The Alagnak River and Alaska Trophy Adventures Lodge - The Fish - Part 7 (Arctic Char/Dolly Varden)

Arctic Char are a beautiful fish that closely resemble a large brook trout. They are strong fighters with very similar feeding patterns to trout. As a result, you will catch these fish while targeting our rainbows and often they rise to dry flies as well as chasing streamers. Char are best known for their https://www.atalodge.com/blogs/news/151944519-the-alagnak-river-and-alaska-trophy-adventures-lodge-the-fish-part-7-arctic-char-dolly-varden fall colours of bright reds and orange. Although we catch these spectacular fish all season, the best time to come and target them is August through September as they increase in numbers and beauty. A 6/7 wt. rod with weight forward floating line is recommended when fishing for Arctic char.
