Things You Need to Know
You will be embarking on a wilderness fly fishing excursion via float plane. All of our fishing locations are in remote areas without any permanent shelter, so a little preparation for your trip will help insure your comfort.
What We Provide
We will provide everything you’ll need for fishing (rod, reels, flies, waders, etc.). We also provide rain jackets (if you don’t have your own), bug deterrents, and sun screen. Our full day trips include a full shore lunch, and our half day trips include a snack. All of our trips include refreshments.
What To Bring
You’ll need sufficient warm clothing for your trip. We suggest dressing in layered clothing, so you can adjust based on conditions. It’s a good idea to check the weather forecast for Juneau to get an idea of temperatures on the day of your trip. In addition to clothing, polarized sunglasses, a hat, and waterproof cameras are also recommended. Guide gratuities are customary in the guided fishing industry. Any amount of gratuity is appreciated; however, 10-20% of your trip cost is recommended.
The Wilderness and Wildlife
Aside from great fishing opportunities, your trip will give you the chance to view and photograph a variety of wildlife in their natural settings. Eagles, other birds and harbor seals are commonly sighted on our trips. Brown and black bears are seen frequently, and we occasionally see moose, Sitka black-tailed deer, wolves and otters as well.
