The walkers and the poppers work great on the middle-earth spot, in between the rocks. What I enjoy most in Alaska is going for the dolly-vardens and bull trout with topwater gear. Even in the non-peak times, there's plenty of fish to be caught. Like I said, don't rely solely on the Chinook. Sometimes you'll have a good day, and fill your net pretty quickly sometimes you'll catch hardly anything at all. So don't expect to fill your net with only these. There is a bobber guide, but I don't know if it's still accurate:Īlso, be aware that the big chinooks got nerfed lately. It is possible to fish this spot with a float setup / bottom rods, but you'll have to experiment with those on your own. To get an idea of the spot, have a look at this video: Especially the X-Series bullet spinner is a beast in Alaska - as well as the X-Series single spoon. it can be hard to get them off the ground since the latest updates) with one of the nymphes attached, the different single spoons and of course the bullet spinners. If the cranks don't work out, you can also try the Medium Spoons, a #4/0 JigHead (don't go too heavy. Stand on one of the islands, do a full cast left and right, reel it in with an occasional stop / twitch, and find out where they are sitting. But you can use the bigger ones for fishing the main canal from the islands, going for the big Chinook, as Maj.Tryhard already mentioned. The shallow cranks with the #3/0 hook work for most areas, as most of them are not that deep. Dull colours for sunny weather, brighter colours for cloudy weather. You can always try the different crankbaits. When it comes to lures, there's a lot of stuff that works in Alaska. Partly because I didn't try it that much, partly because of the strong current, which makes it pretty frustrating at times. I didn't have that much success with bobber fishing. To me, Alaska is more of a spin-fishing location.
