* Just a reminder to all our anglers, please do your part to help slow the spread of Covid-19 by practicing social distancing while sport and personal use fishing, and wearing a face-covering when social distancing is not possible, and if you are needing fishing supplies from your local store. Freshwater Fishing

No more than two salmon, 16 inches or longer, per day and in possession may be coho salmon. Refer to pages 55 and 56 of the 2021 Southcentral Alaska Sport Fishing Regulations Summary for maps denoting riverbank closures on the lower Kenai River. See the emergency order below for more information. The mainstem Upper Kenai River is fishing well. From Skilak Lake upstream to a marker located approximately 300 yards upstream of Sportsman’s Landing bag and possession limits will increase to six per day and twelve in possession beginning at 12:01 a.m., Wednesday, August 11. Anglers are reminded that only one per day and one in possession may be coho salmon. See the emergency order below for more information. The use of bait is prohibited until 11:59 p.m., August 15. Sportfishing gear is limited to one unbaited, single-hook, artificial lure while sport fishing in the Kenai River from its mouth upstream to the outlet of Skilak.

Local Lakes
There are plenty of other fishing opportunities in Southcentral Alaska. This is the perfect time to visit locally stocked lakes as the William Jack Hernandez Sport Fish Hatchery is busy stocking fish. Lake fishing for rainbow trout, Arctic char, Arctic grayling, and land-locked salmon is good. Try fishing with dry or wet flies such as an egg-sucking leech, bead head nymph, or mosquito pattern; small spoons and spinners size #0 or #2; or small bait under a bobber. Not familiar with all the stocked lakes in the area? Check out the ADF&G brochure with locations, access, and other valuable information on Kenai Peninsula area lakes. More lake information can be found on the ADF&G Alaska Lakes Database. Interested in recent stocking activities at lakes? Check out the ADF&G stocking database online.
