For the novice and expert angler alike Alaska, is a must-fish destination. This guided fishing charter takes visitors onto glacially fed rivers and tributaries around Talkeetna for a half day of premier salmon and trout fishing.
Quick ride to clear creeks of spawning salmon.
The charter departs from the tour operator office in downtown Talkeetna. Clients and their licensed fishing guide take to the rapid river water just outside of Talkeetna in a flat-bottom boat. It's a quick ride upriver to where the clear creeks of spawning salmon meet the silty glacially-fed main river waters.
The guide adeptly outfits clients with the necessary gear and patiently demonstrates the unique techniques used to fish for salmon. Based on the season, regulations, and local conditions, there's a chance to catch different species of Alaskan salmon and possibly even rainbow trout, Dolly Varden, and Arctic grayling. The charter returns to Talkeetna via riverboat or raft.
The Talkeetna Fishing Half Day charter takes anglers onto the Talkeetna River in either a specialized jet boat or raft. All equipment is provided, including hip boots, rod, reel, line, lures, bait, tackle, and rain gear. Fly fishing gear is available upon advance request.
Guest should dress in warm layers. Bring an extra pair of wool socks along with a rain jacket, hat, sunglasses, and gloves. Don't forget a camera and binoculars.
A State of Alaska fishing license is not included in the charter price. Fishing licenses, snacks, and beverages can be purchased at the guide office prior to tour departure.
The Talkeetna Fishing Half Day charter begins and ends at the tour office in downtown Talkeetna. The tour operator provides complimentary transportation to the office from the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge.

"We had a wonderful guide! He filetted the fish, and we took them to a local bar and grill, and they baked the fish for our lunch."
