Salt Water Fishing

Great fishing and Alaska are synonymous, and this is certainly the case at Gull Cove. Five species of Pacific salmon, halibut, rockfish and lingcod are in the surrounding waters. From the comfort of the Yakobi, you will troll for king and coho salmon or jig for halibut. The large open deck of the Yakobi is ideal for salmon and halibut fishing and when the weather is wet, you can duck inside to keep dry and see what's cooking on the stove.

Salmon fishing on the Yakobi.   Trolling for king and coho salmon in comfort on the Yakobi can be a real treat.   There are many good fishing spots right near Gull Cove, but with 18 knot cruising speed we can get around the Icy Straits area quickly to explore different hot spots.  The outer coasts of Chichagof and Yakobi Islands offer lots of opportunities to tie into coho salmon and king salmon fishing.


Processing

Back at Gull Cove, your catch of salmon and halibut is filleted, vacuum packed, and frozen for your departure home. Of course, some of the fresh fish is prepared in a variety of delicious ways for your evening meal in the lodge. We will send some of those recipes home with you too.
