Yes Bay Lodge
Alaska Fishing Vacations

Welcome to Yes Bay Lodge!

"The rod doubled over, jerking violently. The tip brushed the water and line screamed from the reel. The old man grabbed the rod and tried to put the brakes on the fish. The halibut had other plans. Line continued to spasmodically strip from the reel. He held on. The fish took line without remorse. Both of the clients were built solidly- yet it was all the elder could do to hang on." Welcome to fishing with Yes Bay Lodge!

Your Alaskan Adventure:

Fishing is at the core of life at Yes Bay but your wilderness adventure is only limited by the size of your dreams.

Saltwater Fishing – All five species of Pacific Salmon run into the river systems around Yes Bay. Whether searching for the knee trembling freight train runs of Kings or the daring aerobatics of Cohos, you’ll find them and everything in between at Yes Bay. Coupled with the sheer power of halibut and colorful variety of rock fish, the lodge has everything you can imagine for your Alaskan saltwater fishing experience.

Freshwater Fishing – A short guided hike up the trail behind the lodge will put you on Rainbow Trout, Dolly Varden, Steelhead and Salmon along the banks of Wolverine Creek. You may opt for Cutthroat trout in any number of watersheds nearby, all accessible by boat and your own two legs. Maybe a floatplane trip to an exclusive lake for Arctic Grayling is your dream. It’s all possible – it’s all up to you.
