5 Night – 4 Day Itinerary*

Click the tabs below to view the details of each day of this 4 day, adventure-packed itinerary. Please note, this is a sample itinerary and the exact order of the itinerary may vary.

Day 1: Arrival

When you arrive in Gustavus, a friendly staff member of our team will pick you up at the airport and bring you to the lodge and take your luggage to your room(s). You will arrive in the afternoon and most guests really enjoy this time, they breathe in the fresh air and decompress from the travels while enjoying the afternoon snack time that we offer at the lodge. This afternoon period is great as you unpack, eat a snack, and become familiar with our accommodations and lodge property while you wait for dinner time.

Day 2-4: Guided Saltwater Fishing

Fishing in the inside passage is not just a fishing experience because while you fish you are surrounded by beautiful scenery of mountains and wildlife. It is also one of the best halibut fishing destinations in the world. Some of the other species we target depending on the season include: King and Silver Salmon, Ling Cod, and several varieties of Rock Fish. You will have your own experienced boat captain and all fishing equipment is provided. We will drive you to the dock and introduce you to your captain, you just go out and enjoy the day and the boat captains will fillet the fish you catch at the end of the day and we will package them in wet-lock boxes so the fish is ready to be taken home. Lunches will be prepared by the lodge and packed and loaded on the boat for you. The waters are normally very calm as there are no ocean swells in the inside passage (see picture). However, during Salmon fishing, the water can be a little rougher depending on the weather. Our boats are 28-31 ft with indoor heated cabins (with head) as well as spacious fishing decks and fish holds to handle your catch! There are typically 4-5 anglers per boat.

Day 5: Guided Freshwater Fishing

This is a day where you really get out in nature and see, taste, and smell Alaska. You will take a boat to one of the rivers in the nearby areas and fish along the banks while watching bears come and go. This is a guided adventure and your guide will help you fish and keep you safe and make sure you have a fun and memorable experience.  All fishing gear is provided. Both fly and spin rods and tackle are available. Waders and boots are also available.

Day 6: Departure

Unfortunately, at some point, the adventure must come to an end. You will be taken to the airport and checked in for your flights by a staff member.  We will help you load your luggage and any fish boxes you may be taking home. The flight from Gustavus to Juneau is scenic and enjoyable.
