Page 71 - Travel Guide Fly Alaska Edition

Based in Wrangell, Tight Line River Tours
invites you to experience the thrilling
adventures of Southeast Alaska waterways
by guided jet boat. Enjoy incredible
freshwater fly or lightweight tackle fishing
for salmon and trout with owner/operator
James Benedict. Raised amid the guiding
business in Wrangell and independently
plying the waters of the Interior for several
years before returning to Southeast Alaska,
James promotes the management of fishery
resources using catch and release methods.
Fly fishing technique can be instructed for
clients seeking a new challenge, and most
tackle is skillfully handcrafted by the owner.

A comfortable ride on a 6 or 15-passenger
jet boat can also take you deep into pristine
Alaska wilderness where the possibilities
of seeing bears, eagles and playful sea life
such as whales, sea lions, seals and otters are
likely. The goal at Tight Line River Tours is
your exhilarating freedom with fishing pole
or camera lens on fishing and sightseeing
tours of the Stikine River and the magnificent
LeConte Glacier, winding to the sea among
snow-covered 4000-foot peaks to calve its
icy blue offspring. Black Bear
