This year I have the pleasure to host/guide 5 guys from all over the U.S. We leave either Denver, Colorado Springs, and New York on the 22nd of July and all converge in Anchorage. From there we are renting a truck from ABC rental and heading to down to my buddy Kevin's tower cabin. We call it the tower because he built it to model a fire lookout tower. It's amazing. On day one, we will discover what the salmon are doing in the upper river, head down to the confluence of the Russian and Kenai rivers, or maybe head to the lower river. New this year is another addition to our fleet of boats. Now I have the choice between a willie 17', Willie 20', or the jet boat.
After we get our fish boxes filled with salmon, we will hunt down some big rainbows. Fires have closed a section of River that have some truly enormous fish known as the dunes and rainbow alley. With the fire almost 100% contained, I am hoping they reopen this section and get the guys on some huge Bows.
To wrap up our 8 day adventure, I have contacted good friend Capt. Ron for 2 days of halibut fishing down in Anchor point, AK. If the seas are under 4 footers, we'll be out for easy "butt" limits on the 27th and 28th.
This is an adventure of a lifetime for most of these guys. I can't wait to see their faces as they tie into a different class of fish in Alaska. Ones that will hopefully make lots of memories, fish tales, and happy fisherman.
