About Chester Creek
Running through Alaska, United States, Chester Creek is the kind of stream that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Chester Creek hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques
- For Rainbow trout
Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
- For Dolly varden
Dolly Varden often hold near structure like fallen logs or undercut banks, so target these areas; vary your retrieve speed until you find what they are hitting.
- For Chinook salmon
Vary your retrieve speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to, as their preferences can change daily.
