Ringer Report post Posted August 8, 2022 Never heard of that one. I have done 27 trips to fish Alaska. Is it a Bristol Bay drainage? The coho should be running good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kvichak comes out of Lake Illiamna (largest freshwater lake in Alaska) and is a Bristol Bay drainage. Huge Bows and incredible sockeye runs. Couesnut, you will not be disappointed!

runningbird Report post Posted August 23, 2022 yes, please post some pictures and tell us about your trip. In 2000 I took my 3 children and spent 2 months in AK. We loved it, my middle son hooked and landed a king in the first 10 min of fishing. We caught and sent home a ton of salmon, it was pretty cheap back then. But we honestly enjoyed the inland areas more than the coast. Seemed like we had hundreds of square miles to ourselves. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
