Discover The Action Alaska Difference!
At Action Alaska Sportfishing, we provide a superior, tailored experience for sportfishing enthusiasts in the heart of Sitka, Alaska. Through our expert guides and customized charter services, we offer the best possible fishing adventures, targeting everything from King Salmon to halibut. Our goal is to offer our clients not just a fishing trip, but an unforgettable journey that brings them face to face with Alaska’s majestic waters, diverse fish species, and stunning landscapes.
The waters surrounding Sitka, Alaska, are part of the Gulf of Alaska, a vast expanse of oceanic water that flows into the Pacific Ocean. The water here can range in color, from emerald green to a deep blue, depending on the time of year and the proximity to glaciers or freshwater inputs. The emerald green color, in particular, is a hallmark of nutrient-rich waters, where glacial meltwaters mix with the ocean, creating an otherworldly hue. During certain times, especially when the sun is low, the water can appear almost turquoise, adding to the dramatic beauty of the Alaskan coastline.
There are few experiences that rival the majesty of Alaska’s saltwater fishing, and Action Alaska Sportfishing offers a gateway to these pristine waters like no other. Whether you’re an avid angler seeking the thrill of halibut fishing or a newcomer eager to embrace the beauty of Alaska fishing, our charters are designed to provide you with an unforgettable journey. From the rugged coastlines of Sitka to the depths of the surrounding waters, we ensure every expedition is both productive and memorable.
At Action Alaska Sportfishing, we believe fishing is more than just a pastime—it’s an exploration of nature’s most magnificent landscapes, a challenge for the mind and body, and a connection to the environment that can only be truly appreciated when you experience it firsthand. And who better to guide you through this unparalleled adventure than Captain Cody Loomis, a lifelong Alaskan with over 25 years of saltwater fishing expertise.
Captain Cody Loomis is no stranger to the waters of Southeast Alaska. Born and raised in this picturesque region, Cody’s deep-rooted connection to the Alaskan coast is apparent in every journey he leads. With a fishing career that spans decades, starting in 1988 as a deckhand on his father’s charter boat, Cody officially launched his own saltwater fishing guide business in 2001. As a third-generation Alaskan, he’s more than just a guide—he’s a steward of these waters.
Cody’s profound understanding of the ocean and its creatures translates into each Alaska fishing charter he leads. He possesses a unique ability to adapt to changing conditions, ensuring that every trip maximizes opportunities. Whether targeting trophy halibut or seeking the elusive King Salmon, Cody’s expert insights, coupled with his unparalleled local knowledge, make him the perfect captain for your Alaskan adventure.
When you book a trip with Action Alaska Sportfishing, you’re not just booking a charter—you’re setting sail on the Kimshan, Cody’s custom-built, high-speed sportfishing yacht. This 35-foot beauty is not just a boat; it’s a purpose-built vessel designed for ultimate comfort, efficiency, and success on the water. Originally crafted from a 1972 Bertram 35, the Kimshan underwent a complete rebuild to meet Cody’s exact specifications, incorporating state-of-the-art technology and luxurious amenities.
Powered by a Volvo Penta engine, the Kimshan cruises at 23 knots and can reach top speeds of over 30 knots, ensuring that you spend more time fishing and less time traveling. With a 16-by-13-foot fishing platform, this boat comfortably accommodates six anglers, allowing everyone ample space to cast without the worry of tangles. The boat also features a full walk-around flush deck, dual heat sources for comfort in varying weather, and a sit-down electric flush head on deck for convenience.
The Kimshan is designed to optimize the fishing experience with custom hydraulic downriggers that allow for deeper trolling than any other charter boat in the state. Cody uses only top-tier equipment, including Seeker, G Loomis, and TFO rods, paired with reels from Accurate, Avet, and Shimano. Additionally, the boat boasts a dry exhaust system, ensuring that the air remains fresh and free of diesel fumes while trolling or mooching.
