DRIVING DIRECTIONS TO IZAAK WALTON BOAT LAUNCH IN STERLING, ALASKA View IZAAK WALTON OR MOOSE RIVER BOAT LAUNCH in a larger map Most trips meet here for Rainbow trout, Silver Salmon and sometimes King salmon fishing trips. Izzak Walton boat launch in located at the moose river bridge in Sterling Alaska. The Izzak walton boat launch and state park has a very nice campground, picnic tables, and outhouses. This is one of my favorite state park facilities located on the Kenai river. The Moose river dumps into the Kenai only a short distance from the boat launch. It is a slow and shallow river and makes it very nice for launching a boat. There is also some great silver salmon fishing here as well when they are running. It is a toss up between meeting here or at bings landing. It usually depends on how busy the boat launch is at bings. If we are headed up river it takes about 15 minutes to pass bings launch up and head on to skilak lake. This is worth it if the wait to launch at bings is very long. Guided Kenai River Trip Rate $250 per person *LARGE GROUPS WELCOME *LODGING PACKAGES AVAILABLE *EXCLUSIVE BOAT PACKAGES -2 PERSON EXCLUSIVE STARTING AT $750.00 A DAY -3 PERSON EXCLUSIVE STARTING AT $950.00 A DAY Hope this helps out and we are looking for ward to fishing with you this year!

Today I got off work, removed my studded tires and got my all terrains back on the truck. After I got my chores done I found time to go and explore a stream here in Anchorage. Ship Creek is a well known Salmon run river that holds a few Rainbow trout too. I didn’t spend much time fishing it but it did produce a couple of small rainbows. I was using a Murray hellgrammite size 10, dead drifting it. That fly seems to produce more fish for me than any other in my fly box! I don’t know if it is confidence or what.. but I tend to tie this fly own my line more times than not when I approach new water. I have never fished salmon in this stream but I understand that it can produce quit a few fish during the peak of the seasons as well.

I’m moving back down to the Kenai peninsula next week to get gear ready for the upcoming season. Dates are booking up fast so if your interested in a 2008 Drift Boat Fishing guide trip on the kenai river, reserve your spots soon. We hope everyone is enjoying the spring and we look forward to fishing with you. Tight lines, Scott Sager www.driftingonthefly.com scott@driftingonthefly.com 907-382-6808
