Types of Salmon Fishing

All salmon species have different and specific sport fishing regulations on different river systems and different sections of water which vary throughout the season, as well as day of the week.

• KING Salmon or Chinook Salmon make early and late runs into both the Kenai and Kasilof River systems. We fish for them from May 16 until July 31.

• SOCKEYE Salmon or Red Salmon are the most populous. They make an early season run in mid to late June in the Russian and Kasilof River's then a late run starting in Late July in the Kenai River. Available June - Aug

• SILVER Salmon or Coho Salmon run later in the season starting around early August and continuing into the Fall. With the peak run times being mid August through mid to late September.

• PINK Salmon or Humpy Salmon will only run every even year. These fish flood the system and can make for sore arms in a hurry!
