Options for creating your fishing adventure abound, from full-service lodges and resorts, to day charters, to boat and gear rentals for the do-ityourself fisher. Local floatplane operators transport you to lakes, and professional guides offer expert advice to make the most of your trip. • Native species of salmon include king (Chinook), silver (Coho), red (Sockeye), pink (Humpy) and chum (Dog) salmon. • Other prized saltwater species include halibut, red snapper, lingcod and rock cod. Shrimp and crab are also abundant. • Wilderness lakes and streams provide fishing for steelhead, Dolly Varden, grayling, rainbow and cutthroat trout.
