Cast and Blast Hunt

Experience the best of Cold Bay in one trip with a guided Cast and Blast adventure — salmon or halibut fishing by day, followed by sea duck, brant, cackler, or goose hunting once the waterfowl season opens. Cold Bay offers world-class salmon runs, productive saltwater fishing, and some of the finest waterfowl hunting anywhere in the Union, with Izembek Lagoon and the surrounding Aleutian coast providing a truly wild Alaska backdrop. Best rough season: salmon from July through early October, with Coho/Silver salmon strongest from mid-August into early September; Cast and Blast is especially strong in the first two weeks of September.

September – October

Cackler Goose Hunt

Our guided Cackler Goose hunts take place around the legendary Izembek Lagoon, one of the world's premier waterfowl destinations and home to one of the largest eelgrass beds on earth. This rich staging area draws huge numbers of migrating birds each fall, including cacklers, brant, ducks, and other geese, making Cold Bay a bucket-list destination for serious waterfowl hunters. Best rough season: fall waterfowl generally begins September 1, with cacklers strong through September and into October, depending on weather and migration movement.
