Lodge guest lands a bright Silver Salmon while fly fishingIn the last couple of weeks Southeast Alaska fishing opportunities took a slight shift. Silver salmon fishing picked up significantly on nearby rivers and streams. Nice catches while fly fishing for silver salmon were the norm. Jude and Hannah Buckley from Minnesota had a great day on Staney Creek recently and put six bright silvers on the bank with one pushing fourteen pounds.

Salmon Fishing Sizzles in Southeast Alaska

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

Catch of the day while saltwater salmon fishing at the lodge

The Stepaniks with a nice mix of silvers, pinks and rockfish.


This week was great for salmon fishing at Alaska’s Boardwalk lodge. On freshwater streams, such as the Thorne River and Staney Creek, increasing numbers of silver salmon (aka coho salmon) are starting to make their appearance. The streams were choked with pink and chum salmon until a recent hard rain had them on the move upstream.

Southeast Alaska July Fishing Report

By Captain Rich
Saturday, August 6th, 2011
Saltwater fishing for silver salmon

Boardwalk's office staffer, Kassi Seubert, with two nice silvers.

Last months saltwater fishing at Alaska’s Boardwalk Lodge was good. We had large numbers of pinks and silvers as well as chrome bright chum salmon in the mix all month. The bulk of the silver salmon run is yet to come with promising signs just these last few days with good numbers of silvers showing up on the boats. King salmon fishing has been tapering off now, with a few being caught. This season was a little better than the last two seasons and next year should be better yet.

Alaska Halibut Fishing Heats Up

By Alaska Boardwalk Lodge
Thursday, July 14th, 2011

Alaska Halibut fishing charter
The weather is heating up here in Southeast Alaska, and so is the Halibut fishing. Some of the favorite adventure opportunities here at Alaska’s Boardwalk Lodge are our saltwater fishing trips. Although freshwater adventures remain a favorite of many outdoorsman here, Alaska Halibut fishing shouldn’t be missed. Recent changes in regulation mean that not all fishing lodges and charter boats in Southeast Alaska are permitted to offer guided Halibut fishing. Boardwalk Lodge is one of the few sport lodges where you can enjoy the chance to catch one of these monsters.
