Welcome to the Katmai Trophy Lodge
Katmai Trophy Lodge is a custom Log Lodge on the banks of the World Famous Naknek River in Bristol Bay, Alaska. We are located at the edge of Katmai National Park and permitted to access much of Katmai's amazing Salmon and Trout fishing waters. The Naknek River offers the best Trout and Salmon fishing in Alaska. Whether you are looking for an intense fishing experience or an easy Katmai Adventure, our Alaska Fishing Lodge is the place for you! Check out our website for the top Alaska Fishing Packages and Lodge.
The Naknek River boasts major runs of King ( Chinook ), Sockeye ( Red ), Silver ( Coho), and Chum Salmon along with Monster Rainbow Trout and Arctic Grayling. The Naknek River and the surrounding Katmai National Park are also excellent habitat for bears, bald eagles, moose, wolves, caribou and other Alaskan wildlife.
Over 3 million Sockeye Salmon return to the Naknek River each summer to spawn. This is the largest Sockeye Salmon run not only in Bristol Bay but in Alaska. Our prime location allows us to not only fish most waters of Katmai but also most of Bristol Bay on our remote fly in fishing trips.
Visit the Naknek River and Bristol Bay in June and July for trophy King Salmon fishing. These monster fish average over 30 lbs and can reach up to 60 lbs or larger. Late June to the end of July will receive Bristol Bay's largest Sockeye Salmon run with many days receiving hundreds of thousands of Sockeye's into the Naknek River. In late July through September we will be fighting the acrobatic Silver Salmon ( Coho ). Pound for Pound the Silver Salmon is the top fighting Salmon. Perfect for fly fishing, the Silver Salmon will also take top water flies or lures for the spin fisherman.
Even with record runs of Salmon the real prize on the Naknek River are the Trophy Sized Rainbow Trout. 10 pound Rainbow Trout are caught on the fly every day with many fish over 30 inches. This is truly the finest Rainbow Trout fishing in the world. We cater to both the fly fisherman and the spin fisherman, from novice to expert. Most of our fishing done by walking and wading but also lots of options for boat fishing and/or drifting.
Airplanes are available for fly in fishing trips to Katmai Park and other locations in Bristol Bay. Also a short flight away is the Brooks River and one of the most famous Bear Viewing locations at the Falls. Go for the day and enjoy the wildlife or cast for beautiful Rainbow Trout in the Brooks River.
