About
This is the perfect opportunity for everyone to have a chance to fish the Kenai River. We can always target rainbow trout and dolly varden and when the red and silver salmon are present, we will try for those. Beginners to advanced will enjoy this unique experience - fishing one of Alaska’s fabled waters.
Fly, spin and casting rods are provided and we adjust the trip to each angler’s experience. Anyone hoping to catch a limit of salmon is better off chosing a full day trip as both red salmon and silver salmon are strong fighters and it takes some training to get you both hooking them and landing them...
