This area is renowned for the incredible runs of Pacific salmon it receives each summer season, but also has access to some of the best fishing for rainbows, arctic char, and grayling found anywhere in the world. With the amazing access to this fishery and resource, the Lake Clark Lodge guides will work with anglers each day to go over options and come up with a plan based on the current fishing conditions and the scenarios you are looking to experience during your stay. The lodge also has one of the most diverse lists of species available of any program in Alaska, including not only salmon and trout species but also Northern pike and lake trout for any interested anglers.
