Reel Action Alaska operates as a full service tent lodge that has been designed to provide our guests with all the comforts needed for living in the bush. The location of our lodge (1 mile from tide water) was carefully chosen to provide our guests a front row seat to the freshest chrome bright fly fishing action in Alaska. The best holding water to fly fish for fresh run kings, silvers, chums, and pinks is right in front of our lodge! What makes our experience especially unique is that while having the best access to chrome bright salmon action, we also have a tremendous rainbow trout fishery in both the lower and upper river. Kanektok River leopard rainbows are spectacular to admire and a lot of fun to catch - top water action is normal for them and our favorite way to entice them

The Kanektok River is a fly fishermans’ paradise and is one of the best rivers in the world for having a huge variety of beautiful, aggressive fish in combination with a wide variety of fly fishing waters (main river, small stream channels, gravel bars, spey / swinging water and drift boat water). With all five species of pacific salmon (fresh, chrome bright and fishable near tidewater), it also has excellent fly fishing for leopard rainbow trout, dollies, and grayling. During an average season, over five hundred thousand fish run past our lodge.
The river is perfect for experiencing all different types of fly fishing situ-ations, such as stripping streamers for silvers, twitching a mouse fly on the surface for rainbow trout, or swinging with spey flies for king salmon in the main river View more.... You can even use small dry flies for grayling in smaller creek channels. Our ‘weapons’ of choice include single hand, spey and switch rods targeting everything from rainbow trout to king salmon and grayling.
The Kanektok is an excellent river for beginners to advanced anglers alike and a great place to take your family. Our guests get to experience fly fishing for all five species of salmon in their prime as they first enter the river - silver and chrome bright! Guests also experience excellent fly fishing for rainbow trout, dolly varden, and grayling upstream as we cover over 40 miles of the river including access to the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness Area. Our guides are knowledgeable and proficient in teaching both traditional fly fishing and spey casting, and are patient and personable instructors.
We also have been granted a Special Use Permit allowing us limited access into the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness Area. This area begins above river mile 18 and extends another 72 miles up river to Pegati and Kagati Lakes. Accessible only by special permit, each guest at the lodge gets one full day fishing within the Wilderness Area. It has excellent fly fishing opportunities (especially mousing) for leopard rainbows, dolly varden, chum salmon, silver salmon and grayling.
Aside from the fantastic fishery, flora and fauna abound within the ref-uge. Home to at least 283 species of wildlife, there are 33 kinds of fish, 201 assorted birds, 31 land mammals and 17 marine mammals, not to mention 1 amphibian. As for plants, there are over 500 different kinds that can be found in a wide variety of habitats from rolling tundra to rich wetlands. We are extremely fortunate to have been awarded access into this amazing stretch of river and look forward to sharing it with you!
