Spring welcomes King Salmon, the beginning of the summer is the height of the Sockeye Salmon run, leading into Pink and Chum Salmon in mid to late July and the season ends with Silver Salmon\u2019s popularity in August and September.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Halibut Fishing<\/strong> \u2013 The saltwater fishing for Halibut in Alaska is some of the best near Sitka. The season lasts from May to September, with some of the larger catches coming in the earlier months. Halibut can weigh in at more than 100 pounds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additional Fish<\/strong> \u2013 Other popular fish near Talon Lodge are Ling Cod, Rockfish and Yellow Eye Snapper and Sablefish. Make sure to check our fishing calendar for the optimal time to catch your desired type of fish.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fly Fishing<\/strong> \u2013 Throughout the Alaska fishing season, you can book a fly fishing trip for rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, dolly varden steelhead or salmon. Your fishing adventure will include a knowledgeable fishing guide. You will be accompanied to a secluded area, rarely another human in sight, to fly fish with solitude. The fly fishing tour can be customized to accommodate particular fish or numerous sized groups.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alaska Fishing Lodges\" href=\"https:\/\/www.talonlodge.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Talon Lodge<\/a> has experienced pilots and fishing guides in the Sitka area. The guides have been fishing in the waters of Sitka Sound most of their lives. The ideal fishing guide will know not only where to take your group, but when the perfect time to hook the species that you\u2019re looking to catch. It is rare to find a spot that is prime for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. But unlike some of the rough, rustic accommodations offer by other lodges, Talon Lodge\u2019s accommodations are comfortable and luxurious. You can end your day with gourmet cuisine and an indulgent massage. Who says you can\u2019t enjoy creature comforts in the wilderness?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alaska was not named the Last Frontier half-heartedly.
