Our superb location enables us to fish the lower Nushagak River in Bristol Bay where the best salmon fishing in Alaska occurs annually. We invite you and your guests to fish with our experienced guides for the salmon fishing trip of a lifetime at our 5-star lodge in the Bush.
The Nushagak River, in Alaska’s Bristol Bay, is home to Alaska’s largest run of wild Chinook salmon. As the season progresses sockeye enter the Nushagak River from Bristol Bay, the world’s largest producer of these prized fish. We also see an enormous run of silvers with little to no fishing pressure and are usually the only lodge open during silver season on The Nush. The main lodge is the gathering for guests to enjoy exquisite meals and share fish stories. The bathhouse is spacious and impeccably clean with separate facilities for women and men. The buildings on the property are connected with walkways. We truly have the nicest lodge, the best hospitality, the top equipment, boats and gear, and knowledgable guides on the river.

This is my second trip to this fantastic lodge. I call it the Taj Mahal of fishing lodges in Alaska. Great accommodations, private cabins, hot showers and flush toilets, lodge for eating and gathering including an unbelievable chef. 3 great meals per day including appetizers when coming off the river before dinner. Excellent guides, boats, and all fishing gear provided. Your fish is frozen and packaged to take home on the plane. If you’re looking for a great Alaska fishing experience, this is the place you need to visit.
My first experience in Alaska and its amazing. We were on the water for 20 minutes and has king salmon on the boat. The guides are amazing the facilities are great.
This was my second visit to the Nushagak River Adventures Lodge. Everything about my experience was outstanding! The facilities, food, and staff are all first class and amazing. The fishing guides are knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. Fishing was great! The food was excellent in both quality and quantity. Top rated restaurant quality. The housing units were clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff is very friendly and treats you like family. The owner, Pete, is very welcoming and personable.
The Nushagak River Adventure was way beyond my expectations. It’s a luxurious experience in the wilderness of Alaska where comforts are not typically available. Pete the owner and his team have thought of everything. They are a great team that bends over backwards to make the customer’s experience the best that it can be. The fishing was fantastic. The food was exceptional. The cabins were comfortable. Everything was top notch. I definitely want to return!
Five star experience, flew into camp with a pilot who has 22,000 hours under his belt. Was catching fish within an hour of arriving. Camp is super clean and it’s just beautiful out here. By far the best guides in the area. Thank you Pete!
Where do I begin… YOU run a first class operation! I had a BLAST! Outstanding food, accommodations, guides, and seaplane service. Thanks for one of my “Bucket List” items! I hope they will invite me back again.
