Becharof Rapids Camp

Becharof Rapids Camp sits on the bank of the Egegik River on the outlet of Becharof Lake 300 miles south west from Anchorage, in the Bristol Bay region. Becharof Lake is the second largest Lake in Alaska. Uninhabited, untouched and pristine, the Lake is a veritable salmon factory.

Southwest Alaska’s premier fly in fishing camp destination is on the Egegik River. Our camp borders the largest Wildlife Refuge in Alaska. The Salmon fishing here is great, it really should be called “catching” not “fishing”.

We have so little fishing pressure on the River with only two small camps on the entire drainage. Float Plane access is limited so you will never feel crowded. Whether you’re a fly fisherman, spin caster or bait caster you will experience fishing Alaska at its absolute finest.

We always take you to the best spots on the river by jet sled. While a lot of our fishing is catch and release, if you want to keep your limit per day that is not a problem. You will fly out of Becharof Rapids Camp with frozen vacuum packed filets .

We fish the Egegik River just a few miles above salt water in fresh water. The fish are in great shape, chrome bright with sea lice. The section of the Egegik River that we fish is always clear and always able to be fished.

It never blows out or gets dirty so don’t worry about the old… “you should have been here last week” excuse. It is always good fishing when the camp is open.
