ALL-INCLUSIVE WORLD-CLASS SALTWATER FISHING

Fishing around Yes Bay Lodge is defined as an almost religious experience, and for a good reason. Our location is just 10 minutes from the mouth of the Bay, where you’ll find countless species of salmon, halibut, ling cod, and rock fish. We are the only Alaska lodge that features 2-4 anglers per private boat, ensuring you receive personal attention throughout your trip. Discuss your goals with your guide – we are here to help you realize your Alaska dreams! Head down to the dock to meet your guide and head out for your day’s planned saltwater fishing activities at 7 a.m. Your guide will have the day planned out based on your preferences and the fish that are available, choosing to fish for certain species based on tides, location, and weather. Let our guides take you where the fish are always biting, and discover the fishing that Yes Bay Lodge is famous for!

UNMATCHED FRESHWATER FISHING

Setting us apart from many other fishing resorts, Yes Bay Lodge is able to offer guests freshwater fishing, due to our unique location. Our experienced freshwater fishing guides will  provide you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fish our lakes and rivers. Yes Bay Lodge has exclusive permits to nearly two dozen lakes and river systems. Imagine just you and a world-class guide fishing some of the world’s most pristine and productive lakes and rivers, without seeing another soul for miles.

Our vessels

For decades, Yes Bay Lodge used custom-built, canopy-covered Olympic boats. At twenty feet in length and powered by 90 HP Yamaha four strokes, they were designed for two-angler comfort and fishing efficiency. In 2008, the lodge added a beautiful 27-foot Boston Whaler. Powered by twin 250 HP Yamaha outboards, it can get you to the fishing grounds in a hurry and in style!

By popular demand, Yes Bay Lodge has several four-angler vessels in the fleet.  In 2021 and 2022, we started adding Hewescraft 24′ Ocean Pro vessels to our lineup. These boats were such a hit with guests, that we now run Hewescraft exclusively for ultimate fishing comfort and guest experience! These boats are designed to fish up to four anglers with ease and can carry up to six people for sightseeing trips. They are great for families with children, as well.
