Kenai River 2020

[Gary]

Our sons come up in mid-September every year for some rainbow and dollie fishing. Along with 2 guests, there were 5 of us fishing this year.

That’s a place I’ve always wanted to fish. Great photos.

Dollies are on the bucket list. Looks like some fantastic days on the water!

Most of the dollies we caught were starting to show spawning colors. A lot of the rainbows were very colorful too, maybe due to the low water we had this year. We also caught a couple of silvers and some reds (nasty spawned out and ready to die). There were many 40-50 fish days (for each of us). September in AK has to be experienced. We also saw 13 bears on this trip. We usually only see 2-3.

I think that the Kenai River might (on a GOOD day) be the only road accessible fishery in the country where, when you're playing a 20" trout and a companion asks if you want it netted and you reply, "No", because you just want to horse it in and catch a bigger fish.
