Alaska Fishing Guide and Lodge Recommendations
TeacherMan:
Really depends on the experience you are looking for. Are you wanting the "Lodge on the Water" experience, or are you just wanting incredible fishing? I worked with tons of guides in AK doing advertising for them until about two years ago. I fell into it because I owned a hotel on the Kenai Peninsula. I can definitely connect you with guides that will give you the adventure of a lifetime if you're looking for that route. Personally, I would target halibut and ling out of Valdez and then go for kings out of Copper Center on the Klutina. The later you get to the closure of Aug. 10th on the king, the better usually. If you want any info on that, shoot me a message. I have guides that I'd 100% recommend that stand out and go way above and beyond others.
Price breakdown:
- Saltwater Charter ($500 a person) - $1500 a day for 3 x 2 days = $3000
- King fishing/class III rafting float ($400 a person) - $1200 a day for 3 x 1 days = $1200
Saves quite a bit for a rental car, hotels and doing whatever else. If you could expand your trip to 6-7 days you'd really enjoy it and actually get to see a little bit of Alaska.

Calder Mountain Lodge. Best option in my opinion. Look up their web page. Might be too late for this summer. Fishing is great. Great people too.
halibut herb:
SE Alaska went to 1 king salmon annual limit for non residents this year. We moved our Sitka trip to later in the summer to target Coho. If Salmon is what you are after be mindful of that and don't go too early. Or go somewhere that doesn't have the 1 fish restriction.
