Alaska Float Trip Gear List

Alaskan Leopard Rainbow Trout

Southwest Alaska is known for many things; Incredible Salmon runs, jaw dropping wilderness with huge sweeping vistas, bears and other mega-fauna romping around, and Trophy Rainbow Trout Fishing.  All of these and more can be experienced on our incredibly exclusive float trip.  Streams are located inside Togiak National Wildlife Refuge which only has 7 permitted outfitters - imagine a 6 million acre wilderness area (10 times the size of Great Smoky Mountain National Park / the size of New Jersey and Connecticut combined) with only a handful of outfitters and guides!  Each trip is permitted for different dates so we encounter no other outfits or really much human contact of any kind - resulting in the most magical wilderness float fishing experience on Earth.  Take a look at what our guests have to say and come GET AWAY in fishing paradise.
