Alaska Fishing Outfitters
Alaska Glacier Adventures is based in Craig, Alaska, which is a short 1/2 hr. floatplane ride due west of Ketchikan on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island. We offer fully guided fishing and hunting trips from our brand new 38' custom-built, twin-diesel, high-speed, fishing vessel the "GLACIER".

We will head out to the fishing grounds the morning of the first day on the "GLACIER" and you will fish the following 4 days for Halibut, King Salmon, Lingcod, Yelloweye Rockfish, Dungeness Crab, and Giant Alaska Spot Prawns. Many other fish are available to catch and the sight-seeing opportunities abound with frequent sightings of Humpback Whales, Killer Whales, Bears, Sea Otters, Sea Lions, Seals, Puffins, Cormorants, Gulls, Murres, etc.
 

River Fishing, Kayaking & Bear Viewing are all available during the trip. This high-volume fishing trip will find you dining on your fresh catch of shrimp, crab and fish and the rest will be professionally vacuum-sealed and frozen at sea. Your processed, frozen and boxed catch will be transported to a holding facility while you enjoy the many sight-seeing opportunities Craig has to offer.
The boat can accommodate 4 clients and the trips are all-inclusive. Included in the package is all fish processing, all gear/tackle, taxes, licenses, lodging and meals for the 4 days on the boat.

Not included is airfare to and from Craig and any expenses incurred in Craig after the trip is over.

In one recent year, the biggest Halibut were 245, 215, 205, 180, 160 and many smaller. The biggest King Salmon were 36, 34, 32, 30 and many smaller. The best Lingcod were 52, 49, 48, 45 and many more. The best Yelloweye Rockfish were 20, 18, 16 and many smaller. The best Silver Salmon was 16, 14 and many smaller. There were many Bears spotted and loads of Shrimp and Crab were eaten. This "once in a lifetime trip" is far more than just a fishing trip.
