My Dad and 2 other guy pairs loved to discover this WW2 big runway but NO cruise ship dock in this tiny town of YAKUTAT.

We flew all day from SJ to SeaTac to Anchorage and then turn around back down to YAKUTAT. Alaska Airlines service up there reeks, sending our bags out to the end of the Aleutians and stealing our flash frozen 50# boxes of fish.

It took years to find the best halibut and salmon fishing guide in the Southeast, Capt. Mark Sappington.
Very professional and eager to catch ,not just wet lines with drunken "stay and make it pay".
You pay full price and full tip for no catches all day, in that weird state of Alaska!! So many fishing guides that are substandard!! Beware.

And we stayed in lots of expensive dumps, usually run by alcoholics.
So I highly recommend Leonard's, unless the dentists are there steelhead fishing the Situk River.
The location on the main harbor is better than the cannery harbor place.
The food is good; this is very important as it can get very cold and rough just offshore. Bring lots of Bonine seasick pills !!
