What are the Alaskan Fishing Regualtions?

you wish to fish in. Please consult the regulations provided by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game
for further information. We fish on the Kenai Peninsula.

What should I wear? What should I bring?
|
Due to unpredictable Alaskan weather, we advise dressing in layers, which will allow you
to stay warm and dry as the outdoor environment changes.
You'll also need to bring rain gear, a warm jacket,
sweater, hat, gloves, an Alaskan fishing license, lunch and drinks.
The local staff can assist in ordering lunches in advance so they are fresh the morning you depart on your trip.

Is my Guide Certified to be on the Kenai River?
|
Yes! The Kenai River Guide Academy — taught at Kenai Peninsula College along the
banks of the Kenai River — is a 5-day course that is required for all fishing guides that plan to guide
clients.
Beginning in 2007, guides must pass the course in order to receive an Alaska Department of Parks
and Outdoor Recreation commercial operator permit to guide on the Kenai River.
