Fishing SE Alaska

Hello,
The kids are finished with college and the wife and I have decided
to enjoy life a bit. We've decided on SE Alaska, late July/August.
Prince of Wales looks intriguing, but having never visited the area
so do all the other islands

I would appreciate any tips,pointers on selecting lodging, guides,
equipment
etc. After a bit of a web search the possibilities are overwhelming.

Thanks
DE

Here's a link to my trip report from my stay at Island Point Lodge near
the town of Petersburg.

I was there during the last week of August 2003. Island Pt Lodge does not
cater to fly fishers but I signed on with a fly fishing guide who
organized a group trip. http://www.flyfishingarts.com

It's a no frills option. Food is decent. Cost is very cheap compared to
other lodges. If you are comfortable doing a little hiking and being
responsible for your own boat (18' Lund Alaskan aluminum deep vee) you'll
have more fun and catch more fish. You can take the boats at when you
want. Go fishing after dinner if you want, etc. This is only one man's
experience. YMMV.

it twice now. thanks again mu...
