Your Host at Jake's Nushagak Salmon Camp

“If you have always wanted the fishing trip
of a lifetime, this is your opportunity.”
—Host Eli Huffman

Jake’s Nushagak Salmon Camp has been featured in the movie Alaska Outdoors on the Discovery Channel, as well as Larry Csonka’s North to Alaska. Jake’s has been featured in various books and publications such as Alaska Outdoors, Western Outdoors, The Alaska Angler, North American Fisherman, Fly fishing the Great Western Rivers, and others.

Eli Huffman and Bill "Swanny" Swann welcome you to the best King Salmon fishing available anywhere. Eli spent his youth on a farm in Washington State at the confluence of the Columbia and Snake rivers and has been chasing Salmon since childhood. He has been fishing the waters of Western Alaska since the mid 1980s Bill has been fishing the Pacific NW for over 30 years. When Swanny is not in Alaska you can find him fishing Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Bill is on the Pro staff of Wooldridge Boats, St Croix Rods, Pautzkes Bait, Quantum Reels, Power Pro, Simms, Evinrude, and Cabelas. You will often find Bill in their booths at the Sportsmen shows and speaking at seminars all over the Country.

We are both honored to make the trip of a lifetime available to you.

“If your target is Kings and a lot of them we fill that bill”

The Nushagak River has the largest run of King Salmon in Alaska. Upwards of 300,000 and in excess of 20% of the Kings that spawn in Alaska run this watershed yearly. We also have available Chum, Pink, Sockeye, Silver Salmon and regularly catch Arctic Char and an occasional Rainbow.

The first overnight Sport Fishing Camp that was permitted by the Yup'ik Eskimos, we will celebrate our 27th year in 2010.

We offer 6 nights 7 day, and 4 nights 5 day, or custom length stays. We have one guest that hasn't missed a year in 23 seasons. To celebrate his 20th season Larry's entire trip was complementary.

We are extremely excited that you are interested and look forward to the opportunity to spend time fishing with you. We have had guests from England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Holland, Norway, Germany, Turkey, New Zealand, Zimbabwe and South Africa, and most of the 50 states over the past few seasons. We would be honored to have you as a guest.

Come join us for some tackle bustin fishing and see why most of our guests return again and again.
