Alaska speaks to you like no other place can, the people, the scenery, the beauty; it’s like nothing on earth. Breathtaking ocean coasts, rushing rivers, majestic mountain peaks, and best of all, great fishing. Alaska is a unique piece of America that offers pure wilderness adventure holidays ranging from wild to mild, with a fascinating history and a multi-cultural heritage that s reflected in communities throughout the state.

With over 3 million lakes, 3,000 rivers and countless fish-filled streams, the challenge isn’t catching fish, but deciding what kind to catch and where? The fishing is different from anywhere else in the world. It’s an angler’s dream. The summer waters teem with five kinds of wild Pacific Salmon (King/Chinook, Silver/Coho, Red/Sockeye, Pink/Humpback and Chum), plus hefty Rainbow Trout and delicate Arctic Grayling.

The main Salmon fishing starts as the the fresh chrome coloured King s start to run from the sea, up the river, towards their spawning grounds. They enter, in their thousands around June through to July; fish weighing in at around 20lbs, 40lbs and, indeed, more. At this time of year we have had a group of eight anglers catch over 300 Kings in just five days fishing. Along with the Kings, although smaller, but equally good sport on balanced fly fishing tackle, are the Chum Salmon. The Chum are followed by the Pinks in August, which mass in astonishing numbers. Plus, do not forget there are the hefty Rainbows that gorge themselves on Salmon eggs, along with the Arctic Grayling that all offer tremendous sport on light tackle. With all this abundance, variety and choice in such a wild, dramatic setting, Alaska surely offers the ultimate game fishing adventure.

What our customers have to say: "Thank you for the best Salmon experience of my life" Peter Swan "The challenge was not catching the Salmon but thinking up different ways to catch them " Robin Cook "The lodge, guides, scenery and the fishing was as you exactly as you described. Highly recommended as the saying goes it was exactly as it said on the tin" Paul Haverson
