Kasilof River fishing is an experience unmatched by other areas of Alaska. The Kasilof River is where the Sockeyes run free!

On our Kasilof river fishing adventures, our experienced guides will take you on the fishing trip of a lifetime. Kasilof River fishing is a peaceful experience using “non-motorized” boats to fish for salmon, which are notorious for putting up quite the fight. Our fishing guides are skilled at delivering right into the heart of the action.

For this guided Kasilof River salmon fishing trip, you will travel with your guide down this 4.5 mile journey on a 5 passenger drift boat. The trip begins at the Sterling Highway Bridge, winding downriver towards the mouth of the Kasilof River and finally concluding at the “Old Kasilof Landing”. You’ll have the luxury of enjoying gorgeous scenery, watching wildlife in its natural habitat, and cruising the river in peace and quiet except for the anticipated almighty yell of “FISH ON!!!”.

On every adventure, we fish for silver and sockeye salmon. Even if you’re a beginner, these charter fishing trips are the best in Alaska! Our Kasilof River fishing adventures are an ideal outing for everyone inclusing photographers and nature buffs. Our highly experienced Kasilof River fishing guides will help you every step of the way.

Kasilof River Salmon | Fun Facts

Fun Fact #1

The name Kasilof is from a Russian surname. The Kasilof River is host to multiple species of fish including Silver Salmon (Coho’s), Sockeye Salmon (Red Salmon), Pink Salmon, Dolly Varden, Rainbow Trout, and Steelhead Trout. Although there are many different species of fish in this river, the silvers and sockeyes are the most popular targets. This is due to the catch and release regulations of the trout in the river system year round.

Fun Fact #2

The Kasilof River begins its 12.5 mile journey from the headwaters of Tustumena Lake flowing in the northwesterly direction towards Cook Inlet. If you have never set eyes on a glacial fed river, you are in for a real treat. The color of the river is a brilliant teal color that stays a cool 55 degrees in mid-Summer.
