After a year of uncertainty due to Covid, we are sure glad to be "back at it" up here at ATA Lodge, on the Wild Alagnak River! June 8th is always the season opener up here, and the trout have not seen a fly in the 8 months since we left last September! So we are always excited to get back on the water and wet a fly. In fact, June may well be my personal favorite time to be on the river. The salmon haven't arrived yet. There aren't many guests that come up for just the trout fishing. We've been missing the beauty of the river and area and are so happy to look over the meadow...
We have had a late start due to Covid19, but we are happy to announce that we are Open for Business As Not So Usual! And what a great time to be here at ATA Lodge on the Alagnak Wild River!! Normally we would have an opening week starting June 8th with a lodge full of guests here for the great trout fishing that we have at the beginning of the season before the salmon start to arrive.

All our guests were thrilled with the overall quality of fishing to be had from day one! The Alagnak Wild River of Bristol Bay has long be renowned for its fantastic rainbow trout fishing. And June is the best time to come for "mousing", dry fly fishing as well as streamer fishing. One after another, those hungry trout were keen to...
With only 3 months to go before opening day on the Alagnak Wild River of Bristol Bay, Alaska; ATA Lodge is looking forward to another great season. It is about this time we start to get that itchy feeling that starts tingling from the very tips of our toes as we anticipate the beginning of another season on what could be considered one of the very best rivers anywhere in the world for what we love to do....and boy do we love to catch fish! For fishermen who have tasted of the goodness of the Alagnak River, they always cherish the moments they have spent standing knee deep in it's crystal clear waters with a fly rod in hand, anticipating...
