Kenai river Rainbow trout fishing today was great but the weather was not so good. Fighting the wind has me all over the place and of course keeping the boat on the right drift is always tricky in the wind.. The group I have had for the last two days chose to work with spinning rods instead of fly rods. They had great success and really enjoyed the days on the water.
No matter the style of equipment you choose to use, keeping a good steady pressure is key to landing your catch.
A solid 24 inch kenai river rainbow trout caught today.
I look for the
rainbow trout fishing to be great all the way until freeze up this year. If you are interested in a day on the water this season or would like to talk about a future trip give us a call at

Off to fish the kasilof river in the morning for
silver salmon.

Wayne is eating again, I think he should fish more!
A few eagles feeding along the Kenai river, we also saw a brown bear fishing along the river as well. I was able to maneuver the boat close enough for my guest to get some great photos. Wildlife along the Kenai river is abundant and you never know what you might see on a day trip with us.
This young Alaska brown bear was really trying hard to catch a fish and finally did. I think he will winter just fine.
Kenai river Rainbow trout fishing was good today again and I hope it continues through the whole fall. Our fish have enough of a food source to hold them over for a long time this year with the pink salmon in the river. Pink salmon show up on the kenai river on even numbered years.
The guys caught lots of fish today and managed to hang a very large fish but didn’t land it. The opportunity to catch a world class rainbow trout is very high on the kenai river with fish caught daily 24-28 inches and an occasional 30 inch plus fish.
