What to expect

Cooper Landing Boat Launch

Drift the upper Kenai river with a local professional guide and experience a taste of this amazing fishery. This beautiful stretch of water is nestled between the peaks of the majestic Kenai Mountains in permitted areas of the Chugach National Forest.
We will fish for native Rainbow trout and Dolly Varden char or the seasonal runs of Sockeye and Silver Salmon.
The abundant flora and fauna offer a glimpse of Alaska's natural beauty and wildlife sightings are common. Trout and char are catch and release. Salmon have seasonal limits and cleaning of your catch is complimentary.
