1/2 Day Walk And Wade Flyfishing Trip

Our summer single 1/2 day float & wade trips take place up in the town of Willow, AK, a beautiful and scenic hour and fifteen minute drive north of Anchorage. We are the closest consistent fishing location to Anchorage! We have taken our knowledge & experience that comes with multi-day Alaska fishing trips and focused that talent into our 1/2 day Alaskan fishing adventure! Since our guides are local fisherman first we know when & where to catch fish on the Alaskan road system. With a beautiful drive just an hour and fifteen minutes north of Anchorage we have access to some of the best fishing in the state no bush plane needed! We will meet you at a local Willow favorite coffee spot- Lead Dog Espresso - and get you geared up for your trip. From there you will follow your guide to the first spot of water you will be fishing. These trips are great for guests of all ages and skill levels! We've taken folks as young as 4 and as old as 94 out on our trips! Once you're at the river, your guide will chat with you about your experience level and if needed do a hands on fly fishing 101to get even the most novice angler ready to expertly land some fish. After the fly fishing 101 you'll head down to the river and start casting and catching! Depending on how a certain area of water is fishing, the guide may have you follow them in your vehicle to another spot on the river. From rainbows to salmon we can show you how to handle some of Alaska's best water in a day! Our trips can begin as early as mid to late May and run through September 30th & just like anything in Alaska are at mother nature's whim. The rivers we guide on are the tributaries of the Susitna river systems. Based on which rivers are fishing the best, FishHound will supply our customers with the fishing gear they need (license's & parking fees excluded) from quality waders & boots to rods, reels, line & even flies at no additional charge! We realize that most folks who are doing these style of trips may be new to it & would have no idea what to bring, so we take the guess work out of it- right down to having back-up ponchos and rain gear for our guests.

Full Day Heli-Fishing Flyfishing Trip

There is no greater access to Alaska’s wild rivers than via a helicopter! We run heli-fishing trips on multiple rivers throughout Southcentral Alaska, which is easily accessible from the Anchorage area. Our single day heli-fishing trips provide an amazing remote Alaskan river experience with much more ease than what you can accomplish on the road system. This is an opportunity to get out to nature, with no one else nearby and quickly start casting your fly in our amazing Alaskan tributaries, which are flowing with fish! This is a perfect trip for folks who want a wilderness trip/experience but don’t want to spend their whole time in Alaska in one remote location. Most trips depart from the beautiful town of Talkeetna in the shadow of Denali. Denali provides an amazing view as you are flown out to some of the most phenomenal fishing in Alaska. Depending on the time of year we target all 5 species of Pacific salmon. Huge bruiser rainbow trout are always present as well as Arctic grayling and Dolly Varden. Just like all our trips all fishing gear, tackle, food and drinks are included in the price of the trip except a fishing license which is easily purchased from the state. These trips can even be booked fairly last minute but more notification is always better when involving air travel. Please feel free to call or email to find out more information on these amazing trips!
