WELCOME TO RIPPLE COVE CHARTERS.
There are three reasons you’ll rave about Gustavus...
The first is the terrific fishing. More halibut is caught here
per sportfishing angler than anywhere else in Alaska. We also have a terrific silver salmon run (and are close to
great ling cod, rockfish, and king salmon grounds).
The second is that we fish in relatively protected waters. We fish in the Icy Straits which has mountains on two sides with various islands in the middle. In the five years
we’ve been in business, we’ve never cancelled for weather. Guests remark at how calm the water is the majority of
the time.
The third is that you are within moments of fishing when you board the boat. You can use your precious
time fishing, not getting to the fishing grounds.
There are lots of charter businesses in Gustavus. We hope you select Ripple Cove Charters.
As you’ll see when
viewing our website, we have large new boats. It’s always nice to be comfortable while fishing. We also have
Alaskan captains, as local knowledge is essential.
Our upscale lodge, the Fish-R-Inn, opened in 2006 and provides
you with all the comforts of home with gourmet, Cajun- inspired cooking. The Flight Deck, our second lodge, will
open late this summer. We pride ourselves in keeping our rates low. Over 60 percent of our customers return each
year or every other year.
We are flexible when booking trips. You can choose a 3, 4, or 5 day combination fishing/ lodging package. You can
even stay an extra day or two if you’d like to view Glacier Bay National Park or to fish in some of the local rivers.
We also offer daily fishing trips for those of you staying locally. Our captain(s) will work with you to target
the fish you’re after, whether it be Giant Pacific Halibut, Acrobatic Silver Salmon, Huge King Salmon, or
fascinating Ling Cod and Rockfish.
We hope to see you this summer. We are now taking reservations for the
2008 season.
