Chinook salmon, also known as king salmon, are the largest of the five Pacific salmon species. Kings re found in sheer abundance on the low-pressured Nushagak River from a statewide perspective.
Coho salmon, also known as silvers, are one of the favorites on the Nushagak River. We are typically the only lodge open during this time of year on The Nush so we practically have the whole river to ourselves.
Sockeye salmon, also known as reds, are the most plentiful fish to spawn in the Nushagak River and throughout Bristol Bay. With over a million red salmon entering the Nushagak, the action can be exciting and fast.
Alaskan rainbow trout are very prevalent in the upper Nushagak River where they are feasting on the salmon roe. Fly fishing for native & wild trout may not get any better and there is very little pressure on this fishery.
Fill out the request dates and details form and we will send you rates and additional information. For 2026 we have availability during king, sockeye and coho seasons but the calendar can fill up so please book your preferred dates as soon as possible.

“Caught more King salmon here than ever before. Highly recommend Fish The Nush.”
“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 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.”

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.
