Default Fishing in Fairbanks area

The old sage advice we (roff) have always given to someone who want to

know
where to fish: Go to a local fly shop. There must be more than a few in
Fairbanks. I have a friend who was stationed at Ft. Wainwright back about

30
years, and he says there is some good fly fishing (30 years ago) in the

area.

I was stationed at Ft Wainwright 28 years ago, and from what I remember
of the Tanana, I'm in no hurry to go back. The primary species were called
dogfish, they are bottom feeders best taken on woolly buggers and streamers.
Sorry that I can't give you any more info on the area; I didn't have decent
transportation to get out to the countryside, and I forgot the rest.
