So you’ve been thinking about coming to Alaska or you’ve started planning a trip to Alaska…..but… you have some questions about fishing, area features, or ….well… anything Alaska!  Give us a call or email to chat!  We’ll do our best to answer your questions or “guide” you in the right direction.  We’ve been helping clients figure out when the best time to come to Alaska is for the fish species they desire.  Your guide will instruct you how to fish (if you need instruction!), what the bite or take-down will feel/look like, provide the necessary gear (if you choose not to use your own), and get you some epic memories of those fish you land and reel in! Alaska is stunning all year round, but especially wonderful in the summer time!  Temperatures are just right, colors are brilliant all around you, and the good times will be had!  Call us today to find out more and book your dates! (907) 382-6808 or scott@driftingonthefly.com .  We cant wait to see you up here in Alaska….our playground!

Whoa! The 2020 – 2021 pandemic sure has thrown a doozy at the world, but we’re still going strong! Alaska is open for business and we would love to see you in our boats this year! What a better way to get away from it all by getting out into the beautiful mountains and pristine rivers of Alaska! The fish will be coming upriver and they need you to come catch them! Now’s the time to get out of your “quarantine blues” and into the blue glacier rivers of Alaska. We take every safety precaution necessary to provide a safe, yet epic guided fishing trip when you join us this year. Give us a call or send us an email… we’re ready for you! – Drifting On The Fly

Its May already and time to gear up and head-out on the Kenai River and Kasilof River down in the heart of the Kenai Peninsula in Soldotna, Alaska!  Drifting On The Fly is ready to take you out on the stunning and pristine waters that flow turquoise in color to have your fly rod or spin rod bend in half with anticipation of hooking the elusive Chinook salmon or better know as King Salmon!  These big boys are some the most fun and hard fighting salmon you will hook!  Your guide will tell you exactly what to do in order to give you the best chance at landing these big behemoths!

Maybe your interest are with a species more popular to shoreline fishing…sockeye salmon, or better known as red salmon.  Finding a school of these fish and limiting out is just as thrilling!  They are a delicious slamon that many Alaskans love!  You’ll catch them in a silver color phase, but later on in the season, you’ll see them with bright red bodies with olive green heads…and teeth sharp like a shark!

The King Salmon and sockeye salmon fishing season have a narrow window of time, so if these are species you’ve been wanting to try your hand at, give us a call!  Dates are limited and filling up quickly!  You can speak with the owner and head guide Scott Sager, to discuss your fishing plans!  Drifting On The Fly can set up one day guided fishing trips, multi-day guided fishing trips, fly-out fihing excursions, ocean charters (including halibut fishing), as well as assist in finding lodging.

We hope you’ll join us this season when everyone is screaming “FISH ON!”.  Give us a call and you wont be disappointed!
