Reports will resume in 2009. We will have the Alaska DFG salmon estimates posted in late January and reports will start again in May as the season winds up. With the economy sputtering their are lots of great deals being offered by many lodges and guide services. A great place to check out a number of lodges is the San Mateo or Sacramento International Sportsman shows this January. We still have a couple of prime weeks available at our vacation property and our Alaska sponsors have lots of room.

August 3rd
A few pictures from our 2008 family Alaska trip. Pictured top left in background, that's me  getting dragged down river by a sockeye while my  brother Pete heads back up after releasing a fish at Jim's Landing on the upper Kenai. In front, from left to right, 15 year old Jake Aughney, 13 year old Cody Kenney, fellow UACG member Katie Gooding 17, and 13 year old Tyler Aughney are all smiles after putting limits on the bank in just a couple of hours time. Some would think that with four teenagers we would be handicapped. We weren't and "the kids" out-fished most anglers around them every day.

Jake Aughney (right) shows off the days catch of sockeyes at Jim's. One of just several similar days we enjoyed the past two weeks.

 

My 13 year old son, Tyler (lower left) shows why our decoy spreads should include some fish and smiles. We will have to try the sockeye decoy at our Richmond Club blind this season. This is at the mouth of a small stream on the lower Kenai where widgeon and mallards out number anglers and a place we like to keep quite.

2008 Kenai Area Preview
Looking ahead to the 2008 fishing season it appears we will  see another good run of sockeyes on the Kenai and Kasilof rivers. The AK Fish and Game predicts that over 3.1 million sockeyes will return to the Kenai river in  and over 1.3 million to the Kasilof in 2008.

2007 late run King counts on the Kenai came it right at the 20 year average while king counts were up on the Kasilof.

The silver runs came in late and were spotty on the Kenai river but were very productive on the Anchor and Ninilchik rivers in 2007.

The rainbow action was exceptional with some of our guests reporting 100 plus fish days fly fishing on the Kenai. The late September Anchor river steelie counts have been above the past few seasons with individuals reporting as many as 15 fish hooked per day on the Anchor river. 

We are looking ahead to another fun packed summer so come on up and join in on the action. If you have any questions regarding our USAFishing's Kenai Peninsula CABIN or the fishing or area in general please give us a call at 707 762-9776. We will be more than happy to assist you.
