Fishing
and Inside Passage Cruising are based from our new 78-foot custom built yacht,
the Alaskan Grandeur, and the 22-foot Sport Fisher, Seclusion.
Come spend 5 1/2 days aboard the luxury yacht Alaskan Grandeur
cruising the Inside Passage of Southeastern Alaska and Glacier Bay National
Park. The Inside Passage of Southeast Alaska shelters calm waters, with no ocean
swell.
The
adventure can be designed to suit your individual interests. Fly fishing (or
spin-casting) is fantastic in our fresh water rivers for 4 species of Pacific
Salmon, Arctic Char and Cutthroat Trout. Often a strike-per-cast with fly-gear.
This is a great place to learn the art of fly fishing! A different river is
explored each day. Ocean fishing on the enclosed Sport Fisher Seclusion
for huge Pacific Halibut, a myriad of Pelagic and Non-Pelagic Rock fish, and
5 species of Pacific Salmon is a wonderful experience as well. It's not at all
uncommon to be reeling in a 200+ pound Halibut as a Humpback Whale cruises by
while a Sea Otter frolics in the whale's wake.
A portion of the journey can be spent cruising to the Tide Water
Glaciers of Glacier Bay National Park. Only occurring in Alaska, Greenland and
Antarctica, tide waters glaciers are a phenomenal sight. Four Sea Kayaks are
aboard the Grandeur, and provide a delightfully different perspective
to the exquisite surroundings. Wildlife is extremely abundant, and includes
Humpback Whale, Orca, Sea Lion, Sea Otter, Hair Seal, Brown and Black Bear,
and a wide variety of birds.
Glacier Guides operates under U.S. Forest Service Priority Use
