Sunglasses, a packed lunch, rain gear, and waders if you have them. If we need them, I can supply chest waders for you. Fishing license and king salmon stamp if applicable.
Any store along the Kenai Penninsula should have fishing license and king salmon stamps but I recommend buying them online at http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/
Nature and timing of course dictate if we see wildlife. On any given day we may see eagles, seals, moose, caribou, dall sheep, mountain goats, black bears, brown bears. Always have your camera near by for these opportunities!
A good quality raincoat is a necessity in Alaska. It is highly likely you will encounter rain at some point if you visit Alaska for more than a day or two. Below you will find the average precipitation for Southcentral Alaska.
6wt – Great all around line size for Rainbow Trout and Dollies. It will handle many of the situations commonly encountered while fishing for these fish on small or large streams. If you are rainbow fishing and only want to bring one fly rod, this is the size you want.
8wt – Okay for rainbow trout and Dolly Varden but a lot of rod for the size flies we typically use for these fish. This is my preferred line size for Silver Salmon.
9wt- Good rod for small Kings Salmon and Silver Salmon.
