Your Fishing Adventure Options:

  • Trout Fishing: Gear up for Rainbow Trout and Dolly Varden on the Kenai River, where we practice catch and release to preserve these species. Departing from Bings Landing, we offer 50 miles of pristine fishing waters. All necessary gear is provided, though you’re welcome to bring your own.
  • Salmon Fishing: Prepare for the thrill of King, Silver, and Red salmon fishing. As regulations frequently change, we’ll keep you updated on the latest guidelines to ensure a seamless experience. Your adventure will be tailored to the salmon run locations, with all fishing gear supplied.

Important Trip Information:

  • Arrival: Please arrive early at the designated boat ramp; look for Ian McDonald with the boat ready in the water.
  • Provisions: Don’t forget to pack lunch, snacks, and plenty of water. Upon request, we can prepare breakfast burritos and cold sandwiches.
  • Licensing: Ensure you have the appropriate fishing license for your group. Alaska residents under 18 and non-residents under 16 are exempt. Remember to fill out a Sport Fishing Harvest Record Card if required.

Journey from Anchorage to Soldotna:

The scenic route from Anchorage to Soldotna via Seward Highway South takes roughly 2.5 to 3 hours. Expect potential delays in summer. Along the way, enjoy stops like the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and the Girdwood aerial tram for awe-inspiring views. Upon arriving in Soldotna, you’ll find ample accommodations and dining options, plus essential boat launches for your Kenai River excursion. For alternative travel, consider flying directly into Soldotna, though car rental will be necessary for local mobility.
