Silent Run, Kenai Fishing:
When asked the tough question of where a fly angler stands the best chance of hooking and landing the largest of river-born rainbows, the turquoise flows of Alaska’s mighty Kenai will always be among the first mentioned. The fact of the matter is that everything about this river, including the opportunity it presents serious fly anglers, is super-sized.
Silent Run, Kenai Guide Staff:
Master guide Mark Mahoric and his crew at Silent Run Guide Service are dedicated fly-fishing professionals who know this river like no others. Providing top-of-the-line gear from Sage, Ross, and Rio, oversized and heated drift boats, and hot shore lunches, they are giant hunters of the first rate, and they have a long list of discerning, repeat clients from all over the country. In addition to hunting big rainbows, Mark and his team also offer guide trips for king, sockeye, and silver salmon, as well as walk-and-wade trips on a number of smaller, seldom traveled rivers and streams in the region.
While a sought-after destination in its own right, the Kenai is a natural add-on to extended travels in Alaska and Russia. Anglers stay at the Hutch Bed & Breakfast in nearby Cooper Landing (price not included) and are picked up each day for a full day of fishing. If you have yet to break the magic 30-inch mark, you might consider making this your next stop!
