Naknek River Camp
Kvichak River
June 25 to July 2, 2016
Lower rivers below lakes are ahead of schedule for water levels because of early thaw and spring showing up to 21⁄2feet of extra water (i.e. the Naknek, Alagnak, and Kvichak rivers).

Naknek River Camp
Naknek River
July 13 to July 20, 2016
Sockeye continue to run in the Naknek River and sister rivers, the Kvichak and Alagnak. Even though it is past its peak, limits of fresh fish are still being caught. Kings have stopped running in the river, but are in staging areas and still biting. The kings should continue to be good fishing until season closes with plenty of large fish being caught in the 30-40 pound range, and even some breaking 40-pounds. Fishing streamers for rainbows has been great with large rainbows in the high 20’s being caught regularly and those hawg 30-inchers still making appearances. Small tributaries across Bristol Bay have begun to host spawning of king and chum salmon leading to great bead fishing.
