Breathtaking views and magnificent fishing are the order of the day as up to four guests enjoy five hours of saltwater fishing in Kodiak. This island is home to the famous Kodiak brown bear sub-species as well as marine wildlife, including humpback, fin and minke whales, and occasionally, orca whales.
Meet your crew at St Paul Harbor and climb aboard a custom 28-foot Peregrine landing craft. Outfitted with 20-foot-long pontoons on either side, this stable vessel is your platform for targeting Pacific halibut, king salmon, and rockfish.
The fishing grounds are generally 30 minutes away. Bait, tackle, rods, and reels for the day are included, along with light snacks such as fruit, muffins and water.
Back at the harbor, if you want to keep your catch, a separate fee is charged for the crew to professionally filet your catch and ship it from Kodiak to your destination of choice. It is vacuum-packed and flash-frozen for transportation.
Notes:
A light snack is provided. Minimum age is 5 years. Dress warmly in layers with a wind- and waterproof outer layer; bring gloves, a scarf and a warm hat. Guests who choose to have their fish processed and sent home (to the US only) must bring a credit card to pay for processing. A catch is likely but is not guaranteed. The Alaska Department of Fish & Game implements conservation measures to protect king salmon; restrictions on keeping your catch may apply.
