At Whalers' Cove Lodge you have the option of fishing on your own through our Canadian Style Packages.  The difference between the Canadian Style and Fully Guided package is that you do not have a guide/captain guiding you from the same vessel you are on.  We recommend this package for the experienced boater.  All of our Canadian Style Packages are all-inclusive as with our Guided Packages.



  Canadian Style customers utilize one of our 18' Klamath welded aluminum boats that are equipped with video fishfinders, downriggers, survival and first aid kits, a radio for communication and a full array of fishing tackle including three different types of fishing rods to cover the variety of fishing available at our lodge. 

  Upon arrival at the lodge, key staff members will assist in showing you to your assigned boat, take you through the operation and emergency procedures, talk over the array of tackle and aid in rigging your rods with what the fish are currently hitting on.   The "Fish-Master" will also direct you to the current areas where the guides are fishing.  As mentioned above, there is a radio onboard your vessel which you can use to contact the "Fish-Master", lodge or guide boats to assist you if you need any help trying to locate and catch or land a monster, which happens a lot at our lodge.

  If you would like to have a guide on your initial day or throughout the remainder of the week, we can provide one, upon availability, for an additional fee.  We will do all we can to aid you in having the fishing vacation of a lifetime!!!

  All of our vacation packages are all-inclusive.  All inclusive at Whalers' Cove means that your price includes transportation from Juneau to our lodge and return, meals, lodging, daily guided fishing for our guided packages, modern fish processing including vacuum packaging and flash freezing to your specification, daily room service, fishing equipment, bait, rain gear, rubber boots and hip waders.

  • Fish at your own pace; leave the dock late, return at any time.
  • Early morning or late evening fishing.
  • Targeting a species or touring the region. You name it! You're the captain of your own vessel.
