Get serious about fishing with four hours on the water and a knowledgeable Coast Guard-licensed skipper. This premium Alaskan salmon-fishing charter is a chance to learn all about the migration patterns of the salmon as well as the most effective way to catch them. Your skipper takes you to some of the best local hotspots to fish for a once-in-a-lifetime fishing adventure -- it's designed for all experience levels and suitable for all ages. The boat has an enclosed, heated cabin, comfortable seating, plenty of viewing space and a restroom. Snacks and bottled water are provided.
You'll troll specific areas for seasonal salmon fishing. Target one species or, depending on the time of year, go for the grand slam and attempt to catch all five -- king, silver, sockeye, pink and chum.
Catch a fish? Now enjoy every bite, perfectly prepared on board the ship and expertly served at your dinner table through the Savour My Catch program. This is a true ocean-to-fork experience available with this fishing adventure. Alternatively, the fish you catch can be professionally processed locally (flash-frozen) and shipped to your home for an additional charge.
Notes:
Party size is limited to six guests. Tidal conditions can make the dock ramp very steep. Trolling involves using a downrigger to lower the bait to a specific depth. There are two downriggers that hold up to four fishing lines; when conditions allow, two more lines will be used for a potential of six fishing lines out at once. Fishermen are rotated or assigned rods depending on number of lines so that everyone has a fair chance to catch a fish. A light snack and water are provided. Minimum age is 5 years. Dress warmly in layers with a windproof 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 USA only) will need to bring their credit card to pay for processing. A catch is likely but is not guaranteed. Although this tour is included in the Savour My Catch program; there is no guarantee that your catch will meet the required food safety standards (temperature, condition, color, etc) upon delivery to the ship; the ship's food preparation staff will assess your catch's suitability. The Alaska Department of Fish & Game implements conservation measures to protect king salmon; restrictions on keeping your catch may apply. Please check directly with the Alaska Department of Fish & Game for restrictions specific to your tour date. Only fish species that do not have restrictions in place can be shipped home or delivered to the ship for Savour My Catch.
