Top Advice For Your Guided Fishing Kenai River Trip

By Shirley Fox


Fishing can be a fun experience. This is whether you are new at this or whether you have been doing this for a while. You can opt to have a guided fishing Kenai River experience. Even though your first trip can be a bit intimidating, having the help of an experienced person can help you to make the most out of the trip. Here are some tips to keep in mind when going for such a trip.

It is best that you tell your guide the truth about what you can and you cannot do. Do not exaggerate your skills and give the wrong impression about your skill levels. If you are a newbie, just let the expert know that. This way, they can customize your trip in such a way that you can be able to fish based on how good you are. This ensures that both you and the expert have a good day.

Consider how much time you will take for the trip. You can make reservations for a few hours. You can also book the whole day. The recommended thing is for you to book the whole day, so that you can maximize the trip. Therefore, try and take a trip when you have time to spare, rather than trying to fit it in within a busy day. Taking a whole day trip will help you to look up multiple spots, which increases the chances of you catching more fish.

When you go for the trip, don't be too strict about what to do. Be willing to accept any corrections that your guide might give you. Also, you should be willing to try out new techniques on how to fish. You could end up learning some new things that you do not know. Have a positive attitude, so that everyone can be free and have fun around you.

Try and talk to the guide well head of time. This can be a few days ahead or even just before the trip starts. Let them know what your expectations for the day are. Inform them whether you just want to have fun or actually catch something.

You are likely to get hungry, so make arrangements about what you will eat. Some guides provide a package deal, where foods and snacks and beverages are part of the deal. Also, know where the toilets are or what you are to do when you want to relieve yourself.

If you would like to take your pet, you better ask the guide first. Some guides will allow it while others will not. Also, find out the maximum number of people you can bring. Since sitting space is limited, you will just be able to bring a few people, otherwise the boat can end up being overcrowded and you will not have a good experience.

You can bring some things to help your trip be more comfortable. This includes sunscreen and a hat. Wear comfortable clothes. Bring something to cover yourself, just in case it rains. Most boats have storage space, so they won't mind keeping your things for you.
