Alaska Fishing Tours - Picking The Best

Alaska fishing tours are the best money that you can spend on your fishing trip to the north. You have heard that they have a fish here, called the King Salmon. You have heard that it is often caught at a weight of 50 pounds or more. You are ready to spend a weekend or longer on those waters, searching for your fish. But, because you are a newcomer to the region, chances are that you'll need to find a little help with luring them in. A tour can be the best way to do just that.

Why Take A Tour?

Guided fishing trips are essentially an added bonus to fishing. Just think about it. You are able to get into the water in a location where it has been known that your specific type of fish is lurking. You can often find a guide willing to take you and your small group of friends to a remote location where there is a hot spot for trout. Or, you may find that you just are not good with fly fishing just yet. These guides are more than willing, most of the time, to provide you with a little information about how to improve your skill.

The tour will take you to many of the best locations around the state. You'll also find some of the best salt water fishing right off the southern coastal areas. For your trip, you may want to explore the best known local location to catch the King Salmon or you may be after the trout that are also huge and beautiful.

Where To Get Them

Many of the tourists that head to Alaska do so just for a specific fishing trip. If you are to be one of them, do a little planning before you head out. The best thing that you can do is to plan your trip to the right areas before hand. The good news is that you'll find extensive planning guides online to help you. Visit the state's website and find out where the best Alaska fishing tours are. Your first goal is to find the best location for the type of fish that you are after. Although just about every area of Alaska is teaming with beauties, some areas are more well known for specific types.

Now that you know where you are going, get ready to find the right guided tours offered in that area. You'll also find these available online. Take the time to check out the Better Business Bureau to make sure they are legitimate but then book them a head of time. You should do this because many of them book up months or more in advance of busy seasons.

You will also find a wide range of these Alaska fishing tours available through the lodge that you stay at. These often are an excellent choice for local areas. They can also have a wide range of guides available to take you to nearby locations to fish. Some will take you to the perfect location to find the fish you are after if you ask.

Fishing Guides - Fishing Rod Casting Tips

Fishing Rod Casting



The action of a fishing rod is the behavior of the rod while being cast by an individual. The action of the rod may be the same for all the people who cast with it and it may be different for every person who casts with it. Very few casters cast exactly alike. Their hand, arm, muscular and nervous systems are never exactly alike and they con?sequently perform a cast with a rod differently than any other hand and arm, etc. The action of most rods will react substantially the same for all casters, however. When a rod does not react the same for one caster as another, the action of the rod for each caster is different. That is, a rod may be called a stiff action by one caster and a med?ium stiff action by another, and both are correct. The action of a rod, then, depends directly on the particular caster using it and may vary from caster to caster.



We will discuss rod action as it applies to fly rods, only. The rod actions are only discussed in general terms.



Wet Fly Fishing Rod Casting



WEJT FLY ACTION: Years ago, a ?wet fly action? fly rod was considered to be a rod that was very limber and which bent freely from the grip to the tip. The theory of such limber, soft rods was that they allowed the flies to fall gently into the water and the line to fall straight into the water. Either claim has questionable advantages under many conditions. Gradually, as the years have gone by, fisher?men began to find out that these old ?buggy whip wet fly rods? were actually poor rods for casting the wet fly and that rods suitable for dry fly casting generally cast wet flies much more satisfactorily. Act?ually, wet fly rods are non-existent today except when a maker turns out a poor dry fly rod and sells it to some novice as a ?wet fly rod.?



Dry Fly Fishing Rod Casting



DRY FLY ACTION: There are many ways to build a dry fly rod or dry fly action into a rod. Most of these methods produce good dry fly rods. I will briefly describe some of the better known methods of producing dry fly action in a rod.



HEWITT DRY FLY ACTION: Edward H. Hewitt, as you un?doubtedly know, was considered the best fly fisherman for trout in the world. There are those who are prone to minimize Hewitt?s abil?ities for personal reasons or self glory. However, I have never known or heard of anyone from reliable sources who could beat Hewitt for actually putting trout in a creel. Hewitt used a rod with action or the bending in the lower or middle part but not as pronounced as in the standard Dry Fly action. On a three piece rod, for example, the upper half of the middle section and the lower half of the tip have ?level tapers?, that is, the tapers are slight. This leaves these areas a little stiff. Such a rod has action all over but slightly more of the bending is in the butt section, the lower half of the middle section, and the top half of the tip.



Hewitt action is identical to the Standard Dry Fly action describ?ed below, except that the variations in the ?level tapered? areas are less from a straight taper than the Standard Dry Fly action ?level tapers.?



In one of the last letters from Hewitt, he wrote me that he much preferred this type of rod to all others and that he never was able to wear one out or soften up the action of such a rod no matter how long he use it. This means something coming from Hewitt. He not only had used rods of various types for a great many years but used them a great deal ever year. As always, Hewitt had Leonard make his rods and he always had the highest praised for them.
