  Although some fishermen who venture to Alaska after trout choose to hire a guide or stay at a lodge, there are ample opportunities to rent a cabin on a quiet lake or river and fish on your own and at your own pace. There are companies that will transport you to a cabin they maintain and provide you with everything you need, or you can book a cabin yourself, pack you gear and arrange for your own transportation.
