If the thought of hooking into a monster King Salmon or early fall chrome Steelhead gets your blood pumping than this is the trip for you! The Ninilchik River is one of the crown jewel streams of the lower Kenai Peninsula and home to King, Silver, and Pink Salmon, as well as Dolly Varden and Steelhead. The tea colored streams & rivers carve through steep bluffs and low-lying forested areas.

The Ninilchik River Fishing Trip is a “Hike-In” trip. We will be hiking up and down the river along the bank and trails site fishing. There are some excellent fishing areas on the Ninilchik River if you know where to go and how to fish them. This is where our Professional Guide Service really shines.

Don’t worry if you’ve never fished before, we’ll teach you how and show you the ropes. We guide for complete beginners to seasoned pros, and we’ll provide as much help and instruction as you like.

The Ninilchik River supports runs of King, Silver, and Pink salmon, as well as Dolly Varden and Steelhead.
