Alaska’s summer weather is usually wonderful, but it is unpredictable – so every angler should carry a rain jacket. Temperatures range from the mid 40s to 80s. All of our pilots fly using VFR (Visible Flight Rules). Occasionally we are “socked in” by fog or low clouds. When this happens, we fish various rivers reachable by four-wheel-drive and boat.
