ALASKA
SALTWATER FLY FISHING
HALIBUT + ROCKFISH
FULL DAY CHARTER
Available: May 15th - June 30th
Fly fish the productive waters along Alaska’s north Gulf coast, western Prince Williams Sound, and Montague Island for halibut and rockfish.
We offer long-range trips in our early season from May through mid-July when its possible to hunt for big halibut with flies in shallow water using 10-12 weight fly rods and a variety of sinking lines. Depending on weather and tidal conditions fly fishing is done while drifting or while anchored over structure. The majority of our fishing time is spent targeting the harder to hook trophy halibut and then switch over to fly fishing for the more prolific rockfish on our way back to port.
If you are game for a new and exciting challenge we invite you to contact us and learn more about the last frontier in saltwater fly fishing.

TRIP PLANNING
FAQ’s About Our Alaska Saltwater Fly Fishing Trips.
+ How can I book a trip?
The easiest way to book a trip is to email us or call 907-362-7780. We typically respond to messages in the evening once we are off the water. Thank you for your patience!
+ Do I need to book the entire boat?
Groups that buy the boat for the day are our preference as it's easier to manage angler expectation and the understanding that this Alaska saltwater fly fishing game is, often times, a team effort and that a successful day is not measured by a single anglers success but by the collective success of the boat working as a unit. That said, if we have interest from multiple parties for the same date we will combine groups on a case-by-case basis to fill the boat and run the trip. Please contact us to discuss details and availability.
