Considering an Alaska Float fishing experience?

Posted on May 24, 2024March 7, 2025 by guides@akrainbow.com

When considering an Alaska fishing experience, it’s essential to determine the type of adventure you seek. Are you interested in an experience that blends exciting daytime fishing with vibrant evening social scenes? Or do you prefer a more focused angling experience, spending a  week immersed in fishing activities? Perhaps a combination of both experiences would be ideal for you. 

Our guided fishing excursions promise an exhilarating experience, offering the chance to reel in Salmon and Trout during the day. But that’s just the part of the journey; getting there is an adventure, with a scenic flight to the river on one of the area’s float plane operations to the river, adding to the excitement.

Picture yourself relaxing at a cozy campsite, sharing tales around a crackling campfire with a small group of like-minded individuals or your loved ones. You’re surrounded by stunning wilderness and diverse wildlife, having spent the day reeling in a potential fish of a lifetime. As the night sets in, you retire to a spacious, sturdy Alaskan-made tent, complete with comfortable cots and chairs designed to withstand Alaska’s rugged weather, ensuring your safety and comfort.


Whether it’s rain or shine, or even both at the same time, a fishing trip in Alaska is a unique experience. With an abundance of fish, on average more than anywhere else in the world, every day promises an unforgettable angling adventure. However, nature can be unpredictable – from late fish runs to changing water levels and weather, occasional delays in planes, freight, supplies, and guest arrivals can occur. Rest assured, we take these events seriously and are fully prepared to minimize any inconvenience to you.


While we can provide most of the gear, it’s often best to bring your own familiar equipment, such as a rod and reel setup and a sleeping bag that fits. Rest assured that we have your back should you need something.

Alaska fishing has remained great here because most of it is not easily accessible. Where we go is as far off the beaten path as you can get in the region.”


Join us for a Multi-Day Wilderness Alaskan Float Fishing trip and create memories that will last a lifetime.

About Us

Step into the current with Alaska Rainbow Adventures and you're stepping into the real Alaska — not the polished lodge version, not the brochure fantasy. For more than three decades, we've run rivers the way they're meant to be run: the Kanektok, Goodnews, Alagnak, Moraine, Arolik, and Togiak. Wild water. Wild fish. Country that doesn't bend for anyone.

This whole thing started with one guide, Paul Hansen, chasing the kind of days that get under your skin and stay there. A mouse‑eat in the half‑light. A bend in the river no one else will see that day. A rainbow flashing in the sun like it owns the place. Those moments hit you in the ribs and remind you why you came north. That feeling is the reason we're still out here.

Our trips are built the way Alaska demands: small groups, real wilderness, and gear that holds up when the weather decides to test you. Big tents you can stand in. Hot meals cooked beside the river. Guides who know every braid and every mood swing these waters can throw. With exclusive USFWS permits and miles of river to ourselves, every float is unhurried, unfiltered, and honest.

This isn't a vacation.
This is the real deal — take it or leave it.

It's a week where the noise drops away, the river calls the shots, and you remember what it feels like to be fully present in a place that doesn't care about your inbox or your deadlines. You don't just fish here — you feel the country in your bones.

Come see what's waiting for you!
