On a summer vacation to Alaska in the early 2000s my son and I spent a few days in Talkeetna, AK which was also a stop on our latest vacation in 2021. On the prior visit to Talkeetna, we discovered that Montana Creek is an excellent spot for fishing. In summer, the salmon are so thick catching them often requires no bait.
