Alaska Fly Fishing

Kanektok River
This Alaska outfitter operates from a fixed-base tent lodge on the banks of the Kanektok River. The Kanektok runs with all five species of Pacific salmon, rainbow trout, Dolly Varden and grayling, the river provides a great mix of quantity and variety. The location on the river, 5.5 miles from its mouth, puts you in a unique position to sample the variety the river has to offer.

Downriver from camp is the larger water, including the long gravel bars where the kings hold, the deep snaggy channels where the big rainbows lie, the backwaters that load with silvers and the tidewaters full of salmon fresh from the salt. Upriver from camp, the river makes a transition to smaller water, side channels and tributaries. These sections allow hiking up channels for rainbows, targeting salmon in smaller water, making day-long drifts fishing for “anything” and working extremely productive dolly flats.

Arolik River
Through their partnership with the Native Village of Kwinhagak and Coastal Villages Region Fund, This Alaska outfitter operates daily guided fishing on the Arolik River. Guests stay at the camp and commute to the Arolik each day.

With excellent clarity and about half the size of the Kanektok the Arolik is home to all five Alaskan salmon species, rainbow trout, dolly varden and grayling. There is no more beautiful rainbow than an Arolik rainbow!

To spend a day on the Arolik is to see Alaska as it was 100 years ago; guests are very forunate to have the opportunity.
