South Fork

South Fork1

The South Fork is a nearly inaccessible fork of a very wild tundra river draining into Kuskokwim Bay, an hour flight west of Dillingham. It requires an overland portage and is suitable for the most adventuresome anglers under optimal water levels. The payoff is fishing water that goes months or years between anglers. I am the only one who can safely take you here. Others attempting the south fork have turned back. It requires special equipment and knowledge. Grayling, Rainbow, Dolly Varden, King, Sockeye, Coho, Chum, and Pink Salmon. Extremely remote and wild. Fishes well with mouse patterns.

Testimonials

They acted like horses compared to my Montana spring creek Rainbows Craig Roberts
The coho fishing started strong and just continued to strengthen, peaking by the hour. There was a session with Jim Bean at "Porpoise Flats" that goes down as the BEST 90 minutes of fishing in my life bar none. Really large silvers on every cast, we spent most of the time doubled up. I'm fairly certain there were no two happier people on the planet at that moment. Bob Erickson
There was a hard strike with jumps and hollers to match my excitement. Such magnificent beings these Silver Bullet Coho are. Amy Robinson
In our days floating down the river, we encountered the rainbow trout in its rarest form — completely wild, ferocious and faster than a speeding bullet Paul Greenberg
Not a week goes by that I don't think about my fishing adventures with Mark Rutherford in the most remote, stunning, and productive fishery on the planet, Bristol Bay, Alaska. R.A. Beattie
I told people I was going on the trip of a lifetime and that is exactly what this has been. John Gormley. Togiak River. August 11-18, 2018
A week filled with fish, great food, magnificent camp sites, spectacular vistas, wildlife sightings, fun and, most of all, good people Bob Erickson
Our week was more than a pleasure.  It was a really great experience for both me and the boys.  Can't tell you how much we enjoyed it! Scott Slappey. Goodnews. July 17-25, 2014.
Thank you for the trip of of lifetime & for your fly fishing and casting tips, for your work, your kindnesses, and your good company! Chuck Harris. Kanektok River. August 22-31, 2014
It was a stellar week. Our time on the river strengthened my sense of purpose in life and changed the way I view the world. Bob Roark
