All of our custom Willie river boats, as well as our other vessels have plenty of dry storage available to store any of your valuables and extra layers. However, it is nice to have a quality dry bag anywhere you travel in AK, keeping your gear dry is a nice piece of mind. We provide everything needed for fishing each day but you are required to bring along any food or drink. The cooler below is the perfect size for a person or group and easily fits within the boat without being cumbersome.
This is a question I receive everyday from our guests. Wearing or having each of these pieces below will cover you for 98% of the time while out on the water, anywhere in Alaska. A person can certainly add a piece to this section but I would not delete anything from it. It is always better to be more prepared, you can take off a layer, but you can never put one on that you do not have. Anywhere within Coastal Alaska from Mid May to September a person can expect high 40's and rain to low 60's and sun. Having gloves and hats that you may never use can save a day, adding something like sunscreen will come in very handy after bing in the sun for 14 + hrs in the land of the midnight sun.
Your favorite ball cap and beanie will do here, nothing special just something you enjoy wearing, or ask your guide for a company hat and represent while on the water and in the pub.
Only one option in Alaska. Amber colored polarized lenses. You can wear them 20 hrs a day and your eyes will love you for it. Costa Fantail Pro sunrise silver mirror polarized for a smaller frame mid size face.
