July Fishing in Alaska

What to Expect in July

The lupine are blooming. The sockeye are running. Summer is in full swing! The Lodge at 58* North is bustling, and we are fishing and flying every day. Though many anglers think of July as a month solely focused on salmon fishing, the Bristol Bay region has some incredible small-stream fishing for rainbow trout, grayling, and char during this time. This is often more traditional trout fishing methods with nymphs, dry flies, streamers and even mice! We fly into Katmai National Park and Becharof Wildlife Refuge in float planes to these remote streams often finding the solitude we crave and the trout fishing experience we dream about!
