Gear up for an authentic fishing excursion in the unspoiled wilderness of Alaska's southeastern coastline. This tour is customized for any interest and skill level with just five or six guests per boat. You'll board an open-air boat and glide into a breathtaking landscape. Your guide leads you to secluded locations for wildlife viewing and remote fishing. You'll experience the thrill of angling for numerous bottom fish species and possibly Pacific salmon when they are in season. Most folks reel in a catch - this excursion is renowned for the highest catch rate of any Alaska fishing experience. Your skiff heads to a wilderness campsite where a crackling fire awaits. You'll experience this outdoor culinary adventure as the camp cook prepares your freshly caught fish served atop a saffron-infused bouillabaisse. It's no wonder Food & Wine magazine called this "The world's best camp meal ever."
