Fishing: North of Denali it is pike or Grayling, south is is trout and salmon, and some limited Grayling.
Alaska is a loop. Anchorage to Fairbanks, then Valdez, back to Anchorage, then Seward and Homer and back to Anchorage to depart. You can do this in any order, but that is the trip. Fishing in Valdez can be from the shore for salmon. Grayling is a river fish that will hit small spinners or flies. Om the Kenai bank fishing is available for reds, or sockeye, in your time frame. The Trustworthy store in Soldotna is a good source of equipment if you do not have your own.
Camping is a function of the size of the MoHo you rent, the larger it is, the fewer the choices. State and Federal parks tend toward the smaller size vehicles.
Whittier is a nice side trip, drive thru the railroad tunnel. Camping is available om both sides of the tunnel.
Weather is a potential issue. If it is going to be nice, go to Valdez first.
Have fun
