How to Get to our Remote Alaska Fishing Lodge
Getting to Salmon Run Fishing Lodge is part of the adventure! Your Alaska fishing trip begins with a floatplane ride from Juneau to Excursion Inlet, where the lodge rests just 40 miles west of the capital city. Remote, and only accessible by boat or float plane, our location gives you the best of both worlds: untouched wilderness and the comfort of a family-run lodge. From the moment you step off the floatplane, you’ll feel the magic of Alaska at its most authentic.
Why our guests keep coming back:
The lodge has been proudly owned and operated by the Copinga family since 2017. We specialize in hosting smaller groups of up to 16 guests each week, a number we’ve found to be ideal for truly enhancing the guest experience. This intimate setting enables us to tailor our assistance and advice to ensure that each visitor can fully immerse themselves in the Alaskan adventure they have always envisioned.
While we primarily focus on fishing, our deep love for the region inspires us to offer a variety of activities to our guests. These include hiking, swimming, sauna steam sessions, berry picking. and exploring uninhabited islands, among others.
We are immensely grateful for the opportunity to live and work in this breathtaking location, and we cherish the lifelong friendships we have cultivated through our little fishing lodge.

The transit to and from, the location, the equipment and most important the family staff were unparalleled to many of his other adventurers by far!
