Kenai Peninsula fishing for Halibut and Salmon in Alaska.
Kenai Peninsula Fishing
Every spring, Alaska's Cook Inlet begins to fill with fish. This is when the mighty King Salmon begin their first run of the season. The waters off Deep Creek and Ninilchik River, two streams that drain into Cook Inlet, are where the Salmon gather before making their final runs into the streams of the Kenai Peninsula.
The Kings are not alone; schools of Halibut move into the shallow waters to follow the Salmon and bait fish along the sea bottom. Later in the year, the feisty Silver Salmon will begin to arrive.
Trout and Steelhead also thrive in the streams and the beaches are full of Clams.
Here you will find Heavenly Sights, providing the best fishing charters available on the Kenai Peninsula. A Heavenly Sights fishing charter provides you with the opportunity to get the really big ones.
Our clean, ocean going vessels range in size from 24 - 28 feet, and feature enclosed cabins. Our river boats will give you easy access to Salmon, Trout, and Dolly Varden.
Knowledgeable guides know where the fish are, and all are USCG licensed and CPR and First Aid certified. We provide all the tackle and bait you will need. All you need to bring is rain gear, lunch, a fishing license, and a desire to catch fish. (You may also want to bring a camera or camcorder.) When you return to shore, your catch will be cleaned while you wait. In addition, we can arrange to vacuum pack, freeze, and ship it any where in the U.S. or Canada at bulk rates.
Halibut- The largest game fish in the North Pacific. The average catch is 40 pounds, while 100 pounders are common. In 1987 a huge Halibut weighing 460 pounds was taken in these waters. Halibut can be caught year-round.
King Salmon- In May the mighty King Salmon begins to run in the waters of Cook Inlet. The average King taken weighs 45 pounds, and each season 90 pound fish are caught. the Kings have two runs and the season lasts until the end of July.
Silver Salmon- The Silver Salmon arrives in Cook Inlet during the early part of August and are abundant through October. They are ferocious fighters and provide some of the most exciting sport fishing experiences. Silvers average 10-12 pounds, with trophy fish running up to 20 pounds.
