All Inclusive Elfin Cove Alaska Fishing Package

Day 1

Staying at our relaxing lodge, you will awake to a full day of finishing, Finishing up the day with a warm delicious meal and scenic views all around.

We fish the protected inlets, fjords, and bays around the immediate area. When it comes down to it, it depends on what interests you.

At the end of the day, a few diehard anglers might spend time fishing off our docks for whatever the fish-of-the-day is – normally ‘dollies’; but the average vacationer to Elfin Cove Resort is ready for some rest towards quitting time, and there are always tasty hors d’oeuvres and a hot meal waiting for their return.

Day 2

After a good night's rest, you will be taken out to angler paradise for another full day of fishing. Here are the fish that you should expect to catch on your fishing expedition.

Our area sports huge Pacific halibut ranging from 20 lbs to over 300 lb monsters, year-round; beautiful King Salmon ranging from 20 lbs to over 60 lbs are available year-round with optimal fishing conditions from early May to late June; acrobatic Coho Salmon populate our fertile waters in great abundance from late June through September and average in the 8 to 12 lb range; other salmon caught in our area include Chum (dogs), Pink (humpies) and Reds (sockeye). Chum salmon range from 8 to 20 lbs; Pink salmon range from 4 to 6 lbs; and Reds range from 5 to 8 lbs.

Rounding out our area’s selection of sport fish is a colorful collection of Rockfish, Irish Lords, Red Snapper, Yelloweye, and Black sea bass. Lingcod ranging from 8 to 20 lbs.

Day 3

Waking up to the Elfin Cove coastline enjoy the warm breakfast before embarking on another day of fishing.

Fish aboard one of our 6 boats, ranging from 30 feet to 36 feet. We normally fish no more than four anglers on our smaller vessels and six anglers on our larger vessels. These boats are fast and have plenty of room which makes for a fun and productive fishing experience. 

Our fishing gear is generally 8-1/2′ Shimano and Lamiglas rods with Shimano reels, for salmon sport fishing and flexible 7′ Penn rods with Penn reels for halibut. This equipment assures an exciting and productive sport fishing experience. The terminal gear is all top quality and each night all the lines and leaders are checked to make sure they are in good shape for fishing the next day. Nothing is more disappointing and avoidable than losing a fish due to poorly maintained equipment. We like to stack the cards in our guest's favor when it comes to quality gear!

Finish your day off always with tasty hors d’oeuvres and a hot meal waiting for their return.

Day 4

Last day of fishing enjoy a full day on the water with our Professional fishing guides.

Our professional fishing guides are all seasoned sport fishers who enjoy getting our guests into the bite! There is nothing more satisfying than having each angler hollering out in tandem ‘Fish On!’ It's music to our ears and it happens quite often during most fishing expeditions. 

The prevailing fishing strategy is to locate schools of bait fish, normally swarms of birds are a good indicator, and if hunting for salmon we troll or jig. When fishing for halibut we normally jig.

Halibut are voracious feeders and will even chase schools of migrating salmon. They are tremendously powerful and pose a real challenge to your arm strength. Even small halibut will give you a run for your money.
