Alaska Silver Salmon
Alaska Silver Salmon fishing trip on the Nushagak River in Bristol Bay, AK, is nothing less spectacular. These both acrobatic and aerial Silver Salmon (Coho) leap out of the water, consistently making catching them a thrill on either fly rods or spinning gear. Located on Nushagak River in the Bristol Bay area, our Alaska fishing lodge is in the prime location to get your limit of silvers. Our fishing guides take fishers to where the Alaska Silver Salmon are coming up the Nushagak the heaviest.
The Nushagak River has all five salmon species (Chinook, Coho, Sockeye, Chum, and Pinks) and, of course, the mighty Silver Salmon. In late July, then ending in early September, over 100,000 silvers head up the river to their spawning grounds. Nearly 112,000 Alaska Silver Salmon went through the Alaska Fish & Game(ADFG) counter in 2018, and ADFG expects even larger runs for 2021.
