The Kenai Peninsula
Kenai Peninsula Fishing Spots
Lower Kenai River
Hey, anglers! This is the Lower Kenai River. It’s a great place to bring your boat if you like to fish for rainbow trout, steelhead (ocean-run), and Dolly Varden. The Lower Kenai River has abundant food sources that attract large-sized fish. These fish gorge themselves on small fish, salmon eggs, and salmon carcasses.
Middle Kenai River
The Middle Kenai River is a must-fish—starting at Bing’s Landing and ending at Skilak Lake, the watershed holds huge rainbow trout, steelhead (ocean-run), and plenty of salmon. This means while you’re floating upstream, you might want to experience this different territory. It’s not just drift only, but motor too!
Lower/Upper Kasilof River
Tired of the same old thing? Adventure awaits you on the Kasilof River. The river is cold and swift with powerful current, but if you’re up for a challenge, the Kasilof River is perfect. It’s not for the faint of heart, but if you feel ready, it will be unlike any other adventure you’ve ever experienced.
