Fly fishing for king salmon on the Kenai Peninsula! How about a few busted knuckles? I narrowly escaped with mine intact yesterday while . We were fishing about 100 yards from the
saltwater and when I hooked him, he decided he didn’t like the fresh water anymore. I have to say that I have never had any fish, run that hard in the fresh water! This king salmon took an olive articulated egg sucking leach at the end of the swing.
The fishing has been great this time of the year. The
King Salmon are starting to increase in numbers though it has taken a little while for them to get going. It has been a cool Spring in South central Alaska and this affects everything, even the salmon run. This has however been my most productive Spring season with a fly rod for King Salmon though and I can only hope it keeps going that way.

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.
