About Our Alaska Float Trip Program

We offer three different float trip packages these are our Fisherman's Deluxe, Standard Deluxe and Intimate River style float trips. Availability depends on the particular river you choose to float with us, on some waters all three service levels are available on others due to accessibility and logistics only what we call our "intimate rivers" version is an option. 

Each of these options offer a different level of service with the least expensive being what we have come to call our "intimate rivers" package utilizing smaller rafts, expedition style tents, and fewer amenities then the two deluxe trips and should be considered as an 'roughing it' bare bones style trip, comparable to what most other operators offer as standard Alaska float trip fare. 
 
Our two deluxe trips, the "Fisherman's Deluxe" and "Standard Deluxe"  We also call them our "Deluxe Alaska Lodge Style Float Trips" Because the accommodations are like no other you will find on an Alaska float trip anywhere. Accommodations on our deluxe float trips are in spacious, high quality tents made right here in Alaska. for Alaska conditions. Each of these tents is used to house two anglers in which you can stand in comfortably and come equipped with cots, sleeping pads and chairs. This provides you ample space for your gear, as well as a comfortable retreat should the weather become inclement. Also on these trips are our custom built large gathering / dinning tent capable of holding the entire group for dining or as a gathering area. All guests are welcome to hang out in this common space for drinks, fly tying and socializing. Other comforts such as available hot showers, toilet facilities and other little touches that make an Alaska Rainbow Adventures deluxe trip a cut above all others. 

Where the two deluxe trips differ is that on the "Fisherman's Deluxe" trip there is a two to one guest to guide ratio with two anglers and their guide floating the river in custom built drifter rafts each equipped with custom frames that have casting stations front and rear allowing for an exceptional angling experience. There is also an additional gear-boat that carries much of the camp gear and the majority of bags. Of course we still spend as much time as possible wading for fish. The additional guide/camp hand also assists in the setting up and taking down camp and assisting where necessary with guiding duties. The drifter rafts, being lightly loaded and equipped with anchor systems are able to thereby access almost any run on the river much like a drift boat and are highly maneuverable as well. 

Our standard deluxe float trips offer the same camping amenities but no gear / bag boat or extra camp hand and a two or three to one guest / guide ratio depending on overall group size. These float trips require some participation and group effort. Your participation with unloading the rafts, moving camp gear and taking down sleep tents each morning is greatly appreciated. Each day anglers will rotate guides enabling everyone to fish with each member of the staff.

Our Togiak, Alagnak & Moraine trips are standard deluxe trips with the fisherman's deluxe package available as an option. All three levels of service are available on our Goodnews River float fishing trips, and the remaining waters are "Intimate Rivers" style adventures some with an option to upgrade to an deluxe style trip possible.

The Alaska fishing season is relatively short running from June into late September on the rivers we offer trips on in the Bristol Bay region of Alaska and from mid May until late September in South-Central Alaska. This season revolves for the most part around the life cycle of the five species of pacific salmon which arrive in Alaska's rivers at different times not only through the season but at periods that can vary from river to river. This availability of the salmon and whether they are pre spawn, actively spawning and dropping eggs, or post spawn can strongly influence the behavior of resident species, the rainbow trout, grayling and char and their availability to anglers in a particular watershed as they follow the life dance of the salmon. This very availability of the salmon and what they are doing goes far to explain how a particular week one season can offer average fishing yet the same week the next year or even week can be epic!
