Take your pick of
streams, lakes or ponds (big
or small) filled with
Salmon, Dolly Varden Char
and Cutthroat Trout!
The fish are in
abundance but the crowds of
people sure aren't.
Most days the only other
people you will see are the
ones in your fishing group.
Our usual group size is
between 2 - 4 but we can
take up to a maximum of 6.
Don't know the art of
flyfishing? We can teach
you, at no extra charge.
Flyfishing poles, hand-tied
flies, (I have been tying
our own flies for the past
11 years and believe me,
these flies work!) spin-cast
rods and reels with all the
hooks you will need are all
provided.
Or if you prefer, we invite
you to bring your own "tried
and true" rod and reel from
home.
We are available for
fishing trips from mid-June
through the end of
September.
Plan to leave the town of
Wrangell around 7:30AM.
Don't forget to eat a good
breakfast and bring a sack
lunch.
Float jackets are provided
for your warmth, comfort and
safety.
Usually within an hour's
travel time we will be
fishing. Most of the streams
that we fish do not require
any walking into, we jet
boat you right to them.
All fish are catch and
release.
After a full, relaxing
day of fishing, we return to
Wrangell about 4:30PM. |

Take a
Saltwater Fishing day trip with us
and fish for BOTH Salmon and
Halibut in the same day!
Plan
to leave the town of Wrangell around
7:30 AM. Don't forget to eat
a good breakfast and bring a sack
lunch. Float jackets are provided
for your warmth, comfort and safety.
As the salmon enter into the Inside
Passage during the summer months,
they feed on herring and needle fish
along the shoreline and kelp beds.
With a bright flash the salmon hits
the bait fish.
For a real challenge, use a
light tackle rod and reel or
flyfishing gear to fish for
hard-fighting-chrome-bright Salmon.
You cast your fly or spinner into
the bait fish and start to retrieve.
Slow at first, working it as a
wounded herring and then faster as a
needle fish trying to make its way
out of danger.
Suddenly a school of Humpys (Pink
Salmon) come out of the deep green
water, hot on the tail of your hook.
One of the hungry salmon
strikes...you set the hook and the
fight begins. It takes several trips
around the boat before the tired
salmon is finally brought close
enough to the side of the boat to
net. After removing the hook you
cast again, waiting anxiously for
the next fish to bite.
Will it be a single Coho this time?
Or maybe even a King Salmon? You
never know, since all of these fish
feed on the bait fish.
Sounds like fun? It is!
Deep-sea
fishing for Halibut, Rock Fish and
Ling Cod in the Inside Passage is a
lot different than fishing on the
outside waters. Our seas here are
very mild. Many days the water
is so calm that you might think that
you were fishing on a lake.
Halibut can weigh up to 250 pounds
and is fantastic eating.
