Any of the above tours can be purchased individually, but for the full "Peeler" experience, we recommend a fully customized 4-5 day schedule. Fly into Petersburg, we will pick you up from the airport and drive you to your accommodation. For the rest of your trip we will give you our time and a fun and exciting week full of a mish-mash of activities to your pace and liking. An example of this week could be:

Day 1- Salmon fishing from the boat with a couple hours of whale watching.

Day 2- Hiking Cascade Creek trail with a fire on beach afterwards to cook lunch.

Day 3- Boat up the epic Stikine River and explore sandbars and a natural hot springs.

Day 4- Enjoy quaint downtown Petersburg and then take a drive out the road for some nature walks or sport fishing.

Day 5- Visit LeConte Glacier, see a sea lion rookery, and then watch the birds on the River Flats.

The Vision

When we go and visit friends in another state they make time for lunch, or an event, etc.. However; like most, they have work obligations to get to and that's just how it goes. When friends come and visit us up here in Alaska, that's a different story! We like to combine work with play! We block off an entire week and fill it front to back with as many adventures and outings as we can feasibly fit in or as many as you desire. That's what we hope to create for this business. We want you to experience this area the way that our friends do, and in the process become your friends too! We have land use permits all over the Tongass National Forest so we will be able to go ashore almost anywhere we please. We can go for a hike on another island, see whales on the way, and then afterwards have a bbq on the beach while you cast for salmon.

*We have a 28' twin inboard jet Weldcraft with a bathroom and heated cabin. Perfect for beach landings (we have a ladder off the bow), fishing, and running up shallow rivers.

*Groups up to 6, with a 2 person minimum.

*Fishing gear, tackle, and bait will be provided by us. You will just need to get a fishing license from the Scandia House hotel downtown or at the local hardware store, Hammer & Wikan.

*Southeast Alaska can have beautiful bluebird days, but since we do live in a temperate rainforest, we are always

prepared for rain! So bring some light rain gear, boots, sun glasses, hiking gear, and of course your fly rod if you like.

*Zach's a big coffee guy so the boat will always be stocked with plenty of it. We will have soft drinks to your preference and snacks. Depending on what we choose to do each day, we will bring lunch and/or the goods to cook a lunch out there.

*Lodging/accommodations will be arranged by us if you choose to do a multi-day package.
