WHERE AND HOW to find Fly Fishing in Vancouver, Anchorage, Ketichan & Juneua on an Alaskan Cruise?
We are on a cruise and in each town for over 6 hours. We want to find out where to go and what to bring to catch river trout? Moreover how find and arrive at the best spots?
So we need info & recommendations on all the following
Transportation? RENT A CAR?
What gear to bring?
What Clothes to bring?
Where to find a Guide?
Where to find a Tackle shop?
Trout or salmon? The salmon pretty much jumps out of the rivers at your feet this time of year…
Have the conceriege on the cruise arrange this for you. They will have existing contacts. There are dozens of guides in the area.
Bring your rod and own gear. It is cool, but not cold this time of year.
Renting a car will take too much time and is very expensive in AK.
Stick w/ the guide. Have them take care of the tackle.
Expect your request to be pricey under the short time you are at each site.
