Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Kenai River Guide Reccomendations

I went with the Drifters Lodge - https://www.drifterslodge.com/about-us/  for my dad's birthday. he turned 80 - something. didn't swing but fished out of a motorized drift boat with indicator and bead setups on Glooms NRX 10ft 7wts.  \He caught a massive rainbow, probably around 30 inches as that was our target fish. it was great fun, guide essentially shook off any fish under 26 inches and we caught a ton of rainbows over 20 as well as some massive char, too. but he grinded it out until we found the trophy rainbow as that is what we were paying him for. very good work ethic. 

i would recommend that over a sockeye trip. from talking to the guide he said the sockeye don't really eat and even when swinging flies they are practically just flossing them.  I am sure either would be fun though!

My fiance and I are headed to Alaska this summer and we're planning to do a full day guided trip for Sockeye on the Kenai or Russian Rivers. It will be her first time swinging a fly. Does anyone have any recommendations for outfitters or guides?

Thanks,
Ethan
