Bus Bergmann and his capable assistant, Hayden Copeland, are well known for their superb float trips in southwestern Alaska. A maximum of six anglers float two per raft, each with a guide. Their high percentage of repeat clients perhaps tells the story best. Bus and his small staff are keen boatsmen and talented fishermen; their knowledge of the river combined with top-notch meals, quality equipment and unwavering enthusiasm result in a fine wilderness adventure. B&B uses three 16' Avon Professional rafts. Each carries equipment, two anglers, and a guide. These oar-powered rafts with custom anchoring capacities allow the opportunity to fish any section of the river. Fishermen alternate bow and stern positions. The Kanektok River supports one of Alaska's most abundant fish populations with all five Pacific salmon, sea-run Dolly Varden, and resident species including lake trout, Arctic char, Arctic grayling and rainbow trout.
Accommodations
A six-man tent has proven itself outstanding through years of use on B&B's float trips. Two anglers share this roomy tent, allowing a 6' ceiling and enough room to keep all your gear inside. A sturdy aluminum cot with a comfortable ground pad will insure warmth and a good night's sleep. You will look forward to a propane heated hot-water unit and bathing tent providing a hot shower on the river. Each campsite will have a designated area, away and private from the camp, with a portable toilet unit. A free-standing cook tent with tables and director chairs offers a roomy gathering area for meals and swapping fishing stories.
