Drift boat anchor

Posted on June 14, 2012 by Drifting-admin

If you ever loose an anchor and don’t have a spare, improvise by using a rock as a drift boat anchor. This guy said he just prefers a rock anchor over a lead anchor so he uses it all the time!

Guided Kasilof river king salmon fishing trips are a lot of fun. You never know what you are going to see or experience. Tight lines, Scott sager drifting on the fly

Kasilof River Guide

KASILOF RIVER KING SALMON FISHING — WWW.DRIFTINGONTHEFLY.COM

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

Kenai River Guide Trip

Posted on July 9, 2008 by Drifting-admin

A popular Kenai river guide trip is for Sockeye Salmon, We offer many fishing opportunities in July and August for sockeye salmon. Some of the best gravel bars are accessible on the middle kenai river. We fish here almost exclusively during the peak of the sockeye salmon runs. We look for the Sockeye salmon fishing to pick up in the next few days also. Usually by July 14th the fishing is very good. Limits are 3 per person a day until the escapement is reached and then it is usually bumped up to 6 per person!

Second run king salmon are here. Fish have been showing up in good numbers now and you should be able to snatch on to a king if you put the time in. Both the Kenai and Kasilof have fished well for me the last couple of days. Quick fish worked best on the Kenai river and Spin and glows with a glob of eggs have been best on the Kasilof river for us.

JODY AND HIS KASILOF KING SALMON — WWW.DRIFTINGONTHEFLY.COM

Drifting on the Fly, A Kenai peninsula fishing charters. One Great trip we offer is a guided charter on the Kasilof river. The Kasilof river has good steelhead, king salmon, sockeye salmon and silver salmon runs! We offer guided trips for all of the above! King salmon fishing on the Kasilof river was fair yesterday, with some bigger tides pushing in this week we are expecting the fishing to pick up even more. The egg bite is on, most of the fish are being caught on spin and glows with a small glob of eggs.

The Ninilchik river is now open for the remainder of the month for king salmon fishing. I recommend those that are interested in trying to catch a king salmon on the fly rod to search there. You’ll be able to find the most fish pushing in with the tides so pay attention to what’s going on there or we will be happy to provide a guided trip on one of the kenai peninsula’s rivers for you.

If you have any questions or would like to book a trip this season we are still taking bookings. You can reach us at www.driftingonthefly.com for your next guide trip!

Thanks and tight lines Scott Sager
