybe for people but not wildlife. If you don't bother them, they don't bother you
you are wrong......bears with cubs will kick your butt........male bears feeling their oats, deer/elk get crazy,same way.......consider wild animals as sociopathic/very dangerous albeit cute
Great video , avid fly fisherman here aswell mostly chasing sea run browns and Atlantic salmon .. hard luck when your buddies don't give you a switch or two eh , especially after that hike but hey we all aren't so thoughtful
Love the woods area but not too excited about being that close to a bear. Live in New Mexico where the bear can be in the yard anytime of the day. Haven't seen one in my sister's yard this year but we do see lots of deer.

@@wmiller7208 There are no grizz. in Maine bud, common sense.
@Mr. Browning lol your right. I didn't realise they were only in a few spots.
Amazing camera lens
Ever heard of using a sapling as a rod? You can fly fish with a short amount of line
never knew Thor liked fishing
OML!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Loki was the bear trying to trick Thor
he do look like thor
😂😂😂😂n without his hammer.
Wow awesome hit ....thanks for thinking it out....and he told you don't brake your rodddddd...and you did....fish trip over for you
I really enjoyed the way you showed respect to the bears being guest at their table. I really like the *take n leave* way of fishing. Enjoy & Respect wilderness!
Yes thank you! All these people saying "carry a gun" no absolutely not necessary maybe for people but not wildlife. If you don't bother them, they don't bother you
you are wrong......bears with cubs will kick your butt........male bears feeling their oats, deer/elk get crazy,same way.......consider wild animals as sociopathic/very dangerous albeit cute
Who in hell holds their rod in the middle when fighting a fish!? Lmao, rookie move.
Catch and release. Honorable!
Great video , avid fly fisherman here aswell mostly chasing sea run browns and Atlantic salmon .. hard luck when your buddies don't give you a switch or two eh , especially after that hike but hey we all aren't so thoughtful
LIKE A DONUTE ON A SILVER BANQUET PLATE---LOL-AWESOME DUDE! LMAO
Wow, amazing video 👍👍👍
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL MOVIES
Love the woods area but not too excited about being that close to a bear. Live in New Mexico where the bear can be in the yard anytime of the day. Haven't seen one in my sister's yard this year but we do see lots of deer.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
So so so much fun!!!!
oatmeal, cofee and beans.... now that is the breakfast of champions
Thank you, great video.
Wow what an awesome video
8:42 was funny haha
What can someone do when you break your rod? Are there any fly shops near?
Awesome video and commentary!!
