Upper Kenai River
Depending on the time of season, we target Rainbow Trout, Dolly Varden, Sockeye and Coho salmon using fly and spin fishing methods and light tackle. See our Season Dates section for what time of the season is prime for each species. We offer half day trips on the very top 7 miles of river from the outlet of Kenai Lake to Sportsman’s landing. On a full day we can cover more water, and will extend the drift further down river.
There are some class II and III rapids along the Upper Kenai River. They are fun little shots of whitewater in a basically mellow river float. We always respect the water of the beautiful Mighty Kenai River and we put safety first. Everyone aboard our vessels wears a life jacket for the duration of our trips, including our guides. We also wear life jackets whenever we are out on the water, during our personal trips with our family. Kids don’t float, and neither do moms or dads.
