Fishing

Togiak National Wildlife Refuge includes coastal bays and lagoons; hundreds of ponds, lakes and streams; and over 30 rivers. Anglers come from around the world to fish for Chinook, Coho, sockeye, chum and pink salmon, Arctic grayling, rainbow and lake trout, Dolly Varden, Arctic char and northern pike. Fishing is open year-round for most species, but the majority of fishing occurs June-September, when salmon are available. Some refuge waters are artificial-lure-only areas, and some have catch-and-release requirements for some species. Many saltwater species inhabit the refuge's coastline, but few sport anglers venture into the hazardous ocean conditions that are common in this area of the Bering Sea. 

The refuge has no developed facilities. Access to the refuge is by aircraft, which can be chartered in nearby Dillingham or Bethel. Access to those communities is by commercial airlines from Anchorage.
