Our "Fishing Extreme" Deluxe Float Trips - Alagnak River
One of the things about floating with any type of raft that is loaded down with camping gear and anglers is that they do not allow you true access to all the available water that a smaller lightly loaded raft can get to.
Therefore
we now have available an option that provides for each two guests a guide with a custom built inflatable drifter raft. This is a specially built raft with casting stations front and rear, an anchor system that allows it to hold stationary in almost all water on the river, maneuverable enough to scoot across or back up some runs (perfect for mousing big bows on the Alagnak!!) allowing great access to the best water. We can do this because the boats are first off specially built to do just this and are only lightly loaded with lunch, beverages and essential gear you need for the day.
All other gear will be carried to pre determined camp sites on one of our cargo boats and camp will be pre set* by a camp helper before your arrival and taken down each morning after you have packed for the day (On days we actually move locations). This differs from our regular deluxe Alagnak trips where you travel on board rafts with all your gear the camp gear and your guide and you assist setting up and taking down camp and stop in areas the loaded boat is able to access and stop. This option does cost more as there is a lower guest to guide ratio 2 to 1, more boats, and additional camp help so expect to pay a premium per person for this service vs. our regular deluxe Alagnak river float trips. This seven day and six night Alagnak river float puts you on more water and more fish then you would sitting on the gear raft and you get our famous deluxe accommodations in our traveling Alaska tent lodge. No one but Alaska Rainbow Adventures offers you this exceptional level of service in an Alaska float trip, even most lodges can not touch us for pure fishing time on the water and the access these inflatable drift boats offer. Alagnak River Fishing Extreme Alaska Fishing Package for the serious fisher - Minimum of four passengers but able to handle groups of up to eight anglers. Call today 877-235-2647
*Occasionally for safety and for taking advantage of exceptional fishing the gear raft will stay in proximity of the drifter rafts so camp may be set up at locations of opportunity. When those are determined the camp helper will still set up camp it will just not be pre-set up before your arrival.
Our Deluxe Alaska Lodge Style Float Trips - Togiak* & Alagnak** Rivers
Our Alagnak and Togiak river trips are 'deluxe' trips by default. On other trips the deluxe options can be added at extra cost
We
call them "Deluxe Alaska Lodge Style Float Trips" Because the
accommodations are like no other you will find on an Alaska float trip
anywhere. Accommodations on the deluxe
Alaska fishing lodge river float trips are in spacious, high quality tents
made right here in Alaska*. Each of these tents is used to house two anglers. This provides you ample space for your gear, as well as a comfortable retreat should the weather become inclement. We also provide cots and sleeping pads, a welcome luxury after a day of fishing.
On many fall trips those that that start after September 1st is a custom built 10 x 20 dining tent that can be heated and is capable of holding the entire group for dining or as a gathering area. This tent is also extremely weather resistant, made in Alaska for Alaska's extreme fall conditions. All other Alagnak and Togiak trips for now continue to have our well tested convertible dining tent that allows us to get out of the wind, rain or bugs. On the deluxe trips we also offer hot showers while on the river for that fresh have not been fishing feeling just remember to
ask your guide and he will set this up for you.
On our deluxe trips state of the art 18' catarafts or self bailing rafts from the largest producer of whitewater craft in America are utilized to get you safely down the river in comfort. Each raft is equipped with a custom rowing frame, floor, and for angler comfort, padded high back seats.

*Some Togiak river trips in 2010 & 2011 use a lighter different brand
of sleeping tents of a similar size due to weight restrictions.
**Moraine Creek / Alagnak combination trips are
also 'deluxe' trips.
Our 'Intimate Rivers' Alaska float trips
Our Intimate rivers program encompasses a couple of ideals, one is travel to smaller streams that offer a more intimate overall experience, but involve traveling lighter and with less gear then on our deluxe trips that we offer on the Alagnak and Togiak rivers. Sometimes this is due to the river not having direct access by a lake or just because of the size of the stream is such that the larger rafts used on our deluxe trips is not practical.
Some of the rivers we offer intimate rivers trips on are Moraine Creek**, American Creek the Talachulitna, Koktuli and Stuyahok rivers. We also use this program to explore new waters which are often trips suggested by previous guests during conversations around the campfire. Some possible trips for the upcoming season may take us North of the Arctic Circle to Northwest Alaska for Huge arctic char and the Tarpon of the north “sheefish” (Call for additional information if you are interested in participation one one of these special exploratory trips!).
Remember these are unscheduled custom trips, on smaller less traveled streams. We usually need at least four guests to get one of these on the schedule If you are traveling alone or have just two anglers in your group and you can be flexible often we can combine groups to put a trip together. These trips allow you to get up close and personal with trophy salmon, trout, char and other species on smaller streams and are as always, provided with the same personal service and attention to detail that has long been a hallmark of an Alaska Rainbow Adventures Alaska fly fishing float trip. Minimum of four passengers but on some trips we can handle groups of up to twelve anglers. Call today 877-235-2647
** On occasion due to logistics when operating in remote Alaska our Moraine creek trips are outfitted with our deluxe trip accommodations. This is always the case on our Moraine / Alagnak combo trips. Call for details 877-235-2647.

Bear Viewing & Photography
At certain times of the year we offer two to five day bear viewing photography trips on select waters; These trips offer the serious wildlife photographer more time and flexibility to get the photograph of a lifetime. You have more time on the river, less disruption as we use no motors on our float trips to disturb the animals and there is no need to pack up and leave right when the light gets right because you are camped on the river when the bears are most active.
