The Experience
The Kvichak Lodge is located approximately 240 miles southwest of Anchorage in southwestern Alaska. The lodge is situated about one half mile from the mouth of Lake Illiamna on 12 acres adjoining the Kvichak River. Lake Illiamna is Alaska's largest lake being approximately 50 miles wide and 100 miles long. This is the only designated Trophy Rainbow Trout region in Alaska. The area is accessible only by plane. To reach us, plan on flying to Anchorage, Alaska. There are several airlines who fly from the mainland U.S. to Anchorage: United, American, Delta, Continental and Alaska Airlines. From Anchorage, you take a charter plane directly to the landing strip at Igiugig, which is one-half mile from the Kvichak Lodge. Once you arrive at Igiugig, our 22' canopied in-board jet boat will ferry you across river to the Lodge.
Tips and Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some helpful tips you should know when shopping for your fishing trip. Ask a lot of questions! Probably the most important question to ask is, What is NOT included in the package? What extra costs are there?? Find out how many new guides will be on staff. Is it necessary to fly-out everyday to get to the fishing spots? If so, what happens when there are bad flying conditions and it is unsafe to fly? Can you still go fishing? What kind of fishing opportunities are there if you choose not to fly out? What are the accommodations like? Are you limited to the number of hours that you are able to go fishing accompanied by a guide? Is there fishing after dinner or after a fly-out? Is the airfare between Anchorage and the lodge included? Is your salmon catch processed for you? Is it shipped to Anchorage for you? What is the guide to guest ratio? Why is the lodge built where it is? What are the advantages to its location? Is the lodge owner/operated?
