COLD WEATHER FISHING

Cold weather fishing on the kenai river! Need a fishing fix? The Kenai River has good wintertime Dolly Varden fishing ,rainbow trout and is low enough to easily wade fish, unless your rod ends up like this one. I am afraid it’s there until Spring Break-Up??? Guided Kenai River Fly Fishing with a fly rod that’s not frozen in it’s holder When the temperatures dip and the snow falls we tend to slow down a little and wait until the warmest parts of the day to go fishing.  Daylight isn’t as long now and we have to make the best of the last few trips of the year.  Mostly steelhead fishing and rainbow trout on the kenai river is what we prefer but don’t count out some late season silver salmon fishing.  This can make for an exciting day out on the water and casting longer distances can keep a guy warm!.

KENAI PENINSULA STEELHEAD FISHING

    alaska steelhead fishingKenai peninsula steelhead fishing trips are offered for both the fly angler and the light spin tackle angler.  Drift boat trips and walk and wade trips are our preferred ways to pursue these hard fighting fish.  Warm clothing, hand warmers and perseverance have paid off recently on the Kenai Peninsula Steelhead fishing streams. Beads or leeches fished dead drift or down and across streamer style with a Teeny 200 if the streams are too high. In other words – typical finicky Steelhead fishing but the catching has been good.  The steelhead run seems to be steady and the only thing that gets in the way is ice in our guides though the last few days haven’t been that cold though. The middle river section of the Kenai continues to be great for nice, fat rainbows trout.  The dolly Varden are mostly gone now, off to do the spawning thing up the tributaries. So it is just you, the silver salmon, and the rainbows trout as far as fishing on the kenai river in concerned. Booking a kenai peninsula steelhead fishing trip with us is easy.  Give us a call and we will work with you to design a trip that is perfect for you. Tight Lines, Scott Drifting On The Fly. LLC
