Greely, Alaska Fishing Guide

Salmon and halibut are common fish found in Alaska, but the fish in Greely is different. Here the most popular type of fish is the Artic char, with the grayling following a close second. These two types of fish are commonly found during the winter months. In the summer and spring months, fishermen encounter types of salmon and rainbow trout, particularly around the Copper River.

Those fishing in the Greely area should be aware of the cold temperatures, which are year round. Even in the summer months the air temperature is fairly low, as is the temperature of the water. With the wind chill, the temperature can easily drop below zero and cause damage to the equipment. Those fishing should take precautions by wearing multiple layers of clothing and covering their face.

They require that all guests make a reservation with the company and then they'll create a trip around their needs, including transportation to Greely. They also include the boat and fishing trip itself in the cost.
