june 16-18

Well we are back fishing on the Kenai River and it is very nice to get off the oars for a few days and back in the power boat. Fishing has not been hot but we have been catching some nice fish thursday was my best day this week hooking seven and landing three. Bait opens tommorrow so fishing should get better.

 

june 19-26

Well this is my first update in a while just been very buisy been fishing  both the Kenai and kasilof rivers the kasilof trips have been more consistent but we have got some nice fish on the Kenai too. However the Kenai has been hard fishing and we all hope to see a improvment this week the water has been clean and the counts good so everyone is scratching there heads.

 

 

 

June 28-July5

I have been fishing the Kenai River mostly with just one trip down the kasilof river in the last week we did get one nice king and one small one however it felt like things were slowing down and probably wont pick back up till the 2nd run kings start coming. As for the kenai it also has been tough catching fish most days but very slow hopefully it will pick up this week.`

 

July6-14

We have been fishing the kenai and its just been hard fishing a few good days but we have had some bad luck with water conditions heavy rains made the river swell up and the water has been high and muddy. However the biger july fish a starting to show and the water is clearing up so things are looking up should see some good fishing soon.

 

July 16-25

Well the big Kenai river kings are finaly in the river and we have had some great fishing in the last ten days with several fish in the 60 lb class we have one more week of kings to go lets hope the good fishing continues.

 

 

 

july 26-31

Well we finished out our final week of king fishing on the Kenai River unfortunatly the fishing was not as good as the third week however we did get some nice king salmon several in the sixty pound class. All in all it was a disapointing king season lets hope for better runs in the future.

 

August 3-4

Well we are back on the Kenai River but know we are chasing silvers the 3rd was our first day and it was pretty good almost got a limit the fourth was a little tougher but still got some nice silvers.

August 5-7

Kenai river rainbows awsome my favorite we been chasing rainbows the last three days pretty good bite with 4 or 5 fish over ten pounds.

aug 8-10

Back on the Kenai River chasing big rainbows again I love that fishing its so fun we caught some awsome rainbows, however we lost one that was unreal had to be in the mid to high 20s heartbreaker.

 

august 11-23

We have been on the Kenai River and the Kasilof River targeting Silver Salmon fishing has been good and we have been getting limits almost every day so think its looking good for a good silver season.
