We had a great time this year in Yakutat. SH fishing was slow for up there for most. We did fairly well with six landed in a day our worst day and fourteen fish our best day for the two of us floating the river on our own. Those numbers do not count llr's and missed takedowns. Halibut fishing fishing day was six 'butts for four fishermen plus eight rockfish including two Yellow eye. We will not be returning to Yakutat Lodge, driving our own shuttle spotting the boat and trailer adds two hours to the 11 or 12 hour float. Too many hours by the time you shower and eat dinner, I'm too tired to tie much gear. Everthing about the loodge is excellent to very acceptable, but we let them know we would not return if they cannot provide a shuttle for non-guided boats. Overall a wonderful trip! Bill
