Angling Unlimited and Sitka – The perfect fishing combination.

Sitka
Sitka has the highest catch rates for king and coho salmon on the marine waters of the North Pacific. Great Sitka Halibut Fishing from May thru September, lingcod, the occasional salmon shark, and three other species of Pacific salmon – you’ve got the kind of constant action most fishermen only dream about. We have open ocean and protected inside waters to fish on a Sitka Fishing Charter.

Throughout the season, Sitka area waters hold the possibility of a white-hot bite that will keep you telling stories for the rest of your life. But, one great day of Sitka Fishing on a Sitka Fishing Charter does not make a great destination – especially if you fly in the day after. When you step off that plane, one thing is for certain: You can’t be here yesterday.

It’s the day in, day out high level of fishing and our excellent standards of service that keeps our customers coming back season after season. With Angling Unlimited, you don’t need to be here yesterday. From May until September, today will do just fine. Angling has the perfect Sitka Halibut Fishing Charter or Sitka Salmon Fishing Charter for you!

Angling Unlimited Style
Angling Unlimited brings a passion for light tackle Sitka Sport Fishing to these waters. Our methods are hands on and our tackle as light as you like. Our captains are knowledgeable and experienced and our boats are custom built for the job.

We mooch for salmon. You hold the rod. You feel the bite. You set the hook. You don’t wait your turn while someone else sets the gear in downrigger, drives the boat around, yanks the rod from the rod holder, then finally gives you a chance to crank. Sitka salmon are densely schooled feeders and mooching is not only more fun, it’s more effective.

We supply the highest quality tackle from G.Loomis, Penn, Shimano, and Islander. We’ve pioneered the use of circle hooks for salmon in order to dramatically reduce hooking mortality while catch and release fishing. We have light spinning rods and fly rods if you’re looking for a greater challenge.

Your Day on the Water
It begins with a friendly wake up call at 4:15 AM. You choose from a wide variety of breakfast in your private room or suite

Our van picks you up at the suites at 4:50 AM for the three minute ride to the dock. You arrive at the dock just before 5 a.m. and depart immediately. King salmon in Sitka, AKYour snacks, beverages, and lunches will be aboard, your boat is underway at 5 o'clock sharp. We know you’re eager for that first hook-up. Running time to the grounds varies from 10 minutes to 90 minutes. An hour is average.

We fish a full day, returning to the dock between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. We don't live by the "limit them out and get them home" philosophy. If fishing is red hot, we'll catch and release to keep you on the water and do what you came to Alaska to do—fish. You'll have a deckhand and a captain on each boat so you and your catch will get the attention deserved.

Our captains know what's happening on the grounds. We have excellent communication between our boats and with other friendly competitors. Still, it's your day. If the ocean is too rough for your tastes, let us know and we'll fish the calm inside waters. If you'd rather catch and release salmon than move on to halibut—we're well equipped with the best light tackle for making that fun and challenging. If you'd like lunch in a quiet cove so you can enjoy the silence of the saltwater wilderness, let us know. We customize each day to your interests.

Back at the dock in the afternoon, we immediately go to work on custom cutting, vacuum sealing, and Chincook salmon group photofreezing your catch. Our drivers will take you back to your lodging immediately or you can feel free to hang out and watch us process your fish. We do all fish cutting, vacuum packing, and freezing at our own dockside facility. The fish you bring home will leave the dock in waxed boxes, packed to airline specifications to travel as luggage, and frozen down to 20 below zero Fahrenheit. We've had fish travel as far as Hong Kong and arrive hard frozen.

After Sitka Fishing, Sitka Halibut Fishing or Sitka Salmon Fishing, you can hang out on your deck overlooking the water for an afternoon drink or get in your car (provided to groups of four or greater) to check out Sitka. Each of our suites has a fully equipped kitchen and barbecue on the deck so you have the added option of preparing your own catch of the day. Or choose from a list of local restaurants.

* Because we customize your trip, you can choose to leave later than 5 a.m. We leave early to get to the grounds first and get the fish when they bite the best.

Dear Tom,

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with you and your group. Our package exceeded your brochure pronouncements and our expectation. And boating a 60+plus king was very exciting. Captain Ryan and deck-hand Nick expertly and patiently coached me through that 35-40 minute exciting encounter. I would probably not have brought that fish in without them.
