My banjo- playing friend, Kurt Abel,and who many of you know,  is a fishing guide in Alaska during the summer.  Have a blast while helping out a musician…this could be the trip of a lifetime. Take your instrument.

Ok, let's figure out how to get you  up to the land of fish, fish and more fish!

Below, I've listed rates (discounted by 20% from the posted rates) for you and/or any folks you'd like to bring up this summer. Rates for kids under 16 are lower yet.

3 days/3 nights     $3000           
4 days/4 nights     $3520
5 days/5 nights     $4080
6 days/6 nights     $4560
7 days/7 nights     $4800

Our packages are all inclusive from Juneau and, unlike elsewhere, also include all local taxes and gratuities to lodge staff. Bring a camera, show up, and we'll handle the rest!
 
Delta Airlines is once again flying into Juneau, out of San Jose. While they only arrive / depart once daily (9:15pm / 6:00am), the roundtrip fare is pretty great at $390.
 
I need help getting guests for the month of August. I'm thankful that we have so many guests already booked in July, but for the life of me, can't figure out why more folks have decided to pass on the best month of fishing that our area offers. The silvers are everywhere in August (the daily limit is 6!), halibut are running thick, and with the number of Kings predicted to be coming this year, they're going to be around as well. The weather is normally better in August, too!
 
Anyway, I'd sure appreciate any help you might be able to offer in solving this predicament... too many fish and not enough guests to catch 'em.
