In 1984, Sharon and I set out to provide fishing and hunting trips to refresh and restore Busy Executives.  Our first base of operation was a 200 acre camp, my parents helped establish in 1960.  We were located in the town of Soldotna on the Kenai Peninsula.  We floated past McDonald’s and  battled thousands of other fishermen. (I read that on high fish days there could be as many as 8,000 fishermen per day on the Kenai River alone!)  Finally, we moved!  Hint...Buyer beware if you are looking at a crowded Kenai River trip offer!

Lake Clark was better fishing for awhile, it was beautiful and away from the crowds...back to the way Alaska was when I was a little boy growing up.  How excited we were to get away from the crowds and over fished waters. Soon other lodges began appearing.

Lake Clark was the answer for many years.  However, the politics of sport fishing pitted us against native issues, commercial fishing, and subsistence netting.  The introduction of Federal and State Park Systems brought about an endless series of regulations enforced by zealous Park Rangers.  Eventually there were more enforcement agencies than fish!

Several summers ago, all Alaskan Salmon fishing was closed to the sport fishing and lodge owners in the Bristol Bay System.  People planning trips a year prior were clamoring for refunds and caught in a problem not of their doing.

Once again, like the Alaskan Migrant Caribou, we moved to greener tundra. We currently stage fishing/hunting trips from our best lodge yet, The Holitna River Lodge.  We are strategically placed in the “Heart” of Alaska. There are no other lodges in our area!!  We bought a lodge on the Holitna years ago & upgraded it surpassing our prior luxury facility at Lake Clark.

We now have a 2,200 foot runway for our Cessna 185 and our Super Cub, 3 duplex cabins, 4 private cabins, 20 boats, a beautiful garden and a big “Alaskan” main lodge.  Our cooks, pilots and guides continue to give you that warm Alaskan hospitality!  Yes, we have hot and cold running ladies...oops!  I mean water.    We are about as remote as you can get.  The fishing is outrageous!  Click here to see all the varieties of fish and details about each that our area offers. Many times we go all week on our river system and do not see another boat.

We provide river and raft trips to new and often untouched waters.  Yes, it is harder to get to the Holitna Lodge, but it is truly an Alaskan Adventure!  The best news is our prices!!  20 years ago we charged $2,500 for a week of fishing.  I believe that our 2009 year special is better than our original $2,500 fully guided Alaskan Fishing Week!  The special includes one or more of the following: Scheduled fly-outs, River Raft trips which are a $1,000 dollar value themselves, Reduced pricing on flights to the lodge from Aniak/Red Devil,  and Guided fishing and gourmet grub from our beautiful Holitna lodge.  In part this is a  big "Thank You" to the many, guests we have fished over the years. You can see why they keep returning! Call for special pricing.

From the Owner......"I have been part of Alaska since 1957.  Many incredible changes have taken place since the 1950's.   I want to take you back to the way it was when I was a young man growing up in wild Alaska.  Hunt the way the natives hunt!  Fish in waters where the fish have never seen a lure!  Challenge yourself to an unguided hunting or fishing excursion at rates that make sense.  This lodge is perfect for any outdoorsman!"
