EnglishWhat Fish Can You Catch on a Sitka Point Charters Trip?
Updated
Sitka Point Charters targets three main species out of Sitka, Alaska: Alaska salmon, Alaska halibut, and lingcod. The lodge and charter operation fishes the deep waters of the Northern Pacific near Sitka, and its website organizes fishing content around those three species plus dedicated pages for fishing seasons and fishing locations. If you want to know exactly which species is best during your travel dates, the site's "Fishing Seasons" and "Where We Fish" sections are the places to check.
The three target species
| Species | What the site says | Why it matters for planning |
|---|---|---|
| Alaska salmon | Covered on a dedicated "Alaska Salmon Fishing" page | A headline catch; the site also publishes Alaska salmon recipes |
| Alaska halibut | Covered on a dedicated "Alaska Halibut Fishing" page | Described as world-class halibut fishing; recipes page also exists |
| Lingcod | Covered on a dedicated "Alaska Lingcod Fishing" page | A third named target species alongside salmon and halibut |
The site describes the offering as "world-class Alaska Salmon and Alaska Halibut fishing," so salmon and halibut are the two species it leads with. Lingcod appears as a third dedicated species page, which signals it is a regular part of the catch rather than an afterthought.
Where you're fishing
The operation is based at Sitka Point Lodge, described as sitting on the shores of the Pacific Ocean about five miles north of downtown Sitka. Trips run on the Northern Pacific in what the site calls the "deep and plentiful waters of Sitka, Alaska." The site maintains a "Where We Fish" page for specifics on fishing grounds, so treat that page — not a general map — as the source for locations.
Timing your trip around species
The site has a "Fishing Seasons" page, which is the correct place to match a species to a month. The homepage does not state which months are best for salmon versus halibut versus lingcod, so don't assume year-round availability for all three. Before booking, check:
- Fishing Seasons — for when each species is targeted
- Where We Fish — for the grounds used
- How We Fish — for method and gear context
- Season Rates and Day Charter Trips — for trip formats and pricing
What's included with the fishing
Per the site, all-inclusive packages cover the required licenses and stamps, fishing tackle, and wet weather gear, and the crew cleans, vacuum packs, flash-freezes, and boxes your catch for the flight home. Meals, transportation, and lodging are also included in the package price. That means you don't need to bring your own rod, reel, or rain gear for the fishing itself — though the site has a "What to Bring" page worth reading for personal items.
Practical next step
If your goal is a specific species, call or check the seasons page before committing to dates, since the site presents salmon, halibut, and lingcod as distinct fisheries rather than a single interchangeable catch. The site's own framing — "all you have to do is show up and enjoy your Sitka fishing experience" — applies once your dates line up with the species you want.
