What Alaskans Wear When Fishing From Boats
Alaska fishing charters can mean cold rain, wet decks, ocean spray, wind, and fish slime. This is the gear Alaskans actually wear on the water.
Rain Jackets for Fishing Charters
Alaskans wear PVC rain jackets because they are warm, waterproof, windproof, and recover from fish slime, fish smell, and ocean spray far better than cloth rain gear. After a fishing charter, you probably won’t want to hike in the Alaska wilderness wearing your expensive GORE-TEX jacket — fish scent can linger in fabric and attract bears.
Rain Pants for Fishing Charters
For a fishing charter, you want PVC rain pants that you can easily slip on for the boat and peel off afterward before heading to dinner. PVC keeps the fish smell, bait slime, and ocean spray on the gear instead of soaking into your everyday clothing.
Waterproof Fishing Boots
Alaska fishing charters often mean wet decks, rain, mud, and ocean spray. We use the Muck Mudder Boot because it is lightweight, waterproof, slip-resistant, and easy to clean after a day on the water.
Neoprene Fishing Gloves
Neoprene gloves are an Alaska staple for cold and wet fishing conditions. Unlike fleece gloves, neoprene stays insulating even when wet, making it ideal for Alaska fishing charters.
Don’t Forget The Important Things
Alaska fishing charters can mean rain, ocean spray, glare, wind, and changing weather. These small essentials can make your trip far more comfortable.
Binocular Rentals $12/Day
When you are on the water in Alaska, you will see a huge array of wildlife, and you don't want to miss a moment. Perfect for spotting whales, wildlife, glaciers, and coastal scenery.
Polarized Sunglasses
Polarized sunglasses reduce glare off the water and improve visibility while fishing. Don’t forget a sunglass retainer — in the excitement of reeling in a halibut, you don’t want your sunglasses disappearing overboard.
Waterproof Backpacks
Ziplock bags are great for phones, cameras, and snacks. For larger items, a waterproof backpack works best.
Sunscreen
Sunlight reflecting off the water can cause sunburn surprisingly fast in Alaska. Don’t forget sunscreen in your duffel.
Motion Sickness Relief
Ocean conditions can become choppy. Many visitors appreciate having remedies available.
Bug Protection
Helpful near rivers, estuaries, and shoreline fishing areas.
