These chrome Kasilof river king salmon where caught on the incoming time on both plugs and spin and glows with cured salmon roe. Tides heavily influence our start times in the morning. When you are booking a guided kasilof river king salmon fishing trip we will discuss our start times then or we will wait until the time of the trip gets closer to determine the timing of the start.
Pay attention to what the tide is doing and you’ll be sure to find fish moving around. I’ve found that the incoming tide has produced the best fishing this week.
If you are interested in guided fishing on the Kasilof river this spring for Alaska King Salmon give us a call here at Drifting on the Fly. We have many different types of fishing trips available and are happy to line you up on an experience that would fit your needs. Kenai river king salmon trips are available as well.

Landing a Kasilof river King Salmon sometimes requires getting out of the drift boat. We will do our best to put you in a position to get your catch into the net.
Tagging your license is the first thing you have to do once you decide to harvest a king salmon. In June, when kasilof river king salmon fishing you are allowed to harvest two king salmon a day. One of which has to be a hatchery fish or both can be hatchery fish.
You have to love the long sunny days in June and why not be on a productive king salmon river while you enjoy them.
An 18 inch leader with spin and glows have been working best for my boat. 1st run King Salmon on the kasilof are often between 15 and 30 pounds.
Plugs are producing fish also. If you have good running plugs be sure to expect some great take downs! Call now to book your guided Kasilof river King salmon fishing trip!

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.

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.

If you are looking for a good, dependable, and knowledgeable Kasilof river guide, look no further! I have spent many days through out the last 8 years studying and fishing the Kasilof river. We will put you in the best runs that we can and give you the best opportunity to catch a fish of a lifetime. King Salmon on the Kasilof river can be a challenge to catch but with some patients and good coaching I am confident that you will have a successful trip.
This week proved to be another good week for the Kasilof River for King Salmon fishing. The Dewey family did some back trolling out of the drift boat on Monday with me and this fish flat out smoked us. It hit a smaller pink cheater with a little glob of cured eggs. The river has finally come up to normal level and we have had to start fishing with size 40 jet divers. This kasilof river is mainly a terminal gear fishery but it is still a drift boat only river which makes for a relaxing day.
Congrats to Eric and Kelly we wish you two the best and good luck with the upcoming wedding.
thanks guys and see you next year
