Flathead Catfish
Venturing to Dillingham, Alaska, in search of Flathead Catfish would be a misguided fishing trip. The cold, glacial-fed rivers and lakes of this region are completely unsuitable for these warm-water loving fish. Flathead Catfish require significantly warmer temperatures and slower-moving, often murky, waters to thrive. The Nushagak River and its surrounding waterways are known for their pristine conditions and strong currents, ideal for salmon and trout, but a death sentence for Flatheads. You're far better off targeting the abundant salmon runs or the resident trout and char populations. Save your catfish aspirations for locations much further south with warmer climates and suitable habitats.
