If you're ready to enjoy fishing on The Kenai Peninsula then book a trip with The River Crew. Having logged many hours on the Kenai River, one of The River Crew guides can tell you all about the local fishery.

Local species include Chinook (King) Salmon, Coho (Silver) Salmon, Sockeye (Red) Salmon, and Rainbow Trout.

You'll target your catch by Back Trolling, Flossing or Drifting.
We use fly rods for Red Salmon and Rainbows but fly fishing experience isn't required.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Child-sized life vests are available and required for anyone under 12. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks and drinks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your guide will bring you aboard our Willie Boat with room for up to 5 passengers. It comes with all the essentials: rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures.

You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation.

Now, time to hit the water with The River Crew!

Hey Daniel, Sorry to hear you had a less then favorable experience out fishing with us. We always do our best to make the experience memorable, unfortunately we can't control when the fish push through or the weather. I would love to bring a little clarity to the specific day you went fishing; The river happened to be a bit dirty from massive rain we got the day before. Your guide chose to stick with the trolling method in hopes that he could create a sent trail since it was visually harder for the fish to see. He did use both Sardines on a plug and eggs on a spin and glow to have different presentations. he also did try moving around the river a little to try to find schools of Silvers coming through. I do know he gave it his best to try to get you on some fish and I am sorry you didn't end the day with more fish. Fishing can be tough at times and other times it can be incredibly easy. I hope you guys have a better experience next time you're on the water!
