Tikchik Narrows Lodge

FreshwaterWood-Tikchik State Park — Tikchik Narrows, between Tikchik and Nuyakuk lakes

Tikchik Narrows Lodge was founded in 1969 on a rocky point at the narrows between Tikchik and Nuyakuk lakes, inside Wood-Tikchik State Park. Three Beavers and two Cessnas fly guests to rivers across western Bristol Bay, and the lodge runs an out camp on the upper Nushagak. Fly and spin anglers both fish here, with tackle supplied for each; resident game fish are released, while some sockeye, silver and king salmon may be kept.
