Alaska Big Game Hunting and Outfitting with Justin Dubay
Testimonials
I have hunted with a lot of outfitters over the years and Justin and his crew are top-notch. The camps, guides, pilot are all excellent. Their knowledge of Unimak and bears is crazy good. The work ethic before and after the hunt is 100%. Can’t wait for future hunts with the crew. Thanks a million.

My experience hunting with Justin was everything I could’ve ever hoped for in a Dall sheep hunt. Before booking my hunt, I reached out to numerous outfitters and there was a noticeable difference in confidence and experience with Justin. He was very professional and patient in waiting it out for my dream ram. I was able to harvest a 12 year old ram on day 10 of my hunt. All preparations and logistics were excellent. It was an experience I will remember and think back on for the rest of my life. If you are in search of an outfitter to book a hunt with, he is your guy!

I had a great experience hunting with Kokanee Guide Service. Justin Dubay was a pleasure to hunt with, was always positive, kept me safe and provided some of the best bush pilots in Alaska. Justin went the extra mile to assure me an opportunity and ultimately a successful sheep hunt. Don’t hesitate to book a hunt with Kokanee Guide Service for an amazing experience and the best opportunity to be successful.

Kokanee Guide Service is the best in the business!!
We spent 16 days in the Alaska Range hunting dall sheep with Justin in 2021. Justin is laid back but focused and passionate about guiding his clients. He has a great reputation and is well respected amongst fellow guides. He is adamant that you receive the best service including outstanding pilots, and good food. Justin’s persistence, hard work and experience helped me be successful on an outstanding ram!!!
Words from a great pilot prior to starting my hunt “if you want to kill a sheep you are with the right guy. He seems to get it done every time.
I couldn’t agree more!

Kokanee guide service is a first-class operation. Justin's knowledge and experience are top notch when it comes to sheep hunting in the Alaskan range. My hunt exceeded all of my expectations in almost every way. Justin went well above and beyond making sure that I was accommodated to and comfortable. It was truly a hunt of a lifetime that ended with me flying home with a sheep that exceeded all of my expectations.

Kokanee Guide Service offers a World class Interior Grizzly hunt. Going to great lengths to find big Boars and provide a legitimate opportunity to harvest a true Interior Grizzly. Kokanee Guide Service should be your first choice if you are questing for a Grizzly. This hunt is an epic backcountry adventure from start to finish.

Recently my son and I returned from a successful brown bear hunt on Unimak Island which was outfitted by Justin Dubay, guided by Charlie Truman. Despite challenging weather and a lengthy delay, we were successful in taking a B&C record brown bear. I have hunted extensively on 4 continents and dealt with many outfitters and Justin is in the top 1% from my experience. I would hunt with him again in a minute. Thanks Justin.

I was lucky enough to draw a Unimak Island Brown Bear tag for spring 2024. I was very excited, and Justin was very helpful every step of the way. He made sure I got the needed flights and hotels. Kokanee Guide Service utilizes top-notch bush pilots who got me to the island quickly and safely. They had top-notch tents and a comfortable camp with plenty of food while on the Island. All in all, it was a trip of a lifetime, and I ended up getting a big boar on the very first day of the hunt. Can’t wait to draw again!

In all my years I have never hunted with a more knowledgeable guide in the ways of Alaskan big game than Justin. I always knew I was in good hands while on the three hunts we have done together. He worked very hard to keep me safe at the same time respecting who I was and my capability’s. When I hunt, I want to be in the best hands I can find. Thanks Justin for all the memories and success we have had in Alaska!

Justin’s knowledge of the mountains and his determination for a successful hunt provided me with the trip of a lifetime. We glassed many sheep and endured some tough weather. Justin’s confidence never faded and we found the ram we were looking for late in the hunt. I would recommend Kokanee Guide Service to anyone looking for a memorable hunt in Alaska. You won’t find a harder working guide.

Justin did not put any pressure on me and was very encouraging with sound advice during my entire hunt. My caribou hunt was worth every bead of sweat, leg cramps, adrenaline, fear and excitement. Sitting around at the end of the day listening to stories was as much fun as being out hiking and glassing. Justin is funny as hell. I can’t wait to return for a grizzly in the future.
Lynn Countway | Enfield, NS Canada
My first trip to Kodiak Island was amazing. I can’t wait for the next one! Justin was an excellent guide and outfitter that made the trip 5 star.

My Alaska Range Dall Sheep with Justin was everything I had hoped for and more. This is a backpack hunt and Justin was knowledgeable beyond expectation and was more than willing to pass on as much info as I could glean from him about sheep in our time together. It involves more than hunting but survival as the mountains don’t care who you are. I am retired special forces and can say he is as hard as any soldier I have served with. We were comfortable and had a tremendously great time. Even in some miserable weather our spirits were high. Having over 200 guided hunts under his belt was evident in every aspect and detail of the experience. I would not hesitate to recommend Justin as a guide to anyone. He will most likely become a friend.

The immense effort Justin put forth to ensure I would have a successful and unforgettable hunt is second to none. I was fortunate enough to take an exceptional bull moose on my hunt. Dubay’s vast knowledge of the territory and Alaskan wildlife, coupled with his experience make him one of the best guides out there! If you are looking for a professional outfitter for your dream Alaskan hunt, then look no further than Justin Dubay.
Jerry Frazee | Menasha, Wisconsin
My experience hunting Dall sheep with Kokanee Guide Service exceeded all of my expectations. Justins knowledge of the country and sheep will make for an experience of a lifetime. I was able to harvest a 13 1/2 year old ram on day five of a ten day hunt with Justin. He went above and beyond in helping with logistics from being picked up at the airport to getting my trophy and meat taken care of after the hunt. I would highly recommend Kokanee Guide Service to anyone looking for a top notch hunt in Alaska.
Calvin Connor | Stone Glacier | Bozeman, Montana
The effort put forth by Justin goes unmatched in making my Dall sheep hunt a success. An experience that I will never forget. I could not recommend a better Outfitter to spend 10 days with in the mountains of Alaska chasing down my dreams.
Kyle Josselyn | Andover, Vermont
Quietly confident while passionate and methodical. Justin is a top notch hunter and guide of whom I have had the pleasure of hunting with twice. Successful hunts both times with great trophies to show for. I look forward to our next hunt! I assure you that finding a more qualified Alaskan guide with the amount of success Justin has brought to his hunters does not exist.
Justin Cichoski | Colgate, Wisconsin
Justin Dubay is one of the best hunters and guides that I have been around. I have had the privilege of being a professional guide and outfitter myself for the last 19 years and that has exposed me to a lot of amazing hunters but Justin is at the top of the list. I have had both the honor of working with Justin on guided hunts and of being guided by Justin on a Kodiak bear and Dall sheep hunt. I learn from him every time I get to be out with him and he has become a close personal friend. I would recommend Justin to anyone looking to hunt big game in Alaska or any other part of the world. He is the type of guide you want to experience in a life of hunting.
Meade Dominick | 7D Ranch Outfitting | Cody, Wyoming
Both of my Hunts with Justin have been lifetime hunts that I reflect on regularly. From a spring brown bear that produced a 10’ bear to a 39” dall sheep. But most of all the work ethic, honesty and overall professionalism that Justin displayed is really what makes a hunt memorable. As a full-time outfitter in the lower 48 I recognize and appreciate the best in the business. Justin Dubay is no doubt one of the best, first class outfits in the business.
