Bring a camera, take lots of pictures and enjoy the Alaskan wilderness. And take the longest trip possible. A single day just leaves you wanting more.

Dress warm and be flexible with your schedule, the weather can turn on a dime, especially on the water. Captain Jack will keep you safe, but itโ€™s up to you to be prepared in case the weather gets cold or rainy.

On our half day charter, we rode 2 1/2 - 3 hours through choppy waters just to catch our limit of small Halibut and a few cod. The boat is small especially with 6 people, the captain and first mate. The boat did have a bathroom but it didnโ€™t flush.

Know that you can buy an inexpensive styrofoam cooler from a local sporting goods, grocery or general store โ€” and save significantly by taking the cooler with you on your flight home. Remember to keep the cardboard box when you buy the cooler! The airlines wonโ€™t check the styrofoam cooler unless itโ€™s enclosed in a cardboard box.

Read up on the flossing technique before you go. Itโ€™s not hard but it takes a bit of practice to get fluid with it.
