Alaska Fishing - Interior Alaska
Anglers enjoy a great variety of fish and outdoor opportunities in the interior of Alaska. This enormous area of Alaska offers all five species of Pacific salmon in its rivers as well as some of the most sought after fish in the Arctic in its many, many lakes and streams. Northern pike are abundant in the rivers and lakes and some of largest sheefish in the world can be caught in this vast region. There are plenty of opportunities to fish for trophy Arctic char, lake trout, Dolly Varden, and grayling.
The Alaska Department of Fish and Game operates an active stocking program for rainbows and land-locked salmon in lakes accessible by road. Interior rivers also provide excellent habitat for burbot, sometimes referred to as Alaska lobster.
