Alaska
X-treme unguided fishing camping,
cheap fishing trips in Alaska
$1900pp Sun-Sat
These
remote camps are located in several prime locations depending on the time
of year and the species you wish to target. The river camps offers 4 anglers per week world class
fly fishing or spin fishing for ocean run salmon-trout & char the average
angler can expect to catch 10-20 fish
per day, with experienced fisherman landing 20-30
a day. A healthy resident
Rainbow & Char population make for some added fun.
These trips work great for families and groups of old friends who just
want to have a great fishing trip on a reasonable budget. The camp
has no staff just your group so if you think you have what it takes to be
X-treme than this trip is for you. The comforts at the X-treme camp include
weatherproof bomb shelter sleeping tents with cots and air
mattresses a kitchen tent with folding chairs and complete cooking set
with dishes and all food for the week.
The fishing in this part of Alaska has a prehistoric appearance and is
nothing short of exhilarating. If you want to fish for wild runs of
Salmon , you found the right place. We have access to 5
separate river and lake camps all located 50-75 ft off the river,
which offers unlimited fishing till sun down if you have the extra
energy.
The rivers are
fairly small to Alaska standards. It's just right to throw a full fly
line. An 8 wt with a couple of sink tips, and a spare floating line
will work just fine for the week. If coming
 in
June, many anglers choose a 7wt, since the water conditions
are much lower. A mixture of glacial gravel and cinder bottoms creates a
safe home to these giants. The fishing is varied, with large
traditional holding pools and mixed pocket water available. Commonly
used fly patterns are large brightly colored Purple, Pink and Black
Marabou Streamers for the salmon, as well as Egg Sucking Leaches for the
trout. Egg patterns work well for the Char & Dollies using a 7wt fly
rod and a floating line.
Fall
Trout or Silver Salmon unguided fishing Trips
The fall
fishing in August & Sept features some awesome fly fishing over
ocean bright silver salmon and trophy rainbow trout. The salmon average 12-14lbs with giants caught up
to 20lbs each fall. If you like traditional fly fishing over very
aggressive
bright fish, this is the place for you. All of our fishing is
100% catch-n-release for these truly wild rainbows but you can keep your
legal limit of salmon. During the
fall we get frequent storms that can move through with rain and high
winds, No whiners allowed . This time of year only true
fishermen
looking for the best wild salmon & trout on the planet need join us.

Travel to this remote part of Alaska is fairly simple since Alaska & Peninsula Air
has daily flights down the Peninsula
originating in Anchorage connecting in King Salmon. You will need to make
arrangements with Alaska adventures or your your
local travel agent to arrive in King Salmon on the start day
of your trip by 10am. You will then transfer to
Branch river air charter for the 30 minute flight to your remote camp.
All guests will have to
fly to Anchorage or King Salmon the previous day and spend the night to
catch the early morning flight with Penn air. At the end of your
trip we will return you to the local airport in King Salmon and you will
catch a return Alaska Air or Peninsula air flight to Anchorage getting in
around 6-7pm. Due to the commercial airline schedules, many
guests may wish to stay over again in Anchorage catching a morning
flight back to their home airport. If for any reason you miss the
flights to Port Moller, you will have to charter your own flight, or wait
until the following day in King Salmon at a hotel at your expense.

Weather on the Alaska Peninsula
The weather in this part of Alaska is unpredictable, and during the
fall season it can vary from rain to sleet with high winds. Be mentally prepared for the worst,- everything else
will be a bonus. During August the average daily temperatures range from
50-60 degrees with a few real nice days reaching the 70's. Morning
temperatures can dip into the mid 40's. Everyone should pack and dress
accordingly with layers of Polar fleece and a good rain and wind shell for
the outer layer. Don't forget a warm hat, gloves and sleeping bag.
Expect
it to be windy as the average wind blows 5-10mph. Some days the wind can top 25mph. This does not slow us down as
we have gotten used to it. Be prepared to make adjustments in your fishing
techniques. If planning to fly out to one of our other remote
camps. .
Dining Out with Alaska Trophy
 We
take this phrase to a whole new level. Casual attire is appropriate
as the standard dress code is polar fleece or jeans with your favorite
head-wear. The resident Chef/guide, is a culinary magician your resume reads like
a who's who in world wide fine Bush dining. Our Appetizers
before dinner compliment the menu that includes fresh steaks, grilled
halibut, baked Salmon, Grilled lemon pepper chicken, Italian or Mexican
night and my favorite Barbequed baby back ribs..
Most meals are
served family style with all you can eat being a standard table fare. Our
breakfast include wild blueberry pancakes, 3 egg ham-Cheese Omelets,
French toast, hot biscuits and gravy or fried eggs- bagels and bacon or
sausage. We always have Cold cereal fresh fruit/bagels and
lots of hot coffee & cold juices if you prefer a light
breakfast. It is amazing what mouth-watering surprises come forth
from this humble kitchen in the bush. Acclaimed restaurants in cities
around the world would be envious of our fresh grilled salmon and halibut
diners. And don't forget our home made bush desserts that include
cherry or
blueberry cheesecake,

Mandatory trip Cancellation and Travel Insurance Recommendation:
A fishing expedition will certainly offer you an exciting and rewarding experience. Unfortunately, however, one undertaking such an angling adventure must face the possibility that you or your fishing companion might be forced to cancel your trip at the last moment due to illness, injury or other emergency or sustain an unfortunate injury and require medical services or worse, medical evacuation during your trip. Trip cancellation and travel insurance can help protect you and your travel companions from these unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances. We
can book your insurance through Travelguard, a major, reliable insurer of traveling anglers. Typically, the cost of an extensive program is less than
$150 per angler. It is wise to always consult with your personal health insurance provider before undertaking any type of travel to determine what is covered in the event of injury or illness during your travels.

Charlie---The
food, lodging, boats, guides and scenery were all outstanding.
Or did it just seem that way because I experienced the hottest
rainbow action of my life on the Alagnak? The sockeyes, big
grayling, and a couple of lakers added variety, too. I'll
recommend your operation to anyone who loves fish but dislikes
crowds.
