Alaska Kingfishers

The Nushagak River is Alaska’s most prolific river for Alaska king salmon fishing and this river also receives huge runs of chrome bright chum salmon and sockeye salmon. All anglers are welcome, we offer Alaska fly fishing guides and conventional tackle guided fishing. Alaska Kingfishers also offers world-class Alaska fly-out fishing trips to Alaska’s Bearclaw Lodge. At Bearclaw Lodge we fish the Agulawok River for rainbow Ttrout, Arctic char, Arctic grayling, northern pike, and sockeye salmon. Our remote Alaska fly-0ut fishing trips provide anglers with spectacular fishing where all you’ll see is wildlife and the fish you catch.

We only open our Alaska fishing camp for a few weeks during the prime time of these bountiful Alaska salmon runs. We recommend that you book early to ensure that you catch that trophy Alaska king salmon or your first Arctic char! Our expert Alaska fishing guides will get you hooked up with fish you’ll go home bragging about. Call our Alaska guided fishing service today to book your dates for this season.

The Nushagak’s unimaginable runs of king salmon, chum salmon, and sockeye salmon are certainly worthy of the trip by themselves. However, once on the Nushagak River you will find yourself gazing off into the wilderness or watching a moose cross the river. Whether you are a serious angler looking to land two or three dozen Alaska kings a day…or your first 50-pounder…or just looking for a unique Alaska fishing trip to share with some friends…you have no need to look further — Alaska Kingfishers.

DiamondBlade Knives

DiamondBlade Knives – In 2003, two quail hunters, Hobie Smith of Smith International, Inc., and Charles Allen, Knives of Alaska’s President, were teamed up at the Grand National Quail Convention in Enid, Oklahoma. Conversation led to business and eventually the challenge to build the most technologically advanced blade in the world. Later that year, a group of engineers from industry and Brigham Young University (BYU) met in Provo, UT, initiating a research project to create the sharpest, toughest, and longest lasting cutting edge for knives. After four years of research and development, the team of mechanical and electrical engineers, metallurgists and materials PhDs from Brigham Young University, and manufacturing experts from MegaStir, MegaDiamond, and Knives of Alaska, accomplished their mission. Their research yielded enhanced performance results that were proven to accomplish the team’s goal. Over 750 statistical tests were conducted using 12 different premium-grade knife steels, including CPMS30V, CPMS90, and Talonite, among others, and conclusively proved the DiamondBlade Friction Forged knives were superior in initial edge sharpness, edge retention and longevity, and toughness. Based in Denison, Texas, DIAMONDBLADE, LLC manufactures high-end fixed-blade and folding knives using the patented Friction Forged Technology featured this year on Science Channel’s How it’s Made.

LeeLock Anchor Systems

Eric Jungblom, owner of LeeLock Anchor Systems, was born into a family of fishermen. “Hauling in kings and silvers from the ocean and steelhead and other trout from the rivers and lakes alongside my father, grandfather, and uncle was my favorite thing to do. When I got a little older I took up fishing with drift and power boats in the big rivers but I often had trouble with the anchor and line and that wasn’t very safe. I realized we needed a simpler and safer system to manage anchors and boat accessories and I set out to develop it.”

LeeLock Anchor Systems was started in 2008 with one patented product: the LeeLock Line Lock, and there was no turning back. “After the creation of the Line Lock unit I incorporated it into an extensive line of products for power boats, drift boats and inflatable boats. After the Line Lock was in use I designed a universally interchangeable system that allows boat owners to easily and quickly change their anchor system accessories depending on their fishing and boating needs.” Presently the universally interchangeable systems are being used by guides throughout the U.S. and Canada.

LeeLock Anchor Systems is located in Ferndale, WA. “All the materials I use come from the U.S. and the products are manufactured and assembled right here in the shop. It’s very important to me that LeeLock Anchoring Systems and Accessories are made in the U.S.A.” Eric Jungblom, owner.

Naknek River Camp

Welcome to Naknek River Camp – I am addicted to catching big fish. I’ve been through all of the 12-step programs. I’ve read John Gierach. I’ve even taken pictures of eight-inch brook trout. Nothing has worked. The adrenaline rush that sweeps through me when a monster fish grabs my fly is like a drug. For someone afflicted with this pervasive illness, Alaska is the only medicine. The problem is that like most addictions, this one can be horribly expensive. Many a poor soul has been forced to choose between buying shoes for his kids or paying for that $10,000 trip to Bristol Bay. Thankfully, help has arrived.

A trip to the Naknek, the best trophy rainbow river in Bristol Bay, is now available at an affordable price. No longer will a fishing trip to Alaska have to be “once in a lifetime” because, speaking as an addict, a one-time shot of Alaska just isn’t enough. You have to experience the epic smolt migrations of June, the huge runs of salmon in July and August and the monster rainbows of September and October for yourself.

No, for the true big-fish junkie, one trip to Alaska won’t stop the shakes. That is why, here at Naknek River Camp, we’ve gone the extra mile to make Alaska affordable: 7-day guided trips, including food and lodging in our riverfront resort from $3,995.

Nushagak River Adventures Lodge

Welcome to Nushagak River Adventures Lodge. The Nushagak is best known for having the largest run of wild king salmon anywhere in the world and a huge run of silvers! Our remote river receives less sport angling pressure than other parts of Alaska—and that makes the fishing even better. Guests choose from the king or silver salmon seasons or a multi species trip in the latter half of July. You’ll travel from Anchorage to Dillingham, Alaska then on to the lodge by floatplane for four glorious days of guided fishing. Nushagak River Adventures Lodge is a five star lodge in Alaska’s Bristol Bay. The property has been rebuilt from the ground up over the last three years ago. Most of the operations on The Nush are tent camp facilities, but our lodge features individual 12′ x 20′ cabins complete with USB wall outlets. Real beds, quality mattresses, and down pillows provide first class comfort. A brand new main lodge is where we gather for good company and expertly made meals. Our full service lodge provides meals, guiding, private cabins, and fish processing. We combine top shelf service, superb dining, quality boats, gear and accommodations plus outstanding salmon fishing to make for an exceptional Alaska fishing trip.

Sea Eagle

For over 50 years, Sea Eagle has been a leader and innovator in inflatable boat design. Starting with a two-person kayak back in 1968 and now offering everything from kayaks to motorboats, including eight different models made specifically for fishing. Our fishing SUPs, kayaks, boats, and skiff are all designed to make your fishing experience fun and rewarding.

Having a fishing fanatic on the clock helps us design fishing boats that will work for any angler. One of our many great fishing craft is our 1-2 person, inflatable FishSUP FS126. It is one of the most popular models we offer. It’s chock full of features like a built-in 40” fish ruler, 14 D-rings to secure seats and gear, and a removable motor mount for an electric trolling motor. And with a wide, 40” beam, it is super stable.

All you need is hook, line and a Sea Eagle because our rugged, stable fishing craft can go where others can’t. They can fit in a car trunk and can even be checked as luggage. We have models for every type of angler. Looking to the future, we plan to continue making cutting-edge products for fishing, paddling, and boating, just as we’ve done for the past 52 years.

Togiak River Lodge

Togiak River Lodge is the only full-service lodge on the famed Togiak River. The Togiak is home to one of the best king and coho salmon fisheries in the entire state of Alaska. We offer full-service packages which include guided fishing, lodging, food and top-notch fish processing. In addition to kings and silvers, the Togiak is home to chum, red, and pink salmon, as well as Dolly Varden char and rainbow trout. Guests visiting Togiak River Lodge travel to Anchorage and then board a flight that brings them to the village of Togiak. From there, we pick you up and your adventure begins. Our lodge is a short boat ride upriver from the mouth, which puts us in prime location to intercept chrome, sea-lice laden salmon. Our guides are experts in this fishery and have many years of experience putting clients onto fish. On the Togiak, the king and silver runs are very healthy and with little competition from other anglers, the fishing is generally fantastic. We understand that our guests want to bring home prime-quality salmon from their trip to Togiak Lodge, so we take special heed to properly care for, fillet, vacuum-seal and package your fish for travel home. Our goal is to provide an extraordinary fishing experience, comfortable lodging, quality food, salmon fillets to enjoy for months to come, and memories to last a lifetime.

Xtratuf

Wheelhouse – This is the commercial-grade version of our very popular Ankle Deck Boot fishermen have been asking for. Standing for 12+ hours a day on the sea can cause feet to swell, and the wider fit of this boot is built for that. The upper is reinforced in high wear areas such as the toe and heel for maximum durability. The boot features an EVA/PU-blend insole for all-day comfort, and an SRC-rated outsole for industry- leading slip resistance. Available in men’s sizes.

Homer – True Alaskan innovation, the Homer was inspired by Alaskan commercial fishermen who prefer to slip into a lightweight shoe when the fish aren’t biting. The Homer is water resistant, but with a slipper-like feel. A comfortable wool upper with a full faux-shearling lining keeps you warm and cozy, while a molded EVA insole provides added comfort. The classic XTRATUF non-marking Chevron outsole delivers great slip resistance. Unisex sizes available.

Legacy Lace – We previewed this style as an online, limited edition in November and December and they sold out in no time and people are continuing to ask for this style. An exciting new collection from XTRATUF, the Legacy Lace enables our community of doers to explore farther, work harder and do more in a highly versatile boot. Rich waterproof leather uppers meet the iconic triple-dipped latex neoprene Legacy bottom unit. Legacy’s are known for their unique, pliable construction that is flexible and soft while also providing excellent protection, traction and all-day comfort no matter where your adventures may lead. Available for both men and women, and also available in a Chelsea style.

The ride to the fishing grounds is quick, and scenic, and the bottom fishing we do is usually in 150 feet of water or less. The Situk is a world-class river, and part of the experience is a 14-mile drift-boat ride down the river. It twists and turns through old-growth forest, and viewing animals like moose, bear and eagles is part of the adventure. Our guides are top-notch and have many years of experience. Our staff aims to help make your trip memorable in every aspect, our restaurant serves good food, and our bar offers a wide selection of beverages. Come to Yakutat Lodge and you will be hooked!
