Both fresh and saltwater activities may be conducted from "The Bear Necessity", new to us in 2001, is a 53' Yacht equipped with full accommodations for multi-day, overnight excursions; and the Stikine Spirit, a 26’ jet boat used for day trips navigating fresh water rivers and streams. The Stikine Spirit may be used in combination with the The Bear Necessity's multi-day excursions.

We also utilize various smaller boats, depending on the type of trip or activities.
On the saltwater fishing trips, we offer great opportunities to catch huge halibut as well as King salmon, Coho salmon, pink salmon, ling cod, red snapper (yellow eye), and many other types of cod/rock fish.

Freshwater fishing trips may include rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, Dolly Varden (char), grayling, steelhead trout, Coho salmon, pink salmon, chum salmon, and sockeye salmon.
These various types of fish, and fishing, can be combined, depending on the length of trip and the time of year.
We are equipped with spin casting, fly fishing, and all saltwater gear. All we need is you.
Call us before you cast off with anyone else! Experience the "Reel" Alaska!
