Late June and Early July at the Royal Coachman AK

Over the last two weeks in Alaska, lots of changes are occurring in our river and lake systems. The King, Chum, and Sockeye salmon runs are in full swing and we have already seen some chum and sockeye spawning in some rivers! The Northern Pike fishing is still great but starting to slow a little. We have caught a couple of big Shefish, which are quit rare for us and are a great fighting fish. Lakers are still feeding heavy on salmon smolt. The char and rainbow fishing has slowed down a little this week in some of the systems but he dolly varden fishing is just starting to heat up.
