The waters surrounding Juneau hold every type of salmon. Combine the fishing and
the beautiful mountain scenery and you have a perfect vacation destination. King
(chinook) salmon are here in bunches and they are huge. The silver (coho) salmon
flourish here as well. They are known for their superior strength and fighting ability.
Halibut fishing is also good in Juneau. Halibut over 100 pounds are common here.
Dolly Varden, cutthroat and steelhead trout are found in the rivers, lakes, streams and
saltwater shoreline areas. The Gastineau Salmon Hatchery stocks Twin Lakes each
year with small salmon, which gives you another option for fishing. Fly-fishing is very
popular here as well. The opportunities for fishing are endless in Juneau, Alaska.
