All hunts are 1 on 1 unless other arrangements are made.

Shrimping, crabbing and clam digging are available on all boat trips and depend on the location and time of year. Hunting trip prices do not include 5%-6% sales tax, tags, licenses or AKNRHPF.
|
Terrain |
The terrain consists of rugged mountains rising from sea level to 5000 feet with heavy spruce/hemlock rainforest up to 2000 feet. Hunting is usually done by glassing the beaches and grass flats during the spring Island Black Bear Hunts. Rigorous exertion and hiking/climbing is required for Mountain Goat hunts. Moderate/rigorous exertion is required for the Deer hunt and minor exertion is required for the Black Bear, Fishing and Seaduck hunting trips.

We anchor in secluded bays in the evening, or you may choose to stay at the Fly In Fish Inn for all of or any portion of your trip. Your catch will be professionally vacuum-sealed and frozen every night. The sight seeing opportunities are endless with many Humpback Whales, Sea Otters, Steller Sea Lions, Bears, Puffins, Guillemots, Auks & Gulls. Beach combing, kayaking, stream fishing and just enjoying the rugged coastline are all available to you. A portion of your catch will be prepared for each night's meal during your trip. At the end of your trip, you and your processed/boxed catch will be transported to the Fly In Fish Inn. The sightseeing opportunities around town are well worth enjoying after fishing. All expenses incurred in town before or after the trip are not included. Fishing on a fast, comfortable 38' charter vessel gives you the best fishing opportunity away from the crowds amidst the vast Southeast Alaskan wilderness.
