Outdoor Recreation in Alaska

 
Alaska fishing

one reason the state calls itself the Last Frontier. Close your eyes, indulge for a moment in the vacation of your dreams…

It's late evening now, but the light remains steadfast. The shapes moving beneath the shimmering water can just be made out. You stand in a quiet stream and the loudest sound is the piercing whir of your line as you cast. It is quiet, and one question pursues your thoughts: What lies beneath the water?

Such is the mystery of Alaska fishing.

Before you get in the boat, your guide tells you that you've made the right decision. There are doubts, since the rain is coming down diagonally. But still, he says Alaska King Salmon fishing is the best: Nowhere on earth can you even hope to find such massive Chinooks. You get excited and boast about the 30 pound salmon you caught in California last summer. Your guide chuckles humbly and says "the world record king salmon* was caught right over there," as he points his finger across the Kenai River.

Like he said, you've made the right choice.

Welcome to the premier website for the Alaska outdoors enthusiast. Vacations in Alaska are resonant experiences, times that you will revisit in your memory. You will always remember the fight with the King Salmon on the Kenai River; you will definitely forget the 30 pounder you caught last summer.

*The World Record King Salmon was caught on May 17, 1985 by Les Anderson. The mighty Chinook weighed in at a whopping 97lbs 4oz!
