A roll roll away bed can be added to your room for an additional guest if needed. Each room has a private bath and daily maid service is provided. Look forward to enjoying delicious meals in our spacious dining room. Our outstanding Alaskan chefs prepare a wide variety of local cuisine for you to sample. We also have an upstairs lounge with satellite television and wireless Internet. After a fantastic day of fishing you can download your photos and swap stories with other anglers while enjoying a cocktail in front of the fireplace.

The staff of the Kodiak Sportsman's Lodge will greet you at the Old Harbor Airport upon your arrival. We will transport you to the lodge, check you in, purchase fishing licenses, listen to a quick orientation and then enjoy a wonderful dinner. For your convenience, the lodge provides a shuttle service to and from the boat harbor although you may choose to walk, as the boat harbor is just a short distance from the lodge.

Kodiak Sportsman's Fishing Boats

At Kodiak Sportsman's Lodge we utilize four custom-built aluminum catamarans 25' and 28' long by 10' wide. Each boat is five star Coast Guard rated, with full walk around cabins, fitted with twin engines, full marine heads, complete enclosed seating, complete electronics, top of -the line Loomis and Lamiglas graphite fishing rods, Shimano reels and all lures and bait. We have a few spinning outfits for the river fishermen, as well as a few fly fishing outfits available for use, but do not provide flies and generally recommend that you bring your own fly fishing gear. We fish 4 people per boat, with four individual downriggers and at least 100 square feet of fishing cockpit. We also have new jet boats for fishing our streams. Anglers will fish at least 8 hours per day, weather permitting and all of our captains are coast guard licensed. Gortex rainwear up to size 3X and 18" knee boots up to size 14 are also provided at the lodge.

What Species Of Fish Are Available?

May 1st through June is the trophy King season. Thirty to ninety pound Kings feed in these waters. We will troll for Kings using down- riggers and herring bait but don't be surprised if you land a big halibut while trolling. In 2006 we caught many fish over 60 pounds with the biggest being 75 pounds.

July is one of the best months to catch a variety of fish; King Salmon, Halibut, Ling Cod, Gray Cod, Yellow eye, Black bass and silvers. Along with some of the best weather in July, you will also have some stunning wildlife viewing opportunities.

In August the Silver Salmon are running with an average weight of fifteen pounds. Some of the largest silvers in Alaska are caught within 15 minutes of the lodge. The best method is trolling with the down riggers. After you catch your limit of salmon, get ready to catch some halibut, ling cod, yellow eye or black bass.

And September is a great month to end the summer, not only are the silvers hot in the salt water but the rivers have some great action with the fly or spin rod. Again you always have the bottom fish to load up your fish boxes.

Kodiak Island Sportfishing for Salmon:

We troll for 30 to 90-pound king salmon with down riggers and light tackle. The peak trophy King Season runs from May 1st thorough July 15th, but they're here all year long- Our 2002 anglers landed kings weighing 82, 80, 75, 74, 71 and 70, with over thirty other kings over 60 pounds. In 2003 the largest kings were 77, 75 and 73 pounds. Ten to 22 pound Silvers arrive in early July and are fished in much the same way we fish for kings.

Kodiak Island Sportfishing for Halibut:

Halibut are available all year, although best from June 1st through mid September. They are so Plentiful that we often get them while trolling in 30 feet of water for kings. The Sitkalidak area has some of Alaska's best halibut fishing with all sizes available in shallow (30' to 140') waters with very light currents. No deep-water fishing in heavy currents, with pounds of weight to get to the bottom.

Other Fishing:

Our area is also abundant in bottom fish such as snapper, Black rockfish, bass and the biggest lingcod you've ever seen. Old Harbor Lodge offers spectacular fishing for fly fishermen and spin anglers as well. Our fresh water creeks start receiving Dolly Varden in June Pink salmon in late July, Chum salmon in mid-August and silver salmon in late August. Mid-August through the end of September will provide you with more action than you could have ever imagined.
