Each season the Kenai River produces more trophy size King Salmon than any other river in the world. These consistently great fighting King Salmon average 40 to 60 pounds with many topping the scales at a whopping 80 pounds! According to The Alaska Department of Fish and Game, a 50 lb. King Salmon would be a trophy sized fish anywhere in Alaska, except the Kenai River. Here you have to catch a 75 lb. King to qualify and
BO's can give you this opportunity! The first appearance of Kings in mid May is followed by overlapping runs of Silver, Sockeye and Pink Salmon, extending the season to early October. No doubt about it, anglers set their sights on a new world record here on the Kenai River!.

In addition to Kings you might also want to fish for:
Aggressive biting, average 25-40 lb., most popular
drift boat fisheries of Alaska. In addition the Kasilof River has
great numbers of Silvers, Sockeye and a fall run of Steelhead
Trout.
Native Rainbows in the 8-12 pound class and each year world class
Trout in the 18-20 pound class (catch & release is encouraged to
assure these healthy fish return).
World record 466 lb. Halibut taken August 1987, average 15-75 lb. with trophy catches of 100 to 200
pounds caught every day of the season, running May-September
Ling cod are not the most handsome when caught, at least by human standards. It's kind of a case of "the face only a mother could love." But once you turn the fish into filets and cook them, believe you will be delighted.
We can also arrange for:
Custom smoking & processing of your catch
Mounting of your fish by top quality taxidermist
Float plane fly out trips or other trips requested by you
Comfortable lodging
Halibut fishing out of Homer or Ninilchick
A multi-species exciting Seward Adventure.
