When to fish Alaska

  Spring Alagnak RainbowJust after 12:01 am June 8thOpening day in the Bristol Bay watersheds begins June 8th each year when these waters open to fishing for rainbow trout such as the 'bows of spring' pictured on this page. Other watersheds open up earlier for other species such as salmon, this usually applies to our 1/2, full and 2 day trips closer to Anchorage. Other areas such as in Northwest Alaska might not find us on the water until late June due to run timing for salmon or historically better fishing once the waters warm up from the spring thaw.  Whatever the river however we offer a variety of dates through late September or early October in some cases. In order to find out when 'you' should be here, what has worked best for our client friends over the years is a call to us and a discussion about your groups desires in an Alaska trip. This way we can then discuss the many factors that make up a successful experienceLugNut Mouse Bow and find you the right one on the right river at the right time for your groups situation.  The call is free so pick up the phone and dial 1-877-235-2647 operators are standing by!  Ok maybe not an operator, more likely you will get Paul the owner and while he will field your calls at 3 am it might be best to wait until he gets that first cup of coffee in the morning or just leave a message on the machine and follow up with an email containing your name and phone number and he will return your call.  For those of you on the east coast call just before or anytime after lunch as we are four hours earlier in the day up here in Alaska, We look forward to talking with you soon!
