Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted November 30, 2011 Root Admin Posted November 30, 2011 Ladies and Gents... I have reserved several spots at http://naknekrivercamp.com for 2 weeks in September next year and have openings. First let me say I make no money on this deal. I own a cabin at the camp and I stay there at no charge. I am not getting any kickback from Jim, the owner. The reason I reserved the spots is that I wanted to take some friends up- plus others had expressed interest in going. Jim would have already filled the spots and will book them the minute I release the spots. It's a popular time to go for BIG rainbows. September 8-15 and 15-22 are the weeks. Saturday to Saturday. $2295 per person. Pays for lodging, all meals, all guiding for the entire time you're there. Does not pay for flight to and from King Salmon, alcohol beverages or tips. You supply all tackle, flies and apparel. The cabins sleep anywhere from 2 to 6 people. This isn't the ritz but for the price you'll experience Alaska fishing at it's best. Food is great. So is the fellowship. Fly outs are optional. They run about $350-$500 per and travel to remote rivers for char and rainbows. Most of the salmon are dead or dying by this time although this year (2011) they saw a big run of silvers in the Naknek. Weather- rainy and in the high 40's to 50's daytime. Bugs- not too bad. Bears, fat and happy... eating lots of dead salmon. Interested - deposits are $1000 paid to Jim Johnson by the first of the year. See website for more information on the camp and fishing OR ask here and I'll answer the best I can. First come, first go... can't hold any spots until deposits are received by the Johnsons.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted November 30, 2011 Author Root Admin Posted November 30, 2011 I will be there both weeks. For got to mention that. I won't be guiding... but I'll be roaming and going out with different people including a few friends that have already booked. It'll be a blast!
duckydoty Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Those are my favorite 2 weeks to fish the Naknek River for monster Bows. The river is big, but you have to remember...Any one cast could produce a possible pig. This 36 incher came on th 14 of Sept. 2010 just below Jim Johnson's place. If I could fish one river every day during my season in Alaska, it would be the Naknek! A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at.. Ozark Trout Runners
ciRe Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Man I wish I had the extra cash to go there. Looks like a blast! But I guess I'll just get to fish MO and AR waters for now.
