Spectacular Fly Fishing

Kamchatka has amazing salmon runs and giant Rainbow trout.

The 100 mile long, Two Yurt River system supports a remarkable number of fish. Huge runs of Sockeye and King Salmon draw the Rainbows to gorge on eggs and flesh growing to large proportions. This great river system has many streams and offers every imaginable type of water. When you fly fish Kamchatka you’ll experience everything from freestone pocket water to long spring creek glides.

  • By late June the mighty King Salmon enter the river pulling Rainbow Trout up stream from both the Yelovka and Kamchatka river drainages.
  • From early July to early October, the 50 miles of river below the lake become thick with Rainbows.

Huge Hatches

Caddis Hatch

One reason so many anglers want to fly fish Kamchatka is the extraordinarily huge hatches.

There are various Stoneflies, Mayflies, and Caddis, plus spring and fall Beatis, Green Drakes and Pale Morning Duns. If you fish Kamchatka in July, the caddis hatch can be so heavy it’s an inch thick on the rafts. The dry fly fishing can be astonishing.

Add to that millions of salmon, and you have the recipe for monster Rainbow trout and lots of them. However, depending on when you go, there are lots of Kings, Silvers, Chums, and Dolly Varden.

Stay in Fish Camps along the River

Fly Fishing Kamchatka Fish Camp Meals

Anglers begin and end each day at one of five permanent camps that are spaced a full day of fishing apart.

  • The fishing season on the Two Yurt emphasizes fishing rather than floating.
  • Some of the camps are located more closely together to allow more intensive coverage of prime pieces of water.
  • Each of the camps is 100% supported by cabins.
  • Three guest cabins, hot showers, flush toilets all make this for a comfortable float.
  • Each cabin has a wood stove, electricity and a comfortable bed.

Destination

Kamchatka Penninsula
The Fishing

Kamchatka has extraordinarily huge hatches of various Stoneflies, Mayflies, and Caddis, plus spring and fall Betis, Green Drakes and Pale Morning Duns. Add to that millions of salmon, and you have the recipe for monster Rainbows and lots of them. However, depending on when you go, there are lots of Kings, Silvers, Chums, Grayling and Dolly Varden.

The average Rainbow is 4 pounds, with some weighing more than 6. Fish over 30 inches are caught yearly. The trout on Kamchatka are aggressive.

When to Go

July – This is when you go for King salmon and out-of-this-world mousing for big ‘bows. A 100 fish day on mouse patterns is not unheard of. Also, July is the month of the big Caddis hatches, so you have to choose between mousing and throwing dries…. what a conundrum! The Dolly Varden move up into the rivers in July as well, and you will catch A LOT of them.

August – There are more than a dozen watersheds on the peninsula with big runs of salmon in all of them during this time of year. The rivers are stuffed with different species of fish. Silvers will be coming up the rivers by the second week, and by now the Kings and Chums will be spawning. So, you will target the spawning beds or big trout. They will destroy a mouse or streamer, and there is no need to throw beads.
Food and Lodging

You can rest assured that it will be comfortable. The amenities consist of spacious and comfortable small cabins. They are heated, have electricity, running water, flushing toilets, a drying room, and hot showers. There is also a central dining room.

You can expect hot coffee whenever you want it, or Russian “chai” tea. The menu is American with a touch of Russian. Breakfasts are bacon and eggs, oatmeal or cereal, lunch is usually fresh fish cooked along the bank, and a wide variety of hearty dinners.
Travel

You will fly Yakutia Airlines from Anchorage to Petropavlovsk, Kamchatka. From there, you will meet a concierge who will escort you to a private bus out of the Petropavlovsk valley. They used to fly out of Petropavlovsk but came to understand that the buses are a better option.

You will take a three hour bus ride, on paved roads, to Milkova where you will board the helicopter to camp. You’ll be landing huge Rainbows that afternoon.

Weather days are always possible, but extremely rare.
