Our Fishing Program

At Mission Lodge we have a wide variety of Alaskan fish species to chase after. Some of these are referred to as our native species, which in essence are the non-ocean going fish. The rest are the Pacific salmon species which we are targeting in or close to the tidewater as they first enter the rivers and streams of Bristol Bay Alaska.

BOOK YOUR SPACE NOW

We are blessed with five species of Pacific Salmon that come up our rivers and streams, chrome-bright and full of fight. Throughout our summer and fall season, there is a different combination of salmon that are available to our anglers. We are happy to chase after these with fly, spin or conventional tackle depending the needs and wants of the angler.

All of the necessary tackle, both fly & spin, is provided for you at the lodge as part of the package. This also includes Goretex© waders and boots.

You have your own locker space in our heated boat room. Here you will suit up and down each day into the lodge provided Goretex® waders and boots.

limit your kill ~ don’t kill your limit

The fish the freshwater rivers of Bristol Bay. We flew to a wide range of rivers with varying sizes and character. Once you arrive to your location, one of our USCG licensed guides will take you by small jet boat to the best fishing grounds. Fishing can be done by walk and wading, drifting or anchored in the boat or some combination depending on the angler’s needs and abilities.

The lodge has a fleet of small jet boats strategically located in pairs throughout the Bristol Bay region to help us access remote lakes, rivers and streams.

Our guides are licensed USCG captains who are focused on your safety and success on the water.

For our native species we practice strict “Catch and Release”. If you would like to take some fresh salmon home, our guides will help you pick the best ones to keep and filet, vacuum seal and flash freeze your catch. Our lodge has developed the attitude of “limiting your kill, don’t kill your limit”. Each angler can take up to 50 pounds of frozen salmon filets, which happens to be about ten times the national average of salmon consumed in the U.S.A.
