Alaska Salmon Shark Fishing
Salmon Shark / Lamna Ditropis - (5 person max)
We target Alaska's most powerful & unique game fish in many of the remote protected bays that Prince William Sound has to offer. Salmon Sharks are cousins of Great White's & Mako Sharks, & they follow the millions of wild salmon that return to PWS each year to spawn. Some of our fishing locations literally have hundreds of Sharks gorging on salmon near the surface. The visual spectacle is sometimes incredible, as these apex predators launch themselves out of water while chasing salmon. Sharks typically range between 250-500 lbs., but can get nearly twice as big in size! They are also one of the fastest fish in the Sea, which is why we use top quality gear such as Avet Reels, which are the best in the business. Long grueling battles are the norm on these Sharks, as they have been compared to the fight of giant Marlin. This sport fishery is still being pioneered, & there are only a handful of boats in Alaska with the proper knowledge & gear to successfully charter for these Sharks. This is serious Big Game Fishing- involving Guns, Bang-sticks, Harpoons, Gaffs, Knives, large Hooks, & Big powerful Sharks! The Shark limit is currently 1 per day & 2 per year- per person, & they make excellent table fare (when properly cared for) which taste's similar to Swordfish. We will Bleed & Gut your fish immediately upon harvest & keep it cool all day. Back at the dock after photos, it will be expertly butchered, skinned, filleted, & Jaws removed. This will yield you approximately 150 lbs. of fine white meat fillets. We do promote Catch & Release of these unique game fish if filling the freezer is not your goal. Salmon Shark fishing is truly an unforgettable Alaskan experience!
