Kenai River Rainbow Trout Fishing In October

Kenai River Rainbow Trout Fishing in October is a great time to get out and experience the river. The crowds are starting to dwindle and the water levels usually are doing the same.  The weather can get cold and snow will be in the forecast more than likely but the fish will be there. Being new to fly fishing, Sam handled this fish like a pro.  Great Job! When the tempuratures drop we will not remove the fish from the water so there isn’t as high of a mortality rate.  Please respect this and we will do our best to get a quality picture of you catch.  If we plan on harvesting a silver salmon this rule doesn’t apply! Grayling are not a common fish in the Kenai river but we do catch one every once in a while.  Today was the exception, we caught one 8″ arctic grayling today.  Grayling will move into the kenai river later in the season to find food before the long winter sets in. October fishing on the kenai river can be very productive.  Silver salmon are spawning now and the Rainbow trout move right behind them to feed.  If you would like a late season guide trip on the kenai river contact us anytime.

Guided Kenai River King salmon fishing

RICH KETTERMAN KING SALMON Guided Kenai River King salmon fishing has been excellent!  The Kenai river produce a few fish for me today but this was the first catch of the day at 7:00 am.  The last two weeks in July have in the past produced some of the best king fishing of the season and I am pumped up to see what happens next.   We’re fishing harder than we should probably but with the potential of fish like this I can’t keep my boat out of the water.  We run full day guided kenai river king salmon fishing tips for 275.00 per person and will put you in the most productive runs that we can.  I personally like to back troll my best running plugs and spinners below soldotna bridge in search of a trophy king salmon.  If you are interested in hunting the largest of the pacific salmon on the kenai river make sure you give us a call. For Information on how you too can try your luck with kings salmon on the Kenai River in Alasaka with our fishing guide service check out our website at www.driftingonthefly.com. Thanks and good fishing Scott Sager

KENAI PENINSULA GUIDED FISHING

WWW.DRIFTINGONTHEFLY.COM
Kenai peninsula guided fishing for Trophy Rainbow trout fishing combined with sockeye salmon fishing makes for a fun day.  Kenai river king salmon fishing is also available at this time of year. The Sockeye Salmon fishing should pick up again near the end of the  first week of July and be good through the second week of Aug.  That has been the norm for the last few years.  These are hard fighting fish with a built in instinct to trash gear you can plan on some excitement.  If you plan to chase these fish on your own make sure that you put a little extra in your gear so the odds of getting them to shore gets a little better. The  Rainbow trout bite has been very good while fly fishing leeches and minnow imitations.  I like to fish a down and across drift right now with a sink tip line.  The water has been very clear but is now coming up with just a little color. In the bigger water the larger leech patterns show up better and produce the most strikes.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me at www.driftingonthefly.com for your next guided kenai river trip.
