Lake Trout are the largest of the char family and can grow to a massive size. They are Alaska’s largest resident fresh water fish. With distinct spots, elongated bodies and deeply forked tail fins they are easy to identify.

On the Alagnak we mostly see these fish during the early season (June through the first week of July) when they are chasing migrating smolt from the lakes down into our river system.

They are aggressive feeders and will prey on anything and everything in our rivers. If anglers want to target these fish later in the season it is just a short boat ride away to assess one of two lakes https://www.atalodge.com/blogs/news/153827335-the-alagnak-river-and-alaska-trophy-adventures-lodge-the-fish-part-9-lake-trout full of Lake Trout.

A 7/8 wt. rod with slow sink tips are recommended for these strong fighting fish.
