It is recommended that you get you fishing license and salmon tag (king) prior to arrival at lodge, our internet does not always work
You will have cell service while you are out fishing, and some times at the lodge. There is no 911 or 7-11's,
If you wish to have your favorite drink...be sure to bring it with you, or purchase in Ketchikan prior to flying out to the lodge. We have a blast, Every client in the past 5 years, has gone home with a 50 # box of fish (min) we pretty much make sure of that..Some take home 150 #'s (check with the airline to see what the charge is for each 50 # box). Not included:
Air Fair to and from Ketchikan, Alaska and the lodge
You fly into Ketchikan, then out to the lodge via a Cessna or beaver float plane, (Family Air or Southeast aviation), there are many more float plane companies that also fly you out to the lodge. Note...
Over the years, I have seen so many bring way to many clothes and what not to the lodge....we do have a washer and dryer..the less you bring, the more fish you can take home! the good old fashion rubber fishing gear really saves you pants....
If coming in a group, you will also need to check with the float plane company that flies you out to the lodge what the weight limit is. Additional charges:
**Gas used in boats
**Replacement cost of any fishing/equipment that is lost, broken or damaged.
**Fish cleaning and packing (you are more than welcome to do it your self)
