Located on the shores of Alaska's largest lake, Lake Iliamna, this lodge is perfectly positioned to take advantage of tremendous salmon runs and world-class fishing for trophy rainbow trout, arctic char and grayling. This owner-operated lodge accommodates only eight anglers per week, assuring you of very personalized service. Designated as the only trophy trout management area in Alaska, you'll fish for monster rainbows that can exceed 17 lbs. June is one of the best months for trophy rainbows. After a long winter, these trout are hungry and will often times chase a streamer right to your feet! In early to mid July, the area rivers and streams become flooded with salmon and nearly every cast can produce a strong fighting sockeye or chum. Annual salmon runs can exceed 10 million fish! By mid to late August, streams begin to see the annual migration of the silver salmon, considered the acrobatic of the five species of Pacific salmon. By mid-September, once most of the salmon have died off, this region of Alaska turns in to one of the finest rainbow trout fisheries in the world. Trout will feed aggressively on salmon flesh preparing for the winter ahead. Late September and early October is your best chance at hooking a 30"+ rainbow! Some of the rivers fished may include the Copper, considered one of North America's Top 100 Trout Streams. Other area rivers include the Gibraltar, upper Talarick, and Moraine Creek. Floatplanes, cabin cruisers and jet sleds are all used to transport you into the fishing areas where you'll experience some of Alaska's most prolific fisheries.
