Fly Fishing in Alaska

For many anglers Alaska fly fishing, whether saltwater or freshwater is the ultimate fishing dream vacation. Flippin a fly up a gentle stream in the Alaska wilderness for a trout or salmon is the definition of a sportsmen becoming one with nature. An Alaska fly fishing vacation is more than just a fishing trip you enjoy, it is an adventure you experience and something you as an avid angler will remember for a lifetime.

Fly fishing in Alaska for salmon or trout in a freshwater river or stream has been a main-stay for as long as anglers have been venturing to the great Alaskan wilderness and fly-in country to experience the awesome thrill of Alaska fishing. But only recently, about 10 years or so in "fishing time" has saltwater fly fishing in Alaska taken hold. Without fail it seems most saltwater fly fishing takes place in the inter tidal zone around the mouth of various streams and rivers. Alaska fly fishing in saltwater most likely means anglers are fishing for the various species of Pacific salmon that return to the Alaskan rivers whence they came each summer for their up-river swim to spawn.
