What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Kenai, Alaska for the first time?

I would recommend fishing the Kenai if you love fishing, not if you are trying for the first time. The demand for boats and guides and the fame of the Kenai command high prices. While the chance of walking away with a prize fish are there, if it isn't already a passion it can also just turn into an expensive boat ride.

If you really want to catch fish. You need at least a few days. with 1 day ,do not complain about no fish result (target is King salmon.)
