  • Dauer: 10 Stunden (ca.)
  • Ort: Sitka, AK
Your day starts at the Sitka Alaska Outfitters fly shop where you will meet your guide and be outfitted with waders and gear for the day.  This is also a good time to purchase a sport fishing license if you have not already(license not included in trip).  It is a short walk down to Crescent Harbor where the boat is ready and waiting to take you to the river.  There are several rivers in the Sitka Area that have Steelhead so where to fish is a game day decision, this way we have the advantage of the most up to date information about runs and conditions.  The boat ride is quite scenic and you may also spot wildlife like Humpback Whales and American Bald Eagles along the way.  Run times to the rivers vary but it is normally less than an hour travel time to the river.  Once at the river you will disembark the boat and your guide will lead the way as you wade and fish.  Your guide will have all gear, safety equipment required to have a fun safe day on the water.  The rivers are relatively small and easy to wade and do not require standing in deep water for extended periods of time.  You will enjoy approximately 7.5 hours at the river and cover approximately 2 miles of water.  A pack lunch is provided and normally eaten streamside if you can pry your fly rod from your fingers long enough to down a sandwich.  All Steelhead fishing is catch and release.  Your guide will assist you with netting your catch and taking pictures so you can take home pictures and memories.
