A few average fish and a couple of nicer fish made for a good box of fish for my Uncle to take home a share with the family. On a trip out on the boat make sure, even if the weather is nice that you take plenty of extra cloths. Saturday could have been miserable if we were not dressed properly!
After getting your halibut in the box if time allows Tim will try to get you into some king salmon when they are available. Nothing like a Captain will to go the extra mile for you when your on a trip of a lifetime! Thanks Tim,

When on a Kenai peninsula fly fishing trip on small rivers for King Salmon make sure that you try to spend most of your time in a run that will concentrate fish. These fish are moving upstream with the tide so moving around the stream can just waste time. Getting out there ahead of high tide and hang out until the outgoing, this can be the most productive time. Good runs are popular during the peak of the season so staking out your sweet spot in advance is very important.
The Anchor river can be a very productive fishery but for those early season king salmon you may have to put your time in. Be patient and maybe you’ll pick up a mid May fish on the Kenai Peninsula! I have seen days where we get a good push of fish that each angler hooks multiple fish. Once you have decided to harvest a fish you must quit fishing. If you choose to practice catch and release you can fish as long as you would like.

There is nothing big about the trout in Shenandoah nation park but native fish that are thousands of years old and readily taking dry flies makes this fishing as fun as any I have ever done. The beautiful mountain streams can put the most seasoned fishers into a trance. We fished the Rapidan river in Madison county VA on this trip but there are over 50 fish able streams in the park!
Guide John Colman with a nice small mouth on the North Fork of the Shenandoah river. Though the water temperature was colder than we would have liked the fish still cooperated. We caught Small mouth bass, Large mouth bass, sunfish and fall fish.

Fishing for rainbow trout on the kenai river is always on our mind and if you would like to check out more from us visit Drifting on the Fly, LLC. 
We spent a few minutes watching this gravel bar, being above it gives you a real advantage in spotting fish.
This is a picture lower on the gravel bar, you can see how the higher you get the better the chance of spotting a fish. I have been watching fish move on and off of it for a few minutes now. It’s time to get a line wet.
Take the time on your next outing to just watch for a minute and you’ll be surprised on how many fish you start to see.

Jody Steed with a good steel head caught this past week on a wade fishing trip on the Kasilof River.
The Kenai River also produced a few rainbow trout for us on the following day. The skies were clear, air temp was around 50 but we did have to battle the wind all day.
This huge Rainbow trout was caught on an olive, Murray’s Helgramite, size 8. This fly pattern can be found at www.murraysflyshop.com, it works great as a leech pattern in AK as well as for a helgramite/leech pattern for small mouth bass in Virginia. When out this time of year make sure to keep your eyes open for ice floating down the kenai river!
Be sure to contact us at www.driftingonthefly.com when you are looking for your next AK guided fishing trip on the kenai river. We are taking bookings for the upcoming season and will be happy to get you hooked up.

Alaska Kenai river flyfishing in the Spring is a great time of year to get your streamer fix. Fishing on the Kenai river is way different than it is during the summer months. Most of the silver salmon are done spawning by now but there are a few fish still in the river. I only noticed about a half dozen fish last weekend in the area I was fishing. I chose to swing leeches and minnow patterns on this outing. An olive leech caught the only fish of the day.
I was by myself when this nice Kenai river rainbow trout slammed my leech pattern. When the water is this low and clear I spend more time looking for rainbows than I do casting. These fish are spooky and if you can spot a fish and cast to it you are more likely to catch it than just slinging line blindly in the water. Look for flashes, dark shapes, spooked bait fish, spawning salmon, etc. Once you train your eye, spotting fish becomes easier than you would think.
Spring and the kenai river guide season is well on its way now!
