Waterfall Resort is home to a fleet of fishing boats used exclusively by resort guests and staff.

Ketchikan, Alaska (PRWEB) July 18, 2014 -- What’s more rewarding than reeling in trophy-sized Wild Alaskan Salmon during your Alaska fishing retreat? At Waterfall Resort, the most popular fishing lodge in Alaska, guests have the added incentive to compete for up to $100,000 in prizes. Now in its 26th year, the $100K “King of Kings” Salmon Tournament spans the summer season, June 13 through August 18, 2014. Exclusive for guests of Waterfall Resort, both novice and avid anglers alike can try their luck. Waterfall Resort is near Ketchikan, just a 90-minute flight from Seattle, and offers all-inclusive service with expert guides, historic accommodations, and distinct culinary offerings.

Following daily fishing excursions, resort guests weigh-in their Wild Alaskan King Salmons to see who won catch of the day. Tournament prizes include cash payouts, free trips back to the Resort, international cruises, brand new vehicles and more.

Where the ranking stands at this mid-summer point:

1st Place: 56.8 lb fish caught by Tab Johnson from Santa Ana, CA on July 11, 2014
2nd Place: 53.2 lbs fish caught by Mike Bolen from Newport Beach, CA on June 20, 2014

This summer, Southeast Alaska is experiencing the best fishing in years due to improved king salmon fishing limits as set by Alaska Department of Fish and Game. As such, Waterfall Resort guests could take home double their peak season Chinook catch over last year.

Established in 1912, Waterfall Resort was once a fish cannery that broke records for the sheer volume of seafood it caught and exported all over the world. In 1983, The Waterfall Group transformed the property into one of the finest remote sport-fishing destinations in the world. Its unparalleled location on Prince of Wales Island adjacent Alaska’s Inside Passage combined with its four-star guest service, experienced team of guides and staff, gourmet Alaskan recipes and cuisine by Chef Isaiah Phillips make for an unforgettable experience year after year.

Waterfall Resort guests can participate in the 2014 $100,000 “King of Kings” Salmon Tournament as part of their stay for an additional entry fee of $75, which is valid for the full summer season. Tournament prize sponsors include: Princess Cruises, Southern California Ford Dealers, and Cabela’s Outdoor.
