You will spend 6-nights and enjoy 6-days of fishing at one of the premier fly out fishing lodges in the world. In addition, you will hear the many stories that Rick and Clifford will tell about their amazing run to the NBA Championship in 1975.
The cost for this trip is $8,350 per person from Anchorage. You will need to arrive in Anchorage in time for the 4:30 PM charter flight (included in the price) from Anchorage’s Merrill Field to Iliamna on June 25. If you can’t make it to Anchorage in time for the charter flight, you will need to arrive the day before and overnight at your expense. You will leave Iliamna at 7:30 PM on Saturday, July 1 to return to Merrill Field. Most departures out of Anchorage are late at night, so plan accordingly. Tips for the guides and staff and a one-week fishing license, plus King Salmon stamp, are not included in the price.
While on this fabulous adventure, you will experience the beauty of the Alaskan wilderness, along with its amazing animals. |

Whether you are a skilled fly, spin or novice fisherman, the experienced guides will accommodate your every need.
In fresh water, other than fresh salmon, all species are catch and release. When fishing in salt water, you can keep a variety of species based on the limits set by the Department of Fish & Game. The lodge will filet, freeze and pack up to 50 lbs. of fish in a travel box for your trip home.
