Brooks Range Adventures: fishing at Chandalar Lake


Heart stopping Alaska scenery surrounds you on the mountain lakes, sloughs, and rivers.  Travel and fish beautiful Chandalar Lake and River and it's many offshoots in the Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

   
Our lodge is located on Chandalar Lake, at the headwaters of the Chandalar River. This is one of the largest lakes in Alaska's Brooks Range.  Chandalar Lake is over five miles long and one and one-half miles wide.  In this last true wilderness you will experience an angler's dream come true: ancient lakers, as long as your arm and up to 30 pounds!  The iridescent hard-fighting grayling, and exotic landlocked char also pack some serious weight.  In the sloughs and along the shores of the many remote lakes surrounding the lodge, you can find the ever-present northern pike, and of a size you only imagined. Sheefish and occasional chum salmon are found in the lower parts of the Chandalar river.

The eastern Alaska Brooks Range boasts some of Alaska's wildest trout waters, many receiving little if any fishing pressure. The potential for trophy size fish of high quality is tops.  Late spring and fall are best for fly fishing and with a plethora of foothill lakes, many untouched pike and grayling populations, you have all the makings of an outstanding Alaska wilderness fishing adventure.

We can specifically customize your fishing adventure to your interests.  It will last a lifetime of re-telling -- or until you come back and visit the part of you that you left north of Alaska's arctic circle!
