Kenai River Rainbow Trout Fishing

copy-of-41.jpg

Kenai river rainbow trout fishing on the Upper river today.  This young man caught one of the largest upper kenai river rainbow trout that I have landed on my boat. Kids should have all the luck! Landing Big upper kenai river rainbow trout on light tackle or fly is a real treat. The current is swift and there are many obstacles that can end a battle with a big fish quickly. So many times a fish like this will out play the most experience fisher person. A long run a couple of jumps and some good luck and this fish fell to the net and got to pose for the camera.  The Kenai river offers good fishing from the start of the system all the way to the end of the system.  Depending on timing and what is happening on the river will determine which section of river we will pursue.  I often fish the upper kenai river in the fall. Guided kenai river rainbow trout fishing trips cost 275.00 per person for walk and wade, drift boat fishing or power boat fishing. Tight Lines, Scott Sager Drifting On The Fly, LLC

ALASKA WINTER

Alaska winter and The holidays have passed and the normal routine, and pace, of life has returned. The snow continues to fall right now as I look out the window and the temperatures are in the upper teens. As January marches on with every phone call or email discussing the 2008 fishing season, I feel the growing itch to get out and Go FISHING on the kenai river! However, I think some Snowshoeing and Skiing will scratch my itch for a while longer (and will certainly contain my energy levels!)… For the comraderie, maybe a little ice fishing?
