Based in Wrangell, Tight Line River Tours invites you to experience the thrilling adventures of Southeast Alaska waterways by guided jet boat.  Enjoy incredible freshwater fly or lightweight tackle fishing for salmon and trout with owner/operator James Benedict.  Raised amid the guiding business in Wrangell and independently plying the waters of the Interior for several years before returning to Southeast Alaska, James promotes the management of fishery resources using catch and release methods. Fly fishing technique can be instructed for clients seeking a new challenge, and most tackle is skillfully handcrafted by the owner.

A comfortable ride on a 6 or 15-passenger jet boat can also take you deep into pristine Alaska wilderness where the possibilities of seeing bears, eagles and playful sea life such as whales, sea lions, seals and otters are likely. The goal at Tight Line River Tours is your exhilarating freedom with fishing pole or camera lens on fishing and sightseeing tours of the Stikine River and the magnificent LeConte Glacier, winding to the sea among snow-covered 4000-foot peaks to calve its icy blue offspring.
