Shrimping Charters in Whittier, Alaska Starting April 15
First let me start by stating I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. 2020 was a challenge for all of us, but we made it through and we are ready to hit the new year running. Saltwater Excursions will be offering shrimping/fishing charters and shrimping/sightseeing charters for the 2021 season.
We will offer a customized charter to your liking. With Shrimping, we are only allowed one party on board and you must have one shrimp permit. The shrimp permits are free on the Department of Fish and Game’s website. Anyone wanting to partake in the shrimping festivities must have a fishing license as well.
There are five species of shrimp (Pandalus family) found in Alaskan waters: northern (formally “pink”), humpy, sidestripe, coonstripe, and spot. Both northern and humpy shrimp are usually marketed as cocktail or salad shrimp. Sidestripes are usually found in much deeper water, while spots are usually the largest species.
Pandalid shrimp are among the relatively few animals the are hermaphroditic. Most individuals spend the early part of their mature lives as males, and then transform into females for the rest of their lifetimes. Females carry from a few hundred to as many as 4,000 eggs. Eggs hatch in the spring, and by mid-summer, the shrimp larvae have typically grown enough to settle into their preferred habitat as a juvenile shrimp.
Call now to book your shrimping adventure.

Alaska Spot Shrimp are caught in pots in deep cold water.
