Each morning after a hearty breakfast, you and a fly fishing partner will set out with your experienced guide via your guided jet boat for a full day of adventure and fly fishing. We customize each day the way YOU want to fish. We combine our 22 years of experience and intimate knowledge of the area with your desires. We jet boat from river to river and thru the interconnected lake system to various streams throughout the heart of the Park to fly fish select locations.
Your fly fishing options are unlimited, you are fishing the most diverse freshwater system of rivers, lakes and streams in all of Alaska! Once you’ve flown via floatplane to our Fishing Bear Lodge location daily fly-outs are not required, so everyday is a fishing day, regardless of the weather. You even have great fishing within 100 feet of your waterfront guest cabin. From the end of June to the first of October we have Alaska’s most diverse fly fishing. During each day we are apt to fish dry fly, streamer and nymph patterns depending on seasonal variations, weather, temperatures, cloud cover, etc… our choices dependent on insect development, salmon fry or sculpin movement, spawn activity, etc…. matching the fish feeding habits of the moment.
After a good day of fishing there is still the best part of the day, the evenings. Wow! While some evenings are spent enjoying a beautiful chef prepared dinner at the lodge, other evenings you will enjoy an incredible shoreline dinner hot off the riverside grill. Our goal is for you to catch a lot fish and have an amazing time. So if you are willing, we encourage you to stay out on the river. We will guide you several evenings during your stay to fish those magic evening hatches and rises that occur on our rivers during July and August.
