Alaska Float Trip - Specials, Rates and Schedule Information

schedule information

The majority of our trips are booked on a first come, first served basis and added to the schedule at that time rather then having a set schedule for the entire season that is except for our Togiak and Goodnews river trips which have set start dates scheduled by the US Fish and Wildlife Service by permit.

This means that the majority of our actual trip start dates are "created by you" the trip participants after discussing what your needs and desires are in a Alaska fishing trip. During this conversation we take into consideration, such things as what river interests you, the dates your kitchen pass from your wife or husband are good for, if you want to catch kings or fall rainbows, and any other factors that may come into play. While we recommend starting your trip somewhere in the middle of the week, actual start dates change as our actual list of trips comes together for each season..

Our trips dates on the Goodnews and Togiak Rivers are fixed by permit, and we picked the best available dates on both rivers! Additional information about those trips can be found at www.goodnewsriver.com and www.togiakriveralaska.com Goodnews start dates for 2013 are shown below, please call the office at 907-357-0251 for Togiak river start dates.

Some of our trips may have folks already booked on them but they are not full we will try to list those here and state that there are "available slots" if there are spaces 'open' that you can book, "sold out" means the trip is full, "wait list" means we are awaiting confirmation and deposits on spaces that have been spoken for, but may become available and you can get on a list in case they do become available.

Keep in mind that we can often also put together trips on dates we may or may not have listed, just ask if you have a particular travel itinerary that needs to be met, we will even help suggest the best location and trip to consider for those dates! So yes, it is best to pick up the phone and discuss the trip you are looking for with us as you will likely find we can accommodate you!

What about gratuities for the guides? The staff and guides are tipped a lump sum that is distributed equally by the lead guide.

Many people are unsure of what is customary regarding gratuities for guiding services. Our rates for trips do not include a gratuity for your guide. Our guides work very hard to make sure your adventure is a success. They strive to make your wilderness experience a more comfortable and enjoyable one. Guides aren't making Wall Street wages so always appreciate any gratuity offered.
