Watch our guided Goodnews River float fishing adventure in action.
The Goodnews River is famous for salmon fishing. All five species of Pacific salmon, Dolly Varden, Arctic grayling, and rainbow trout are found in the river. Our Fishing season is from mid July into September.
As you bask in the peace and quiet, the sound of the float plane gradually fades away. You look around and appreciate the stunning scenery, the crystal clear waters, and the clean, refreshing air. You quickly realize you're miles away from the hustle and bustle of cities, roads, crowds, and phones.
Going on a self-contained float trip down one of Alaska's wilderness rivers is an unparalleled experience. But if you're looking for the ultimate Alaska float fishing trip, the Goodnews River should be on your bucket list. It's widely regarded as one of the world's finest fishing destinations. With the expert guidance of our staff here at Alaska Rainbow Adventures, you'll have the adventure of a lifetime.
The Goodnews River flows through the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge and the Togiak Refuge Wilderness area in southwestern Alaska. Alaska Rainbow Adventures has been chosen as the top operator on the Goodnews River, offering you the best available start dates for a float fishing trip!
