Bumper Bristol Bay Sockeye Surge - 2025 Fishing Report
Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Bristol Bay fishing report for today, Saturday, June 7th, 2025.
The sockeye surge continues in full swing around Bristol Bay! We're seeing fantastic numbers with the forecasted inshore run at approximately 49.8 million sockeye this season. The big news this week is the continued strong showing with catches dropping off slightly from their peak but still maintaining healthy numbers.
Let's talk tide conditions for today. At Port Moller, we've got a low tide at 2:40 AM measuring 5.01 feet, followed by a high tide at 7:50 AM reaching 8.51 feet. Later, expect an afternoon low tide at 3:05 PM that's practically at sea level at just 0.03 feet, and the evening high tide peaks at 10:21 PM hitting 9.37 feet. First light is at 5:58 AM with sunset way late at 11:24 PM – giving you plenty of fishing time!
The Naknek-Kvichak district continues to produce the majority of the daily harvest, with fleet-wide catches over a million fish earlier this week. If you're heading out to the Nushagak area, be aware that biologists have been concerned about meeting escapement goals due to those weaker 2019 and 2020 brood years.
For those targeting kings, they've been spotted in all terminal areas around Juneau. However, note that king salmon runs to the Togiak River have been below average for several years, and we're expecting another poor run this season.
Hot spots today: I'd focus efforts on the Naknek River, which has been consistently producing. The Wood River system is also showing promise with its escapement goal range adjusted upward this year. For those looking to avoid the crowds, the Alagnak River is worth checking out if you can get there.
Gear recommendations: With sockeye being the main attraction, your best bet is a size 4 to 6 fly in bright red or orange. Flash flies with a bit of pink have been especially effective in the early mornings. For conventional gear, pixee spoons in red/silver combos and small spinners have been getting action. Remember that mesh size is restricted to 5.5 inches or smaller between June 15 and July 15 to conserve king salmon.
If you're planning to fish the Togiak District, remember the regulations: the Togiak Bay Section is open four days per week, the Kulukak Section two and a half days, and the Matogak, Osviak, and Cape Peirce Sections five days per week.
