Lazy Puffin Lodge offers guided fly-in fishing experiences in the remote waters of Kodiak Island. Our 2027 fishing program includes both Standard/Shared-Lodge fishing and Private Lodge Experiences, with options depending on trip dates, group size, and availability.
Standard/Shared-Lodge trips allow solo travelers, couples, and smaller groups to reserve space on selected dates, while Private Lodge Experiences are available for groups seeking an exclusive lodge experience.
Selected shared-lodge dates are available for solo travelers, couples, and groups of 2–3. Trips require a minimum of 4 guests to operate.
Solo travelers, couples, and groups of 2–3 may reserve space on selected shared-lodge dates at the standard per-person rates. Shared trips require a minimum of 4 guests to operate.
A refundable shared-trip hold deposit may be used while Lazy Puffin Lodge works to pair compatible guests. The trip is not confirmed until the 4-guest minimum is met and Lazy Puffin Lodge confirms the reservation in writing.
