Full-Day Upper Kenai River Guided Fishing Trip

Overview

Fish in one of the most beautiful settings on earth with us! Rare permits give us the ability to share this entire stretch of river with you.
Experience the upper Kenai river on an 8 hour full-day guided fishing trip in 20 foot custom drift boats sometimes stopping in the best places to do some Kenai River wade fishing from shore.
Fly fishing and spin fishing in small groups provides a personalized experience with your seasoned local guide/instructor Mike Adams. Enjoy the Chugach National Forest and/or the upper Kenai National Wildlife Refuge with the chance of seeing the local wildlife that abounds here.
Fishing on the upper Kenai River is an unparalleled experience. Fishing for native Kenai River rainbow trout and dolly varden char is an excellent choice. Cooper Landing salmon fishing is also fantastic during our two Kenai River sockeye salmon runs and our two silver salmon runs.

This was my third year fishing with Mike and I can truly say he is the best! He has always been prompt and ready to fish. Mike is a great tutor, environmentalist, and his fishing gear is top notch. The first order of business is a safety orientation which all guides should take more seriously. Thanks Mike!

What an awesome trip! I live in Alaska and had family visiting from Virginia. The three of us went with Mike on a rainy Monday morning and CAUGHT SO MANY SALMON!! My niece had never been to Alaska before, had never fly fished, had never caught a salmon and after some instruction from Mike about how to do it, she was the first one to catch a fish! And boy was she happy about it!! Her Dad had never salmon fished before either and it wasn't long before he caught his first fish too! Needless to say, they are hooked!! At times they both caught one at the same time, keeping Mike busy with the net. He is a first class guide all the way- knows the places to go, gives good instruction and filets your fish at the end. As we started to wrap up the day, Mike said it would be a 45 minute float or so back to the cars and we'd look for wildlife. No sooner had he said that, then my niece said "bear!! bear!! bear!!", and a few hundred yards down river from us was a brown bear chowing down on a salmon it had just caught. Thanks for everything, Mike!!

Mike is a great fishing guide. We had a successful trip catching plenty of salmon and trout. We had a really good experience with him and would highly recommend this trip.
