Alaska Fishing
Report
Glacier Bay and Icy Strait possess all the best attributes of saltwater big game fishing. Halibut, King and Coho Salmon, Ling Cod, and Yellow Eye are just a few of the many species that are abundant here in the Inside Passage. Because we primarily fish inside waters, travel time to blue-ribbon fishing grounds takes less than 20 minutes.
Why Fish With Us
Report
Our area produces the largest Halibut (See chart with ADF&G Statistics below) It is a fact, the average halibut caught in our area is 2-3 times larger than the average halibut caught in Homer, Sitka, Seward, Ketchikan, Kodiak, Valdez, and the list goes on! We fish were the whales and other marine mammals are so you just might get a spectacular show while you fish.
Saltwater Fishing
Report
Glacier Bay and Icy Strait possess all the best attributes of saltwater big-game fishing, without the shortcomings. Because we primarily fish inside waters, travel time to blue-ribbon fishing grounds often takes less than 20 minutes. Because there are no ocean swells where we fish, seasickness is rare.
Freshwater Fishing

While saltwater fishing is what makes the Glacier Bay-Icy Strait area famous, it is also home to various freshwater systems filled with a variety of fish to catch. With Salmon, Dolly Varden, wild Steelhead, and Cutthroat Trout, Southeast Alaska is a premier freshwater fishing destination.

Our freshwater guides are experienced wilderness guides and competent, enthusiastic teachers.
