for
1999. In addition, unusually large King Salmon were caught
in 1998. FishTale anglers caught the two largest King Salmon
on the Little Susitna River that have been caught in the
past fifteen years. This trend of good to excellent King
Salmon fishing is expected to continue in 1999. King Salmon
run from early May through July 13. Andy expects the best
King Salmon fishing to occur between June 1 and July 7.
For
years the Little Susitna River has produced Alaska’s
second largest Silver Salmon sport harvest. Andy reminds us
that mild winters traditionally produce strong Salmon
returns a year and a half later. The past few winters have
been mild, so expect swarms of the high action Silver Salmon
in 1999. Early Silvers arrive the first or second week of
July, but

the
best fishing consistently occurs between July 20 and
September.

FishTale

is recommended to bring rain gear and knee boots, hip boots
or chest waiters.
