Denali Anglers - Trout

The much sought after "rainbow trout". Our rainbows vary greatly in coloration from drainage to drainage, and from spring spawning colors to fall colors. Sizes also vary through-out the season with the biggest of fish being caught just before "freeze up" in late September and early October. This is the prime period for these big fish as they gorge themselves in preperation for winter. We typically fish these with a steelhead style set-up fished on a 5-7 wt. flyrod. The river will also hold a multitude of Arctic Grayling and Dolly Varden during this time of year, both which provide an added thrill to the fishing experience. The Dollies can sometimes rival the Rainbows in size with the Grayling coming in much smaller but with some still reaching 20 inches.
