Kamchatka-We offer access to the world’s finest Rainbow Trout rivers. Our goal is to bring you an unparalleled fishing experience for large, wild, surface feeding, native Rainbow Trout. In addition to Bows, the peninsula also hosts six species of Pacific Salmon, trophy Grayling and multiple species of Char. Starting in early June, King, Chum, Sockeye Salmon and sea-run Dolly-Varden flood into the rivers.

Scientists know that Rainbow Trout developed on this peninsula before migrating eastward to Alaska and the Pacific Northwest . The Rainbows of Kamchatka are fortunate compared with their Alaskan brethren. Being further south with warmer weather patterns allows for a significantly larger biomass. This food-rich aquatic environment has created a fishing mecca. A stream sample was conducted and we realized that daily insect hatches of mayflies, caddis and innumerable types of stoneflies keep these plump fish looking to the surface for food. Golden and black stone flies, a mayfly population that is diverse and extraordinarily dense, spring and fall Beatis, Green Drakes and Pale Morning Duns name just a few. This bug factor in conjunction with a huge salmon population accounts for the absurd numbers of Rainbows.

The most often asked question is "How big are the fish?" The average Rainbow is close to 21-inches and 5 pounds, with many exceeding 24-inches and 7 pounds. In recent seasons several over the 30-inch mark were landed. Rainbow sizes like this are a true treasure and testament that these fish populations are exceedingly healthy.

The styles of fishing we use vary as greatly as the types of fish we catch. At times swinging a streamer is the most productive method, but often a mouse pattern will out-produce all other techniques. One thing is certain; there is no need for heavy sink tips or leaded flies. Consider that both of our rivers see less angling pressure in a season than virtually any quality Rainbow stream in Alaska will see on a normal weekend. You will not catch fish missing facial parts nor will fish behave as if they were caught earlier in the day. The Rainbows of Kamchatka are aggressive, often chasing your mouse patterns right to your feet. There is absolutely no need to fish plastic beads like so many of the Bristol Bay lodges. Our entire season we fish with real flies, mice, streamers and dries on floating lines with heavy leaders.With The Best of Kamchatka you will enjoy mile after mile of river during your stay. Each day on the Ozernaya River you and your guide have over twenty-five jet-boatable miles of Rainbow infested water to enjoy. Floating the Two Yurt River between stationary camps you will fish arguably some of the world’s most beautiful river miles. Our fishing program is designed to make the most of these amazing resources with conservation for the future in mind. We practice strict catch and release for all Rainbow Trout.
