FLYFISHING KING SALMON RIVERS INLET

Fly fishing for King salmon on the open Pacific was considered nearly impossible for years, as many fly anglers believed King salmon were more scent-based feeders that would rarely take a fly. After 15 years of research during the peak months of July and August, Legacy Lodge has found key locations, fly lines, flies, and gear required to target these powerful fish. The calm, protected waters of Rivers Inlet and Calvert Island now stand as one of the premier settings to pursue King salmon on the fly. This video breaks down the technical aspects to help you turn this challenging pursuit into a reality.
