Kenai river sockeye salmon fishing

Drifting on the FlyALASKSA AND KENAI RIVER SALMON FISHING

Started the day of with a father daughter and father son kenai river sockeye salmon fishing trip. The kids were out of bed early and happy the be going fishing. We pulled into a good gravel bar on the Middle Kenai river to start our fishing trip Fish pushed by steadily and we managed to get a few. With a little assistance the kids each got a couple fish.

Chrome Sockeye salmon are the best to eat.  They are not as desirable the longer they are in the river.

Today’s trip was won on a free drawing at the Matanuska valley sportsmans show here in Alaska. I donated this trip the the Mat-su valley medical center to raffle off in their booth. Jeff Anderson of Alaska won the trip for 4 on the Kenai river. The kids were a blast catching sockeye salmon on the Kenai river today and I look forward to having them back on the boat.
