Katmai's runs are a condensed version of all of Alaska, Chinook in mid-June, Silvers into August, on the famous Naknek River just outside our door.
Five salmon return to the Naknek across the season. Pick one and see when it runs, how big it gets, and how it's fished, so you know what the river is doing when you visit.
The Naknek runs all season, and it's a big part of why the bears gather here. Katmai B&B is a bear-viewing bed & breakfast, our stays are built around Brooks Falls and the bears.
