Fishing Alaska’s Inside Passage

By Alaska Boardwalk Lodge
Sunday, May 15th, 2005

Sportsman’s News

May 2005

Catch Pacific salmon
Walking along the banks of one of the many freshwater lakes and streams close to Alaska’s Boardwalk Lodge, you watch as a bald eagle floats almost effortlessly against a backdrop of deep blue sky. Our guide walks the other side of the stream and spots yet another great fishing hole. Out of the corner of your eye, you catch a glimpse of a fish breaking the surface to catch a midge, and suddenly, you get a sense that you are here not as an intruder but as an honored guest. For a moment you feel a little guilty thinking of those who would appreciate this experience, but only for a moment.

Off the Boardwalk

By Alaska Boardwalk Lodge
Sunday, February 15th, 1998

Business Traveler

February 1998 – By Lori Lincoln

All addicts have their own code, so at first I was baffled listening to the anglers debate the merits of matching the hatch versus purple egg-sucking leeches and woolly buggers while we snacked on fresh oysters.

I’d only arrived at Boardwalk Lodge by float-plane a half an hour before, and already I was caught up in a heated debate about why steelhead bite or don’t. Over pre-dinner cocktails, I’d met a few frustrated fishermen who had logged hours on the local rivers and had nothing more to share than tales of nips on their flies.

"This trip was one of the nicest trips I have ever been on. As a trip to bring customers, it was a great use of sales budget and if customers like to fish, it is perfect."

- Francis "Butch" Mickus, Washington
"The vacation my family had at Boardwalk Lodge was absolutely the best we have yet to experience. We were there a week and not one of the four of us wanted to leave. I can't wait to go back for a longer stay!"

Top Reasons to Book Boardwalk

All Inclusive. From gourmet dining to the finest fishing gear, the Alaska's Boardwalk Lodge adventure is all-inclusive from our dock. Your stay includes professional guides for freshwater fishing as well as USCG trained captains for saltwater fishing excursions, plus a support staff to see that your needs are met.
Lodge Acclaim. The lodge receives praise from clients and media alike each year. Our exceptional staff and facilities have been recognized with three "Lodge of the Year" awards — recently including the Sporting Classics 2010 Lodge of the Year honor for worldwide fishing destinations.
Nearby Waterways. Lodge guides have easy access to some of the hottest fishing holes in Southeast Alaska. Boardwalk guides are licensed for 23 lakes, rivers and streams on breathtaking Prince of Wales Island, Alaska. Solitary fishing trips are typically accessed by Suburban, so fly-outs are unnecessary.
Fishing Pressure. There is none! Unlike the Kenai and other combat-fishing destinations, fishing in our waterways is peaceful — allowing you to enjoy the magnificent scenery as nature intended. Many of these waters are only fished when our guests venture out, so you to cast and catch in solitude.
Adventures and Eco Tours. When fishing arms grow tired, you can spend a relaxing afternoon on any number of guided excursions. Guided activities include whale watching, kayaking, spelunking, biking and hiking to name a few. You can also visit the bear observatory or tour Kassan totem Indian village.
