Island Alaska Fishing & Hunting Trips with Kodiak Combos
NEWS
Our
world-class Kodiak Island hunting and fishing is located in Old
Harbor Alaska, notably one of Alaska's best salmon and halibut fishing
destinations and definitely one of the world's best places to hunt
Sitka Blacktail deer and Kodiak brown bear.
Kodiak Combos
offers you the unique opportunity to combine Sitka Blacktail deer
hunting with halibut fishing, seaduck hunting or king salmon fishing.
Kodiak Island has the highest density of Sitka Blacktails in the
world. The largest bucks on record were taken from this island.
Fish here for salmon in the 50-60 pound range, jig for shallow water
halibut, or hunt exotic seaducks. Your guide is a life-long resident
of Old Harbor who allows you to capitalize on the overlapping seasons
to maximize your once-in-a-lifetime trip to Alaska.
Your skipper and guide is a US Coast Guard licensed and insured
captain who was born and raised on Kodiak Island in the village
of Old Harbor. Growing up on his father's fishing boat and owning
his first boat at the age of 13 makes him one of the most experienced
charter skippers on the island. A former US Marine, Jeff understands
the importance of being on time and providing you with a top notch
service. He resides on the island and works on the waters year-round,
giving you unequal fishing results. Jeff provides food for his family
from subsistence hunting and fishing.
Accommodations are modern and private with your own bathroom. Meals
are local cuisine, halibut and salmon along with whatever your diet
requires. After dinner you can walk through the Alutiiq village.
The people are friendly and the atmosphere is laid-back.
Trips are out of a fully-equipped 26 ft. SeaSport, "The Refuge
Rock" set up and tricked out for fishing success in remote
Alaskan waters. It has a commercially rated diesel engine "the
latest high tech Volvo D4 mated to a Volvo DPH outdrive" professionally
installed by Kodiak Diesel in 2008 to take you to the fishing grounds
in comfort. The "Refuge Rock" is loaded with all the modern
electronics including: VHF marine radio to communicate with other
boats and US Coast Guard; Iridium satellite phone to make those
important arrangements; GPS electronic chart/plotter to help keep
us on course; Radar to show us where other boats are in the fog;
color sounder to confirm water depth and fish. The main engine is
a reliable diesel. Trim tabs provide a smooth and level ride when
the waters get choppy. An inflatable raft with a Yamaha outboard
is used to ferry guests to shore and back. The boat has a dinette
with seating for 4 and a V-berth with seating for 1 and seating
behind the captain's chair for another. An enclosed private toilet
is also onboard. If fishing has taken it all out of you, the V-berth
is a great place to lay down and rest your back until we call you
back on deck for another round of fish fighting!
Our fishing gear includes: Folding cushioned deck chairs, Electric
Scotty downriggers, custom Accurate fishing reels, G.Loomis rods,
two speed Avet and Shimano reels, Owner Hooks, Aftco Gaffs, Fraball
Nets, Grundens custom rain gear tops and bottoms, Luhr Jensen spoons
and flashers, specialized glow squids and every other lure you will
need during your trip. Don't worry about bringing tackle, we have
it all!
