As always, we had a great time fishing. Everyone took excellent care of us and we caught great fish; you can’t ask for a better experience and a better organizer than Angling Unlimited (guess that’s why I’ve been fishing you all for 11 years!). It’s a terrific time, just too short. If you get a chance, please thank everyone in Sitka for us. We had a great time and everyone at Angling Unlimited made it a great time.

Enjoyed our trip very much! Everybody was so helpful and friendly; that made the trip. Bill caught lots of fish. The weather was rainy and cold but what can you do? Thank you so much for helping us through this. The memories are priceless!

Just thought I would send you a note to let you know that everyone had a great time on our trip to Sitka. The staff was great and our ten rookies on the trip were extremely impressed by all aspects of the operation. There is a very good chance we may have 100% return rate for next year, and may even need to look into increasing our group size based on the reaction we have gotten.
Thanks,
Dave Messenger

We had a great time. Your crew makes it look so easy. I know it’s a lot of work and we really appreciate the world class accomodation. Chuck, thanks for another great trip. You put us on the salmon like always. Matt, you are the spin doctor. Every bait…perfect. Greg, thanks for the extra effort in the halibut hole. Look forward to fishing with you again someday. Lexi, we had everything we needed, all the time. Thanks for your hard work and great smile. Everyone, thanks for your hard work. It does not go unnoticed.

As is every year, we can’t stop talking about our great experience with Angling Unlimited. Our thanks and love to you all. See you next year.

Our trip was fabulous and better than all of our expectations. I think we learned a little bit better of how to prepare for seasickness and cold hands when we come next time…haha! We want to come back and would most definitely request to be with Ben and Nate (if they are still a team). I think Ben is a great fit for our family and hopefully he agrees. We grilled some halibut tonight and it was so good. We’ll keep in touch.

A successful day in early August with Captain DJ.
I wanted to express my appreciation to the whole gang for making this one of the most memorable and enjoyable fishing trips in my life. This is meaningful because over the years I have done a lot of fresh water fishing including more then fifty drive and fly-in trips throughout western and northern Ontario. You have made the transition a snap. Fishing was excellent, but equally important note is the knowledgeable, hospitable, friendly and hardworking manner in which the staff carries out their duties. Specifically, thank you to Aleta, DJ and Andrew for the memories.

To me what makes AU special is the people that make up AU. The fishing is unbeatable, some times harder than others. But it’s called fishing not catching. The Captains (all of them) are always trying to find the fish. The staff is always trying to do everything you could want and always a smile. I want to thank Capt. Chuck and deckhand Andrew, for some great fishing, Ken for processing and packaging our catch, the girls for their smiles and driving us around, the fish processors for their professional way in which they handled our catch and Sue for all her help with our bookings and other things. After 8 years of fishing with AU you would think that things could not get better, but they do!
The fishing was exciting, the waters calm, the captain, deck hand and hostess were outstanding. Hook It and Cook It was priceless! Sitka has to be one of the prettiest places on earth. A word to all that visit Sitka: leave a tiny part of an afternoon to “tour” the town of Sitka and go to the Raptor Center. Learning about the history of this part of our country and gaining knowledge about the bald eagles was too good to miss.
Angling Unlimited has to be the best fishing service and outfitter in Alaska

Tom,
Just a brief note to pass along a few kudos to you and the crew. Doug and I agreed that Angling Unlimited has to be the best fishing service and outfitter in Alaska. Every detail is attended to; from the 1st class equipment you use to the attentive and cordial personnel. We had a terrific 3 days with you last week and just wanted to write and let you know.
