Deshka River

The Deshka River is one of Southcentral Alaska's premier sport fishing streams, with significant runs of Chinook and coho salmon, along with resident grayling, burbot, northern pike, and rainbow trout.

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough owns much of the land along the final ten miles of the Deshka.

The impacts of summer recreational use and tourists have caused loss of riparian vegetation and bank erosion along the Deshka's lower reaches, which has been partially remedied through a restoration project in the summer of 2002.

[citation needed] Heads at the confluence of Kroto Creek[1] and Moose Creek,[2] 3.5 miles (5.6 km) North of Neil Lake, flows south to join the Susitna River.
