For the sport-fisherman looking for
lots of action and a great fish for the
BBQ, silvers (Coho) are the salmon of
choice! These eager biters will excite you
with their fast runs and wild jumps, and
our light gear really lets them show their
stuff! With an 8-15 pound average, and an
occasional 18-20 pounder, Kenai and
Kasilof River silvers provide lots of
action, and our fly-outs are the perfect
choice for the adventurous angler looking
for a wilderness day trip!
Silver salmon fishing on the Kasilof
River is a mellow and quiet drift boat
(non-motorized) experience where our
experienced guides will teach you the
nuances of back-bouncing salmon roe for
these aggressive fish. Its a great
trip-challenging but easy enough that even
novices can quickly catch on!
Kenai River silver fishing is done from
our 21 foot custom Willie Boat river sled.
Whether back bouncing salmon roe, pulling
plugs or casting spinners, you are sure to
enjoy a day pursuing these good eating and
great fighting salmon! Since the boat is
nearly always on anchor and the fish quite
aggressive, this is the perfect trip for
children and first-time salmon
fishermen!
Perhaps my personal favorite charter, a
fly-out day trip for silvers offers the
ultimate adventure for those anglers
wishing to combine a scenic float-plane
flight and fantastic fishing, with a more
remote setting. An added bonus is that
these trips offer a great chance of seeing
wild brown (grizzly) bears up close and
personal! (Please click on 'Fly-out Trips'
for incredible photos and more info).
If you are seeking a high-success rate
fishery with lots of action and multiple
hook-ups, then silvers are the species for
you! Numerous destinations, changing
scenery and varying methods make this the
natural choice for the visitor who wants
to get a real taste for all that fishing
Alaska has to offer!
