The Fishing Begins...
The Fishing
With a wide array of accessible streams, we are able to select the best location suited to your group, and which offers the best
fishing opportunities available on any given day.  Streams in Southeast Alaska tend to be small and relatively short but allow
ample room for fly-casting.  We focus our efforts in estuaries and the deeper holes and runs in the first two miles of the stream
corridor.  Other groups are rarely, if ever, encountered.

Southeast Alaska is blessed with abundant runs of Wild Pacific Salmon, fast-action for Dolly Varden (char), Cutthroat Trout
and trophy-sized Steelhead. Fishing opportunities for these species are dictated by run timing which tends to be fairly
consistent from year to year.

Participants should be in good physical condition and be able to walk over uneven ground for 1-2 miles in waders.
Many of these streams we fish are remote and advanced medical support may not be possible in these locations.

As a conservation measure, all of our fishing is done on a catch-and-release basis with barb-less hooks.

Guests will need to purchase an Alaska Non-resident Fishing Licence for $20 from your guide.

Take in a full day of wilderness fishing at its best!  Plan on

many plentiful streams. (The full day trip usually allows for a
more remote location and multiple species fishing.)  After an
introduction to your guide you will be fitted with top quality
waders and fishing equipment from Sage and Ross (and
raingear if necessary). Transportation will be aboard a
DeHavilland floatplane with amazing views along the route.  
After a shoreside landing the fishing begins.  Within the solitude

constant eye out for wildlife!

Wilderness and Wildlife
All of the locations we fish are located in true wilderness. We often see eagles, bears, deer and whales while we are
experiencing their backyard.  Many guests enjoy the setting as much as the fishing itself!
