Susitna River & Little Susitna River King Salmon Crisis
Miller's Riverboat Service LLC has specialized in fishing for King Salmon in the State of Alaska since the 1970s. King salmon fishing opportunities in the state of Alaska are a mere shell of what they once were. State of Alaska license sales are down. In 2007, an accredited in depth economic study acknowledged sportfishing was the second most important industry to the economy of Alaska; hardly likely now. Bad management, lack of answers, no forethought, ignorance of accredited scientific information are the reasons; Miller's Riverboat Service in conjunction with the majority of Alaskans and visitors lack the confidence in the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, to properly manage and recover King Salmon stocks in the State of Alaska. How bad is the King Salmon problem in the State of Alaska, well bad enough to not even allow single hook artificial catch and release fishing. We are challenging State of Alaska management to have a change in behavior concerning management of King Salmon by developing a recovery plan. We are asking for help from powerful organizations to get the train back on the tracks.
This is a crisis and without excuse, because Alaska has largely pristine habitat without dams and roads. The Susitna drainage is largely roadless, pristine and clean water-- epic spawning habitat is available. So what is happening. King Salmon spend the majority of their life cycle in the ocean and the longest lived Pacific Salmon species?
In Addition to King salmon guided fishing trips that are no longer available, Miller's Riverboat Service specializes in fishing for Silver Salmon, Chum Salmon, Pink Salmon, Rainbow Trout, Dolly Varden, Arctic Char and Arctic Grayling. Miller's Riverboat Service offers guided jet boat and raft float fishing in Anchorage, Wasilla, Palmer, Willow, Big Lake and Talkeetna. Miller's Riverboat Service offers fully guided fishing trips on the Deshka River, Willow Creek, Kashwitna River, Talkeetna River, Susitna River, Little Susitna River, Big Lake and Finger Lake. Miller's Riverboat Service specializes in fly fishing, spin fishing and bait cast fishing.

King Salmon Fishing- Susitna River Tributaries and Little Susitna River
Little Susitna and Susitna River tributary (Talkeetna River, Deshka River, Willow Creek, Little Willow Creek, Lake Creek, Kashwitna River, Chulitna River) King Salmon Fishing with Ben Allen of Miller's Riverboat Service. After going for a run in Wasilla, Alaska in sub in -5 degrees, I had King Salmon on my mind, when I got home I compiled a few videos and even pulled the workout music I was listening to for the background. King Salmon are my passion---really the reason I live in Alaska. Matsu King Salmon are in serious decline and sadly the State of Alaska has absolutely no plan or vision for recovering these King salmon. Given the circumstances, Miller's Riverboat Service guides Silver salmon, Chum Salmon, Pink Salmon, Arctic Char, and Rainbow Trout Charters. We now do a lot of guided Rainbow Trout fly fishing trips near Willow, Talkeetna, Wasilla, Palmer and Anchorage, Alaska. I look forward to the day when King salmon are abundant enough to target and offer guided trips for.
