Photo de stock - Commercial charter boats lined up in storage for the off-season in Sitka, Alaska, USA.Fishing in Sitka! Believe it or not, Sitka is America's largest city. The town of 9, 000 counts the whole of Baranof Island and beyond within its city limits, making it 25 times the size of New York. With such staggering beauty and bountiful fishing found all around the island, we can hardly blame them for wanting to claim it all. The fisheries of Sitka Sound alone are enough to give most port towns a run for their money. Sitka fishing charters take full advantage of this, targeting monster Salmon, Halibut, and Lingcod while keeping an eye out for the area's incredible wildlife. . . And it really is incredible! Whales, seals, and sea otters splash in the cool Pacific waters, while bald eagles swoop through the air above. Local conservation centers like the Fortress of the Bear work to protect this wildlife, caring for orphaned bears until they can be released back into the wild. Sitka also lands more King Salmon than any other port in Alaska, and their Halibut and Lingcod are almost as good. Add in freshwater fishing for Cutthroat Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Dolly Varden, and we're surprised there's any room for the people!.
