ALASKA SALMON FISHING | LATE SUMMER RUNS

Whether you plan on hitting the sea or trekking the inland rivers, the guides at Elfin Cove Resort promise to deliver a diverse range of opportunities for salmon fishing in Alaska. Late summer fishing coincides with the end-of-season runs and tends to be very rewarding. Thanks to ideal environmental conditions and mindful conservation practices, Southeast Alaska provides an excellent chance for an unforgettable adventure. Salmon grow at an accelerated rate near the end of their life spans, meaning the same specimens that were only a few pounds in the early summer could be exceedingly larger towards the end of the season. What’s more, you’ll find plenty of halibut in the ocean in high concentrations, which will also offer a gratifying challenge and an excellent alternative to chasing salmonids
