Fishing Licence for Grus Lake
Anyone 18 or older needs an Alaska sport fishing licence — the resident annual is about $30; non-residents choose a 1-day (~$25), 3-day (~$45), 7-day (~$70), 14-day (~$105) or annual (~$145) licence. To fish for king (Chinook) salmon you also need a King Salmon Stamp — about $15 resident annual, or $15/$30/$45/$75 non-resident by duration ($100 non-resident annual). Anglers under 18 fish free (resident and non-resident), and Alaska residents 60 and older fish on a free permanent ID card. Buy from ADF&G at adfg.alaska.gov. An Alaska sport fishing licence covers this water (plus a King Salmon Stamp to fish for kings) — it is on ADF&G's GoFishAK sport-fishing list.
Public access
Navigable water in Alaska is public below the ordinary high-water line; most of these waters run through Tongass or Chugach National Forest, BLM or state land, where dispersed camping is allowed with bear-safe food storage — the heavily used rivers (Kenai, Russian, Gulkana) have designated campgrounds and camping limits
Bag, size and gear rules are set area by area and change in-season by Emergency Order — bait is prohibited on many streams, king salmon fisheries (the Kenai especially) have closed entirely in recent years, and wild rainbow trout are release-only on many rivers; always check the ADF&G Sport Fishing Regulations and Emergency Orders for the area
