ALASKA DEPT. OF FISH & GAME JUNE IS “CATCH YOUR SELDOVIA KING MONTH” The City of Seldovia is a historic harbor-front village nestled in a stunning glacier-carved bay, just a short distance across the bay from Homer. In addition to seasonal events, nature tours, art galleries, wonderful dining, and lodging accommodations, Seldovia also has excellent fishing for Chinook or king salmon. Annually since the late 1980s, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game has stocked about 100,000 Chinook in the Seldovia slough. After spending 1 to 4 years in the ocean, the Chinook returns to the slough in late May to mid-June. These salmon average 8 to 17 lbs. and can weigh up to 30 lbs. To celebrate this unique fishery, the City of Seldovia has declared June as “Catch Your Seldovia King Month.” Anglers of all ages can fish for these prized kings from many easily accessible locations that are short walking distances from the harbor or airstrip. Getting to Seldovia has many options. The Seldovia Fast Ferry departs the Homer Harbor daily in the late morning and returns in the afternoon around 4:30. You also can take a water taxi, or Smokey Bay Air has daily flights for stunning aerial rides to the Seldovia airstrip.
