We have been very busy over the last few weeks and have a lot of great fishing action to report on. First and foremost I wish to extend my congratulations to our longtime friend and former guide Brent Rinker and his beautiful new wife Janelle. They were married on June 13 in sunny California and we wish them …
Where to start. The 2015 fishing season has begun like an avalanche. Which is pretty ironic considering we have had a winter little to no snow. While it is definitely too early to make any predictions of run strength or to be too optimistic about what the remainder of the season may hold, all indications …
2013 Coho return one of the best ever! Through the many years I have guided on the Kenai River, I have seen ups and down in all the salmon returns. This cyclical boom and bust is all part of the salmon’s natural existence, there are good years and there are bad years. This years return …
Looking back on the 2014 fishing season evokes a myriad of special memories. While each and every season seems to take on a life all its own, this past season is particularity unique for a number of reasons.

The late run of Kenai silvers was very strong and fishing was super consistent for these larger, ocean bright silvers. The late run started in very early September and …
As we head quickly toward mid-September there is a lot to share regarding Kenai Peninsula fisheries as change is definitely in the air. Beginning September first, the silver fishery began its annual conversion to the second, later arriving late run silvers but not before e closed out the first run of Kenai silvers with excellent numbers …
Where did August go? Much like the rest of this summer, August has simply flown by and since the last time I posted this fishing report a lot has transpired out on the water. This has been a very peculiar but amazing month so far with an abundance of salmon arriving to the Kenai and …
July seemed to come and go in a flash and it is hard to believe we are already several days into August. We have been very busy with a lot happening here on the Kenai and surrounding waters. King season played out very much like the last few seasons with super low returns and restrictions to …
