There are some big reds in the river this year and it reminded me of the 90s with how big some of them were. I also caught a small sculpin, which my buddy, then some other guy close started laughing when I was holding the hook with it stuck on it saying, GET THE NET!!!! LOL! A couple on the day of fishing before making our way back to the big city, I landed a couple that were 9 to 10 pounds and they were a blast to land in some fast water. Fishing just before we left, I also hooked a nice sized king that I saw the head come out first, then saw the nice chrome coloring with blue and purple hues in the sunlight. That thing I would say at least 25 pounds from how chunky it was and it made short work on snapping my leader, which I was glad because we are not even supposed to be doing catch and release with them in the Kenai river.

Just got back from a week on the Kenai. Started off with 17 lb leader-then 20-25 then 30. We had fly line snap, two 8wt rods. Straightened out snap swivels. Straight barrel swivels were ok if big enough. Fish were HUGE and powerful.

Ugly stick 10wt is a good one but heavy. Any 10wt rod would do it, 10wt is over kill but it’s good for bringing the fish in fast!
