FISHING

There are five species of salmon (king, coho, sockeye, chum and pink) which migrate to their spawning rivers and streams in our world-class fishing grounds.

The current sport-caught record-holding coho weighing 26 pounds was caught here in Icy Strait .

And speaking of records, just around the corner from Hoonah, a 440 pound world-record halibut was caught.

Freshwater fishing is also superb. Streams abound in season with cutthroat and rainbow trout, dolly varden char and steelhead, as well as salmon.
