Kasilof River Fishing Trips 

ABOUT YOUR TRIP
RiverRise Fishing Guides is a full-service, all-inclusive, fishing charter. We provide everything you need from the time we meet at the boat ramp until the time you leave. Meaning all rods, reels, tackle, and safety equipment, and if you want to keep fish, we will filet and bag them up for you! Make sure you bring a cooler!

All our trips take place in a 20' Willie Drift Boat outfitted with top-of-the-line equipment and gear to ensure a safe and comfortable day on the river! While fishing for King or Silver Salmon, most fishing will be done inside the boat, whereas when fishing for Sockeye Salmon, most of that fishing will be done from the bank.

WHEN TO GO
- May 16th - July 31st is when we will primarily target King Salmon. The early run starts showing up right around Mid May and will last until the end of June, about the time that the wild run (and bigger) Kings start showing up in the River.
- June 15th - August 10th, we will be targeting Sockeye (or Red Salmon) and the best times to fish for them is generally from the third week of June until the third week of July. We will still find fresh Sockeye all the way until the third week of August, but they become a bit harder to find later in the season.
- August 1st - September 15th is when we start really targeting Silver Salmon. They show up in good numbers around the second week of August and can really be caught all the way until the end of the year!
- August 1st - September 15th, this is great time to target those Trophy Rainbow Trout or Dolly's, so if you’re looking for a good chance at catching a good number, and good sized, Rainbow or Dolly Varden, this is when you will want to look at booking your trip.

WHAT TO BRING
Before coming aboard, it may be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, but we will check in with you before y
