THE BEST FLY-OUT TRIPS IN SOLDOTNA

Posted on by soldotna_admin

Very few fishing lodges in the vast state of Alaska can match what Soldotna B&B Lodge brings to the table. Most Kenai Peninsula lodges offer the bare minimum: overpriced fishing, warm meals, and a tiny bed. Soldotna B&B is a family-run lodge that is devoted to providing prospective anglers with ultimate Alaska fishing trips. Not only do we have jam-packed fishing packages with whale watching, bear viewing, and canoe trips, but our prices genuinely cannot be beaten. Our fly-out tours lift our guests to some of the most beautiful locales in the world, including Crescent Lake, Katmai National Park, and Kenai Fjords National Park. It’s not too late to book a once-in-a-lifetime fishing excursion on the famous Kenai River – and hop aboard these three fly-out tours while you’re in the neighborhood!

Crescent Lake – Lake Clark National Park

Crescent Lake never gets old, no matter how many times we visit this natural paradise. This beautiful lake is not to be confused with the stunningly clear Crescent Lake in the Kenai Mountains near Cooper Landing. Depending on the season, you’ll have the opportunity to throw a line in for sockeye salmon, silver salmon, Dolly Varden, and lake trout. The flight from Soldotna crosses Cook Inlet to Lake Clark National Park, taking approximately 45 minutes in total. You’ll land smoothly on the turquoise Crescent Lake in the heart of the Chigmit Mountains. You’ll get a birds-eye view of the 10,000 foot tall Mount Redoubt on the fly-out. A professional fishing guide will greet you upon arrival. Brown bears often feed in the shallow waters on the perimeter of the lake, creating the ideal photo opportunity.

Wolverine Creek

If your goal is to get up-close-and-personal with a majestic brown bear, then Wolverine Creek is the ideal fly-out fishing adventure for you! The water is so clear on this secluded creek that you can see large schools of sockeye and silver salmon. This fly-out trip is quite crowded in the summer months but excessively beautiful in the fall. The 30-minute flight crosses Cook Inlet into the Big River Lakes region. Brown bears, and occasionally black bears, feed in the creek during spawning seasons. Wolverine Creek remains one of more distinctive Alaska fishing trips available.

Bear Viewing and Flightseeing

Soldotna B&B Lodge has dozens of unique packages, many of which include world-renowned bear viewing and flightseeing tours. These tours include a trip to the brown bear-occupied McNeil River in breathtaking Katmai National Park. Depending on the season, you’ll also have the opportunity to fly out of Homer for trips to Lake Clark National Park, Kenai Fjords National Park, Hallo Bay, Kodiak, and Bristol Bay.

Alaska Fishing Trips

Our family-run operation offers dozens of customizable packages for expert anglers, nature enthusiasts, couples, bird lovers, and everyone in between. We treat every guest like family, earning us a 2018 Certificate of Excellence by TripAdvisor. Soldotna B&B Lodge provides world-class Alaska fishing trips with the personal touch of a bed and breakfast and the scenic beauty of a wilderness retreat.

RIVER, SEA, AND AIR!

Posted on by soldotna_admin

When you stay with us at Soldotna B&B and Lodge, one of the most beautiful Kenai River fishing lodges. We offer an assortment of rates and packages. As spring turns into summer, we would like to feature our river, sea and air package.

What Is Included in This Package?

It’s a six-nights-stay that includes breakfast every morning and lunches for every activities day. Your schedule will be filled with hours of fishing! You will experience eight to eleven hour-days of fishing. An experienced guide will accompany you, and you will have a tackle, bait, and gear for charters. When you come back on-site, you will have access to all cleaning, commercial vacuum packing and freezing of your catch. Each guest also receives two fish shipping boxes and complimentary use of rain gear and hip boots for charters if needed.

Where’s the Fish?

Kenai River fishing is known worldwide for its abundance of fish and the enormous sizes they can grow. Though fish in the Kasilof River is somewhat smaller, they are still very abundant. It is an all-around quieter experience, as there are fewer people so you can fish peacefully. The Kenai and Kasilof Rivers have four out of the five species of Pacific Salmon that return to spawn each season in Alaska, as well as rainbow trout, Dolly-Varden, and Steelhead. Peak times for Rainbows and Dollies are the last two weeks of June and mid-August through October. The Kenai and Kasilof River both offer Alaskan trophy catches for you to bring home.

The Lower Kenai

The lower Kenai River can get quite busy during peak season, and power boats are allowed on that section of the river. If you would rather avoid the commotion, you can always fish along the beautiful Kasilof River. When you go trophy rainbow trout and, or Salmon fishing, you will also be able to take part in a wildlife tour in the middle of the Kenai River. Experience Halibut and Salmon fishing out of our Homer! We also offer a float plane fly-out for fishing and, or bear watching including a spectacular picturesque glacier fly-over. Why wouldn’t you stay with us at Soldotna’s, for a once-in-a-life stay in one of the best Kenai River fishing lodges!

As your boat rocks you back and forth, you cast a line that you had meticulously baited only moments before into the water.

NOT YOUR TYPICAL SPRING BREAK

Posted on by soldotna_admin

Spring break season is in full swing once March rolls around. Many will be packing swimwear and heading down to tropical sunny spots and beaches consumed by crowds. Rather than pushing your way through the shoulder to shoulder crowds and baking in the sun, take your trip north to Alaska. Our Soldotna fishing charters are at the ready to give you an exceptional spring break experience. 

Change It Up

Not everyone is about the large crowds, loud music, and partying all week. Sometimes the best getaways are a calm day out on the water. Surround yourself with the Alaskan wilderness and cast a line. Reel in some incredible catches while enjoying the lapping water under your boat. Unlike the beaches in places like Florida and Cancun, you will have plenty of elbow room and not need to worry about rowdy college kids scaring all the fish away. 

Better Than Palms

Though palm trees and ocean breezes are what most think of when they bring up spring break, the panoramas in Alaska are nothing short of breathtaking. Find yourself surrounded by beautiful mountain views, incredible bodies of water, and local wildlife that will leave you in awe. From towering moose to all of the incredible varieties of fish you have the change to pull in. There is an endless beauty when you head out on our Soldotna fishing charters. 

An Unforgettable Experience

By spending your spring break in Alaska with Soldotna Bed and Breakfast Lodge, you will be stepping out of the status quo and into something extra special. This will be a trip you will never forget.

Make Memories

When the two of you are out and exploring with your guide, snap some fun pictures of your excursion. Once you return home, you can then take those photos and add them into a memory book.

What’s in the Water

Alaska has exquisite wildlife and panoramic views that will take your breath away, but the true stars are the fish. Alaskan waters hold some of the best trophy fish and challenging catches out there. Fishers can catch several types of fish including but not limited to King Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Silver Salmon, Red Salmon, Pink Salmon, Rainbow Trout, Northern Pike, and Steelhead Trout. The waters are full of monsters just waiting for you to reel them in.

Seasons for Everything

The fish are always swimming, but there are certain seasons that fish are more plentiful and more likely to bite. The primary fishing season runs from May to October with the peak season for finding the broadest variety of fish being the end of July and early August. In the spring and summer months you can go out with Soldotna fishing charters for some offshore fishing, have a guide take you out fly fishing, or fly out to get close and personal with the secluded wilderness. In the winter months, when the waters freeze over, you can head out for some ice fishing.

Guides to Get You There

Though Alaska is full of beautiful picturesque scenery and postcard-worthy panoramas, it is equally as dangerous. This makes it essential to have a professional guide that is seasoned to the ever-unpredictable wild that is Alaska. Guides can get you where you need to go safely and know where the best fishing spots are. So that you successfully catch those monsters, fishing guides can give you tips on techniques and tricks. They are an essential part of a trip, no matter what experience level you are when fishing in the Alaskan wilderness.
