Kenai River King Salmon Fishing Guides

Professional Fishing Guides for the Trophy Kenai River King Salmon. The Kenai River is world famous for big King Salmon. Average weight of Kings caught in the Kenai River is 30-60 lbs., with monsters in the 80+ range caught ever year. The Kenai currently holds the King Salmon world record of 97lbs. 4oz. Records were made to be broken, and nothing would make me happier than seeing you break this one.

The best way to describe fishing the Kenai River for King Salmon, is to compare it to big game hunting. It's not non-stop action, but it's definitely worth the wait.

Catch your King Salmon of a lifetime. Nowhere else in the world can you catch King Salmon this big. If you are up to the battle, we are up to the test. Our guides are always ready to bring home the new world record.

July is the peak month for Kenai River King Salmon. Please book early as these seats are booked well in advance of the season.

RELEASE A HOG PROGRAM -- TAKE HOME A TROPHY

1. Most important is to release the King as quickly as possible and to use proper revival techniques.

Kenai River Fishing Regulations
Here are a few rules to keep in mind when fishing on the Kenai River.
 
1. There is no guided fishing on Sunday or Monday during May, June and July. So these are great days for other activities like halibut fishing, Kasilof River fishing, or just sightseeing around the peninsula.
2. You are allowed one king salmon per day, two per season. And don’t forget your king stamp! You are allowed 3 sockeye salmon and two silver salmon, per day. These limits are subject to change by Fish and Game.
3. During May and June you can have 5 anglers on the boat. However in July, you are limited to 4.
4. During silver season (August 1 - October 31), there is no guided fishing on Mondays.

These are just a few of the regulations to keep in mind when planning your vacation!!!
