Rainbow King Lodge Iliamna, Bristol Bay

Location, location, location! The village of Iliamna, where the lodge is located, is dead center in what many experts feel is the greatest Rainbow trout fishing region in the world.

Within a short flight, or quick jet-boat ride, lies world-renowned trout fisheries like the Newhalen, Talarik Creek, Moraine, Gibraltar, Funnel, Copper, Kvichak, Battle, Branch, Kukaklek, the American- and the list goes on. The trophy waters of the Lake Iliamna and Katmai Basin offer one of the best chances in the world to hook and land a wild rainbow trout in excess of 10 lbs. Rainbow King Lodge also holds private access leases on a number of small trout streams with epic trout populations – they have to be experienced to be believed! As well, for those who would like to bring home some fresh fish filets, they have options to fish conventional tackle (provided) for kings on the Nushagak, using Willie Predator jet sleds, and even an opportunity to catch some halibut off the nearby coast.
