Why Angler's Alibi?
Fly-Out FishingWe have been flying out to remote waters for over three decades and know when and where to go to capitalize on peak dry fly rivers or salmon spawning times and the huge egg drop that the rainbows, char, and grayling gorge on for the long Alaskan winters.
We offer special trout weeks with included fly-outs OR our standard weeks with optional fly-outs. Our location affords us great fishing whether you fly to fish or not! |
A Premier Fishing LodgeAngler’s Alibi, a premier Alaska fishing lodge, is the best example of what an Alaskan fishing trip should be. With over 30 years of experience and our guest/guide ratio of 2:1, we ensure plenty of individual attention, and an Alaskan fishing program tailored to your expectations.
|
Trophy Rainbow TroutAlaska rainbow trout is by far the number one targeted species of fish in this part of Alaska, and the Bristol Bay Watershed is the only designated trophy trout area in the state. Angler's Alibi guests can target trout on the fly in this world-class watershed-- a must for any angler's bucket list.

The Angler's Alibi Experience
Angler's Alibi is located on the tidewater section of the Alagnak River. This location allows for great fishing right off our shoreline, even right off the dock! It also affords us to have one of the best if not best lodge base for a fly-out program in Bristol Bay! We utilize ten guide boats, seven experienced fishing guides, and take only twelve guests per week in July and August. Our special fly-out weeks take only 8 guests maximum ensuring every guest can fly daily. Our approach allows us to customize your fishing program according to your wishes. We offer up to 9 hours of guided fishing every day. Our guests dictate how much time they want to fish, so if more relaxation time is desired, just let us know, this is your week and your time!
We are fishing for rainbow trout which put this area on the map as well as all Pacific salmon - king, sockeye, silver, chum & pink salmon when they are still in their ocean feeding patterns, chrome bright, and full of fight. It is possible to land all 5 species of Pacific salmon without ever leaving the lodge! The fishing and wading is extremely easy on the Alagnak River. The best salmon fishing on the Alagnak River is within a ten minute boat ride from the lodge and some of the very best fly fishing water on the Alagnak River is literally right outside of our front door. This location gives us an amazing location to use for a home base of operations for our fly-out program so if the weather is not safe for flying, we can still fish within a short boat ride from the lodge! Our guided fly-outs to some of Alaska's other very best rainbow trout, arctic char, and grayling streams on Nearby katmai National Park and other rivers are noted for producing the largest wild trout in Alaska if not the entire planet!
New in 2025, we will be replacing all of our weatherport cabins with actual real log cabins. These will all have in suite full bathrooms with a large covered porch, heat, and 24 hour power!
