Anchorage Fishing Charters

Anchorage has some tremendous urban fisheries. But the most popular way to experience a great day of guided fishing from Anchorage is on a fly-in fishing trip. You'll hop in a floatplane with your guide, fly to a remote (and always scenic) location, and cast your line.

Sometimes these remote spots are just that -- a spot in the wilderness where your guide knows there is top-notch fishing. Other times, you'll land at a fishing lodge. At the end of the day, your catch is filleted with the option to ship it home for you to enjoy after your Alaska vacation is over.
