Boats, Barges, and Bush Planes
“Facilitating wild experiences for people and providing the best trip possible is what motivates us. There’s no task too tall. The challenges we face in order to operate our lodges in Alaska’s fly fishing paradise are a breeze when these goals are in mind… This way, our guests can enjoy unexpected luxuries at our fly fishing lodges deep in the Alaskan wilderness without having to worry about how their Diet Coke arrived there in the first place.”

Fly Fishing for the Soul
Fly fishing in Southwest Alaska’s Bristol Bay Watershed is not the type of experience that gently wakes you up from your slumber and complacency. Like the aggressive and unapologetic native fish that swim its rivers, this raw and unspoiled landscape shouts to its visitors “Wake up—this is what it means to be alive.”

“Sky-lined on a remote mountainside, stands the best kept secret in Alaska. A quaint timber-framed lodge, constructed of materials entirely imported from Finland, overlooks the meandering banks of the Copper River. It’s at this lodge, appropriately named The Ridge, that four to six anglers per week can have one of the premier experiences that Alaska’s Bristol Bay region has to offer.”
