Alaska Fly-Out Fishing. Accessing remote Alaska fishing waters via floatplane will elevate your pursuit to an entirely different level. Since more than 90% of Alaska’s most fabled fishing waters are only accessible via floatplane, getting up in the air opens up a myriad of spectacular fishing options. Mark Glassmaker is proud to offer a number of high-quality fishing trips to the West Side of Cook Inlet and beyond.

All our fly outs are one-day trips originating from the Kenai Peninsula to the West Side of Cook Inlet and a number of other spectacular destinations on the main Alaska Peninsula, Kodiak Island and other remote locals in the South-Central Alaska region. For many, fishing in the remote waters of Alaska is what they came to Alaska to experience: no road systems, boundless scenery, abundant wildlife and undisturbed waters teeming with fish.

We feel at least one day of remote fly-in fishing will help to round out the perfect fishing vacation to the Kenai Peninsula. We recommend our guests take the opportunity to experience at least one remote location and spend some time where there are no roads, and bears outnumber humans! With our own boats waiting for us when we arrive and the finest float planes and pilots available on the Kenai Peninsula, we guarantee a safe, comfortable high-quality experience you will never forget.

Depending on what time of summer you visit, there are sure to be some very exciting remote fishing options available to meet your budget and angling interests. Below we have listed our primary fly out destinations along with run timing, available fishing methods, and costs. All trips include round-trip float plane transportation, experienced, professional fishing guide, boat (when needed), and all necessary fishing gear. Prepare for takeoff!

Full Day Single Destination Trips

The majority of our full day Alaska fly out fishing trips go to destinations on the West Side of Cook Inlet, with the most popular location being Big River Lake, the Kustatan River and Bachatna Creek. For those who want to experience the unmatched thrill of flying in an Alaska floatplane and everything remote Alaska fly-out fishing has to offer in 6-7 hours, these adventures are tough to beat.

With bears, salmon, rugged peaks and shimmering glaciers, The West Side of Cook Inlet is an incredible place. Flight time to Big River Lake and other popular destinations on the West Side of Cook Inlet is a mere 20 minutes, making this the most affordable single destination fly-out option we offer.

All-Day Exclusive Trip

For those looking for the ultimate one-day Alaska fishing experience, nothing can rival chartering a float plane for the entire day and visiting more distant and/or multiple destinations. On these trips, the plane stays with you and can travel much farther distances from our base in North Kenai. This expanded range opens up a number of incredible locations, all within a 2-hour flight radius. It gives you the freedom, privacy and exclusivity to design your own fly out trip of a lifetime.

Of course, flying to and from these incredible fishing destinations is ripe with some of the most memorable scenery in the world including wildlife, mountains and glaciers. A shore lunch is also an integral element of these trips, capping what most would consider a “bucket list” experience.

Below are a few all day exclusive destinations we frequent and depending on the length of the flight, weather, etc., it is often possible to visit more than one destination in the day.
