Our
fishing boats are geared for Alaskan fishing and
meet US Coast requirements. These include GPS chart
navigation systems, Citizens Band radios, VHF radios
and electronic color depth and fish finders.
Our boats have a heated cabin for your comfort.
We limit groups to four fishermen per boatfive
by special request at the time you make your reservation.
This is the best number for safety and comfort
out on the water.
Be prepared to start your Sitka fishing experience early.
We will head out bright and early to do some world class Sitka fishing at 5am just after breakfast. The sun will already be up
by then and on the way out we will try to catch
an early salmon using lures or mooching. (Don't
worry, your friendly crew will explain it all as
they help you set your line.)
We will continue to fish for salmon for a while,
then head farther out to try to hook some halibut at the bottom of the Alaskan sea.
During our time out on the Alaskan water, you
will be provided wet weather gear and all the tackle
required for successgetting salmon, halibut,
snapper or lingcod to take home, and lunch, too!
You will be back to shore after about ten hours
of fishing. Immediately upon arrival, your catch
will be cleaned, cut into pound to pound-and-a-half
portions, vacuum packed, flash-frozen and boxed
for you to take back on your flight home. You can
watch this process or go enjoy the complementary
appetizers in the lodge before getting ready to
sit down for a gourmet dinner with our renowned chef.

Our Gear

The Avet MXL 4.5:1
with its
smooth drag and
superior casting ability.

Avet Pro EX 30/02 2 speed reel.
With a two speed reel, you will have the mechanical advantage
on pulling any stubborn fish up from the depths.

We choose a 6' Seeker deep sea
rod for those times you hook into a monster halibut
or giant lingcod.

For salmon,
you need something strong enough to withstand Sitka's
powerful kings, yet flexible enough for our acrobatic
silvers. Our 8' 3/4" G.Loomis is the rod of choice.

When conditions call for trolling,
we use the high powered, electric Scotty down-rigger
for that fast retrieve. You will quickly get your
line back in the action.

No need to bring a fighting belt. You can strap on one
of our Braid brand belts for the big one that didn't
get away.
