Alaska West is a remote fixed-base tent lodge where you will sleep and eat in semi-permanent tents. The lodge offers Alaska fly fishing at it's best with opportunities to catch all 5 species of pacific salmon, rainbow trout, char, and grayling. Alaska West prides itself in having a tremendous staff of guides who are all hard working, professional, courteous and well outfitted. Alaska West's season runs from early-mid June to early-mid September. One of the best opportunities for the spey angler is the early King salmon run which typically takes place between mid June and mid July. These beasts are aggressive and eager to take a swung fly. Hooking a bright King just minutes from the ocean is a life altering experience as they will test your tackle and skills.
You won't need a coat and tie to wear to dinner, nor will you have to worry about tracking mud on the carpet.
No one will be offended by your cigar smoke or your drink spilled laughing around the campfire.
You will catch fish till your arms are sore and your back aches, and you'll take home a box of Kanektok treasure for your efforts.
You'll spend quality time with quality people like yourself and you won't believe what a special river you are fishing.
You will leave camp a little heavier than when you arrived and if you're like the majority of the anglers that visit Alaska West, you will return.
