Not realy a hunting question

[Preacher shaner]

I will be hunting along the Yukon river this coming September. I want to take some fishing equipment. What do yall recommend. Lures line size things like that. Salmon are a no go where I am going. Would like.to catch anything else.
Thanks

On the koyukuk river we caught pike almost every cast. Pike will attack anything flashy like spoons. Gold and silver or combinations of those worked good for us.

8lb test mono and a medium 2 piece ugly stick with spinning reel. Mepps and Blue Fox Spinners around 1/8 oz. (you can err on the side of caution and get a few slightly bigger and slightly smaller depending on how much tackle you want to carry. Spoons around the same weight.. like the super dupers and such. You want something that isn't extremely heavy so you wont stay hung on the bottom. Curly tail grubs around 2 inch at most and a few jig heads for them.
Its simple fishing.. a handful of spinners and you'll catch whatever is swimming around for the most part. Biggest thing is bring some bright colors and some dark colors as far as the above goes.

Take some wire leaders for pike fishing.

You will have to fish in the sloughs off the main river. In most places along the Yukon have too much slit in the water to fish unless you have a gillnet.

What @hunthayden said is spot on. The water was very high and turbulent when we were there. The sloughs and beaver ponds just off the main channel were clear and chock full of pike. They make for a wonderful change from mtn house for a meal or surf in turf if you get a moose. Bring a shotgun for grouse too.

Wire leaders, 3" gold and silver spoons. If you're in a snaggy area, a worm hook with some 4-5" zoon flukes to make them weedless
