Overview Of Some Of The Most Fulfilling Fly Fishing Outings In Alaska
By Trevor Price
Ultima Thule Lodge

Featured in the National Geographic's Ultimate Alaska issue, Ultima Thule Lodge is renowned for its luxury service, knowledgeable staff and experienced bush pilots. The lodge is fly-in only and located in the expansive Wrangell-St. Elias National Park.

The lodge can arrange almost any type of day trip, but a lot of their focus is on fly in Moose Valley. However, if your interest is fishing, make sure you book in advance to get there during the peak salmon migration period.

The company sets itself apart from other lodges by offering a range of activities, making it a great choice for an extended stay, family trip or corporate adventure. Side trips include glacier stops, white water rafting, skiing, or wilderness hikes.

That said, if you're looking for a more rustic experience, you may want to look elsewhere as Ultima Thule provides a more pampered or luxury Alaskan experience.

Sadie Cove Wilderness Lodge

Sadie Cove Wilderness Lodge is situated right in the middle of the beautiful Kachemak Bay, an area known for its fishing. The eco-lodge uses wind, hydro and solar power, and prides itself on being one of the greenest hotels in the country. Its amazing systems and accommodations have been featured in National Geographic, Forbes' Traveler, the Discovery Channel, ESPN, the Network and more.

Rates are fairly reasonable at Sadie Cove, however they do charge extra

for privately chartered or fly-in Alaska fly trips. That said, their peak summer rate of four hundred dollars per day includes all your daily meals, use of all the lodge facilities (like the sauna), equipment, housekeeping, wireless Internet and even an on-site pool.

Drifter's Lodge (907-595-5555)

If you want a more rooted, natural and rustic experience, Drifter's Lodge can offer it. The lodge is well-known and still comfortable, but much closer to the true Alaskan experience. They've been featured in The Lonely Planet, Time magazine and on the Discovery Channel. The bulk of their fly is during the fall trout season.

The lodge has on-staff guides who know the Kenai River, know the fish patterns and are able to assist you to find great locations and choose the best flies and casting techniques to catch your fish. They focus on techniques for rainbow trout, Dolly Varden trout and Alaska salmon, and are able to plan some of the best Alaska fly trips available.
