Half Day Kasilof Steelhead Fishing

Kenai Peninsula Steelhead Fishing is primarily a fall pursuit and takes place on the southern Kenai Peninsula rivers: The Anchor, Deep Creek, Ninilchik and the Upper Kasilof. These fall runs begin in late August and early September and typically peak in the middle of October. These trips are strictly walk and wade excursions and require a certain degree of hiking ability and wading mobility. Chest waders are a must. None of these rivers receive huge returns of steelhead, so success is hit-and-miss and largely dependent on favorable weather conditions and run timing, as well as persistence. Both conventional tackle and fly-fishing work well.
