Please call one day before your trip for last minute instructions and your final destination. Our guides choose to fish on one of two rivers, depending on the action. Allow yourself 2 hours driving time from Anchorage, one hour from Wasilla, giving you time for road construction projects and a coffee/pit stop. The drive is on well maintained roads and easy to navigate. Great site-seeing in Wasilla area after your fishing trip.

We do not provide transportation to the boat launch area.
