Experience The Joy of Fishing The Goodnews!
Alaska Rainbow Adventures is the ultimate choice for your next fishing adventure in Alaska! With more than 30 years of experience in providing guided Alaska float fishing trips, we are among the pioneers in the field. Our world-class service and highly skilled team of experienced guides have earned us an impeccable reputation that is unmatched in the industry.
We hold a special use permit that allows us to offer the best start dates for float fishing trips on the Goodnews River, which is one of the best fishing rivers in Alaska. The river's shorter length of only sixty miles provides more opportunities for wading than others in the area and is still large enough to float comfortably, making it the perfect destination for a Alaska float fishing adventure.
The Goodnews River is home to all five species of Pacific Salmon, Arctic Char, sea-run Dolly Varden, and resident Leopard Rainbows and Grayling, making it a paradise for anglers. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner, we will tailor our services to suit your unique requirements and provide you with a memorable fishing trip.
July is the best time to experience the most varied of fishing, with King, Chum, Sockeye, and Pink Salmon. Pink Salmon returns in even-numbered years. When August arrives, Coho or Silver Salmon arrives, and they are available until September. Late July offers the perfect opportunity to catch all five species of Pacific Salmon. The Goodnews has plenty of big fish, including big Leopard Rainbow Trout, Sea Run Dolly Varden, and plenty of Arctic Grayling.
The Goodnews River traverses the 4.7 million-acre Togiak National Wildlife Refuge, and we encourage our guests to respect the refuge's natural heritage, resources, and the people who reside there. Our trips are designed to ensure minimal impact back-country adventures that are both educational and enjoyable for our guests. So, if you're looking for an unforgettable fishing experience in Alaska, the Goodnews River should be your top pick!
We maintain a 2-1 guest-to-guide ratio in the rafts with front and rear seating, ensuring you receive personalized attention from our experienced guides. We encourage group effort and participation, such as unloading your bags from the rafts and setting up and taking down your tent. However, we can provide that service for a small additional cost. Anglers can rotate guides daily, enabling everyone to fish with each staff member if desired.
We want you to have the best time possible, which is why we've made sure to offer comforts that will make your journey truly unforgettable. Our spacious tents can comfortably accommodate two anglers, and every tent is equipped with chairs and comfortable cots, ensuring that you have a relaxing retreat after a long day of fishing. We also provide a lavatory facility with a privacy tent, along with limited showers.
We're excited to let you know that our team has upgraded our custom-built dining tent and screened area that can comfortably accommodate the entire group for dining or as a gathering place. We understand that the weather can be unpredictable, but don't worry, all our tents are made in Alaska to withstand extreme weather conditions, ensuring that you stay warm, safe, and dry throughout your stay.
