Alaska Steelhead Fly Fishing Trip

We think this is the best Alaska steelhead fly fishing guide. They deliver for our clients year after year…and if you’re a steelhead fisherman, you know that’s a tall task. Alaska has high numbers of fish, and this area of the Kenai peninsula has extremely low steelhead fishing pressure. Add to that amazing Fall weather, we think this is the premier steelhead fly fishing destination in the world for anglers of all abilities.

The fishing takes place on 3 main rivers located on the Kenai Peninsula.
Swinging can be done effectively with a single-handed rod, although we do prefer to swing with switch rods using smaller sinking tips or weighted flies.
To put fish in the net, nymph rigs are the preferred method.
One of the rivers is glacial fed from a lake, so it can’t be blown out, which is always a concern when booking any steelhead fishing trip.
The lodge and cabins are only 15 to 30 minutes to good steelhead fishing.the take out where you will meet your guide.

A trip to the Kenai Peninsula offers anglers the opportunity to fish three very different rivers for fall run steelhead. What are the names of those rivers you say? Well, you’re not going to find that out until you go see them for yourself! What we will say is that one river boasts the largest steelhead run on the Peninsula. These rivers are highly coveted by local anglers and guides and we intend to keep them as pristine and special as possible.

The three rivers are all very diverse and offer different angling opportunities on each.

Two of these rivers are walk and wade fisheries and the third which boasts the largest run of steelhead on the peninsula is much larger and fished from drift boat along with wading the many gravel bars and runs. We can not say the name of this river in order to protect the fishery and keep it as pristine as possible can not blow out!

The fear of many steelhead anglers when planning a trip is the possibility of heavy rains and a river that blows out while on your trip of a lifetime. This does not happen here!
