The Best Seasons for Kenai River Fly Fishing
The Kenai River offers year-round fishing opportunities, but the best times vary depending on the species you want to target:
🕰️ May – June: King Salmon and early-season Rainbow Trout fishing is excellent.
🔥 July – August: This is prime time for Sockeye Salmon, and the trout fishing is unbeatable as Rainbows and Dollies feast on salmon eggs.
🍂 September – October: The Silver Salmon arrive, providing some of the most exciting fly fishing of the year. Trout fishing is at its absolute peak as they fatten up before winter.
