Craig, Alaska Fishing Report. 2nd of June, 2026.

Time for another fishing report.

We just said good bye to our wonderful friends from Wounded Warriors Outdoors. The trip started out a bit rough with slower fishing and pretty bad weather. Day 2 however was a slam dunk with limits of King Salmon, Halibut and Black Bass. Day 3 started pretty slow but picked up once we found some King Salmon to work on. Things went from zero to sixty when we hit a good school that resulted in a quadruple hook up with all four fish landed. To cap the day off we went hunting for big halibut. As this trip is a donated trip and considered a non charter, there are no size limits to the halibut. Chad was able to hook into a nice meaty 60 pounder whereas Matt and Chris each landed a halibut tipping the scale at a 100 lbs.

I would say King Salmon fishing is fair. There are pockets of fish around Noyes Island but timing is everything. As always the tide has a huge effect on the bite. Which is a bit more noticeable now when we are not seeing the same number of of fish that we will hopefully see here in a few weeks. . The feeling is that we are still in the early part of the King Salmon run, we expect the numbers to start climbing very soon.

Everybody here at Kingfisher Charters & Lodge wants to send a warm thank you to all veterans of this country who sacrificed and fought hard for us to enjoy the freedom that we have. This is our way to give back a little to the ones that gave a lot.
