Fishing Frenzy

TRIP INFORMATION:

For most sportsmen and women, Alaska conjures up images of floatplanes, rugged offshore boats, rivers full of salmon, and long battles with trophy fish.  The results are full coolers, sore arms, and the best night's sleep in years.  Well.... this is not just a dream.  It happens nearly every day here at Destination Alaska!  Over the years, our team has recognized and shared the passion built into our DNA for the fast twitch of the Rainbow Trout on a fly rod and the hard pull of the mighty Halibut on the deep sea rod.  

Not for the faint of heart, the Destination Alaska Adventures engineering team put together a 7-day 6-night package that will send you deep into the heart of Alaska by floatplane in search of Arctic Grayling, Rainbow Trout, and Char.  Once you arrive in Homer, you'll settle into one of our amazing log chalets overlooking Kachemak Bay.  Let's go fishing!  For three full days, you'll have a fly rod in hand while knee-deep in multiple lakes and rivers drifting egg patterns, streamers, and other flies, luring these native fish out of their hiding places. 

On day four, you'll board our floatplane and head out to the end of the Kenai Peninsula where the M/V Peregrine and her crew will be waiting to welcome you aboard.  This incredible vessel sleeps 8-10 comfortably and is known as Adventure Headquarters. Each morning you'll wake up to the smell of fresh coffee and a hearty breakfast before heading out on one of our "built for Alaska" offshore vessels.  These custom Bayweld boats have big horsepower, gyro stabilization, and are designed to keep you out there fishing safely when Alaska weather throws us a curve.  During these three days, we'll target a variety of Salmon, several species of Rockfish and our favorite, the mighty Halibut!  We have strategically placed the Peregrine in the heart of some of the best saltwater fishing in Alaska.  Only a short ride out each day and you'll be pulling fish over the rails.  At the end of the day, you'll arrive back at the Peregrine for an evening of relaxing, eating, and soaking in the on-deck hot tub.  Yep... you read it correctly..... we have a hot tub onboard that will help soothe those aching muscles.  One last activity to close out the perfect day.  How about a beach campfire and a time of relaxing and telling fish stories.  As the sun settles onto the horizon, you'll climb into a clean comfortable bed knowing that you get to wake up and do it all again tomorrow.  At the end of day three, our de Havilland floatplane will round the corner and land in the bay where it will pick up your group along with your totes of tasty fillets.  The scenic flight back to Homer is the cherry on top for this trip.  You have the potential to see black bears munching on alpine blueberries, mountain goats resting on rocky cliffs, and occasionally pods of whales eating schools of baitfish down below.  If you love a variety of fishing and all things Alaska outdoors, this trip is for you.  Just the right amount of luxury and pampering, and all the rod screaming action you can handle.
