"I've fished all my life...had my own boats...but I have never had a more enjoyable time than we had at Shelter Cove Lodge. The operation is first class in every respect. We caught BIG FISH and our guide was the greatest. Anyone who wants the very best fishing experience in all of Alaska must, must fish with Shelter Cove Lodge. All of our arrangements were taken care of by the Lodge. The float plane ride was outstanding! Our catch flew home with us and arrived in perfect condition. Shelter Cove Lodge delivered just as they said they would. It was a totally worry free experience."
