I've only fished Silvers out of Yakutat, but Mr. Vedder raves about the halibut fishing there. I don't know about Chinook fishing that time of year and the bag limit may be quite restrictive. If I recall correctly SE, which includes Yakutat on the north end is a one Chinook per day and five per year.

Check with GBL on this.

Remember to add in fish packaging costs, skipper and crew gratuities, shipping fish home, etc. which will up the ante. Those late May-to mid-June rates offer a great value, especially if you can catch Kings as well as halibut, lings and rockfish.

Flying from Seattle to Yakutat is another advantage.

If you could add a third fishing day to the three night package, that would be ideal.

Not many of us can hold up to five days reefing halibut, lingcod, and rockfish even from shallow water like 100 feet.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to research the weather patterns on the Gulf of Alaska that time of year.

Bob of Piscatorial Pursuit is highly rated so check out options there.

If it were late August, early September and Silvers were your goal, there are so many options, it is hard to choose.

I like Ravencroft Lodge at Fildalgo Inlet that can be reached from Valdez or Cordova, but there are transportation costs to consider on top of the lodge stay.

It is self guided, great people, good family style food, and excellent fishing. I like it so much that I went there three years in a row.
