Just about as mint bright as you could order, the boys really kept some dandy's from the river today , it wasn't a ripper of a bite but we just fished and when they showed we picked them off one at a time , good choice of fish, the guys are the bouncing machine's and looking forward already to next year , with such great tides and good fish showing its just a matter of time till that fish of a lifetime shows , hats off boys and good fishing to the Christensen Group for such a fun day on the water in JulyLabels: July Kenai Kings in Alaska
With the fishing heating up, and Don just returning from a week of fishing in Canada, at Great Salve at "ice-out" its going to be a tough road , to try and get some whopper's for the family. Let me tell you with Donnie and the Grand daughters in the boat , the action started out hot and always ended up hot , these girls took right to this King Salmon fishing like a duck to water, but by the time they landed there first one, we want more, rain or shine didn't slow the girls up , Ive have some fun times on the Kenai but its sure fun seeing folks with that first time enthusiasm as we seen for a couple of days in July, hats off and Kudo's to the girls on a job very well done, they ran around the boat when we had a fish on with the nets held high, a little scream once and awhile (the woman's sound) and all the rods layed in place, and even putting the fish with the bat to fish heaven, girls don't change and I'll hope to see you again with Grandpa Don and good luck Labels: July Kenai Kings in Alaska

They showed a little late, this year , but just in time for the first week of the Weyerhouser group, with Peterson and Berkly rally the clients to some more great fishing on the Kenai River , this nice fish was caught pretty early in the day for Berkley to be keeping one, but it was just to good of a fish to roll back, Berkly and Alex were on there toes all week, and we had a special treat Alex brought his Ipod player with the built in speakers, trust me the fishing was good but during the slow time , "stairway to heaven " wasn't bad , it was 5 days of rock -n-roll oldies, and some great solid Kenai River Kings...............good job BerkLabels: July Kenai River Kings
I could go on and on about this week of fishing , but this one picture says it all Little Lars got his first big Kenai King, and had plenty of couching, but that smile says it all . Over the years his Grandpa Doug has put 12 Kings on the wall , along with his Son Lars also, but to see the 3 generation of Noren's tackle the Kings on the Kenai goes unsaid. Lars Jr fought this fish from start to finish on a great tide push at "mud island" and ate one of the fancy painted "G-Spot" k-16 with a wrap, water conditions fell apart for the first super Tuesday in July , but there were fish to go around we just had to work extra hard to get the bites, these were carry over June fish that were still coming in July and there were plenty of them, see you guys next year on another ripping week of Kenai River Kings...........Labels: July Kenai Kings in Alaska
Ray and wife are well seasoned fisherman, and do they like catching kings , there last trip up to Alaska wasn't as good as this one , and they really caught some nice fish in 2008 , the water conditions were still improving daily, and the catching was getting better, a great combination for Kenai Kings, these were some of the most solid slot fish of the season , and this is usually the week for the "big males " but they were still still a few weeks late till they showed , so there were plenty of large females to hunt down , looking for some great fishing without the crowds , June Kenai river Alaska that's the spot, slot limit on our fish is 46" to 55" have to be released but there is a tone of them under the slot , that will just about match wits with any seasoned vet on getting them to the boat , great June and good fishing to the Jennings it's always my pleasure..........Labels: June Kings Kenai River
We had a great group from Mexico the last week of June, with water conditions being tough , but improving daily we made the most of it , everyone caught fish , but had to work for everyone indeed. The boys told stories of salt water adventures and the fight of their salt water fish, till the rods layed down on the Kenai , new set of stories, they loved catching Kenai Kings , and wouldn't these fish were ripping them up as usual the were are the hard strike bite , and that's all takes , you don't have to have a boat load you just need enough, hats off to you boys see you this fall up on the Coos, Ola to you and great fishing......
Water conditions and fish counts continued to improve through the week , with a great ending , we caught some great fish , all under the slot , we didn't have any fish over the slot that were in the 50" range, but there were good amounts of fish in the 40" to 45" size group , Rick's team from Boeing did a great job , see you guys next year, when you get that "big-bird " done good fishing boysLabels: June Kings Kenai River
