Do you want just an Alaska experiment? Or The Alaskan Experience?



Alaska fishing guide

Professional Alaska fishing guide expert for the Trophy Kenai River King Salmon says that the Kenai River is world famous for big King Salmon fishing Alaska. The 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 seeing others break this one will be grand.

The best way to describe Salmon fishing Alaska, is to compare it to big game hunting at the Kenai River. It's not non-stop action, but it's definitely worth the wait. Nowhere else in the world can you catch King Salmon as big as those in Alaska. If you are up to the battle, fishing guides at the Kenai River are always ready to help bring home the new world record.

The season for the annual Kenai salmon fishing extravaganza begins in May which is the month that the world record was taken by Les Anderson of Soldotna in 1985. July is the peak month for Kenai River King Salmon and the season ends July 31, so be sure to plan your trip with an Alaska fishing guide expert soon!

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!!!
