Trip Details

 

 

Anglers can target a number of fresh and saltwater species in the fertile waters around Boardwalk Wilderness Lodge. Stream and river fishing consists of steelhead, rainbow trout and dolly varden. Stream and saltwater fishing involves all five species of Pacific salmon. For those that prefer the solitude of wading streams with the fly or spinning gear, you'll be treated to many nearby streams that offer fantastic salmon action. For those that would like to pursue a barn door size halibut, then hop aboard one of the 23-26 foot Olympic Ocean cruisers fitted with heated cabins and restrooms with one of the U.S. Cost Guard approved guides. There are even optional flyout trips available for a nominal fee.

Season

 

April to September. This southeastern portion of Alaska boasts a surprisingly moderate and comfortable climate throughout the entire fishing season, from April through September. In fact, over the past five years, Boardwalk anglers have not had to cancel a day of fishing due to inclement weather. For one of the most productive steelhead fisheries around, consider this destination in May and early June. You can expect a realistic 10 to 15 steelhead per angler, in a week's time at Boardwalk. King salmon are strong in June and July, as are the abundant sockeyes. Silver salmon action heats up July through August, while abundant pinks are migrating from August through September. Deep water halibut and cod fishing is just 100 yards off shore and is available throughout the entire season.
