The Alaskan Chum (Dog) Salmon is an under-rated adversary with the prolific choice of fish to target on the Alagnak River!

We have availability during the first part of August if you want to test your strength and...

Silver Salmon average around 8 to 10lbs. and are by far the most acrobatic of the salmon species. These spectacular game fish are well known for taking top water flies and leaping clear out of the water after being hooked.   For these reasons they are personally my favorite salmon species to target on the fly. Silvers will start to show up in the last few days of July and gradually build in numbers through September. The best time to target the Silvers on our river is from the second week of...
