Intricate Bay Lodge

FreshwaterLake Iliamna — Intricate Bay, near Iliamna

Fly-outs, jet boats and float trips all run from this Orvis-endorsed lodge on Lake Iliamna near the Copper and Gibraltar rivers. Rebuilt in 2014 after a fire, it fishes mainly for rainbow trout, along with salmon, char, grayling and pike, and supplies rods, flies, waders and boots. Iliamna is a dry village, so any alcohol has to come with you.
