Katmai National Park

Not only will you enjoy Wood Tikchik State Park each day, a short flight will allow you to open the door to Katmai National Park. Home of Brooks Falls, the Valley of 10,000 smokes and endless miles of river to fish.

				I have been four times all the way from Japan taking over 18 hours with long distance international flight and long layover time at Anchorage waiting Penair. 

(Better to take Alaskan once a day jet flight to Dillingham) 

But, It is worth going multiple times, since you can catch almost all species in freshwater in AK. 

I trust the best time to visit is either early July for King and Sockeye or Mid August for Silver. But,Its not too bad to achieve grandslam of salmon in end of July.

The lodge located beside beautiful lake, you can enjoy great scenery on fine day.

Owner Rob and his wife Lisa are taking care of me recommending bear or wine after fishing. 

I am keeping in touch with some of friendly fishing guides even now.

Most of the gears providing including wading gear, but no double hand or switch rod, recommend you to bring your own if you need.

				Rob, his staff and guides were amazing. The accommodations and food were also great. I took my 11 year old son with me and both of us fly fished and knocked off 6 species off our bucket list (sockeye, chum, grayling, rainbow, Dolley Varden, and Pink).

Their guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and fishy. We experienced a variety of scenery, fishing out of boat and wading in side creeks. I got to see my son enjoy the time of his life fishing. That’s an experience we won’t forget. His smile from ear to ear warmed my heart. 

The view at the lodge facing the lake was spectacular. Each day you get to witness the sunrise and sunset across the lakes and the mountains with a warm cup of coffee in hand or a cold drink in the evening after fishing. 

Sadly, we had to live but no doubt we will return again to make more memories together. If you get the chance, take the opportunity and visit Alaska with them. It will be worth making memories with family and or friends. Thanks Rob, Greg, Doug, Ty, Steve, Keith, Barrette, Erica and John for taking care of us. You are the best!
