At 3 or 4 a.m., it's still vaguely gray. The sun isn't quite ready to start the day. The fog, hovering over the water and in patches here and there along the bank, chills the air. And the fish, they're there too. Under the surface, in pockets beneath the current, they've been resting through the night "It's seems they're just there, waiting for me," said Gary Sinnhuber. Waiting and ready. Ready for a fight. That's why the early morning casts can be the hottest, he said. It's speculation perhaps. But, after 15 years fishing the waters of the lower Kenai Peninsula, he would know. As owner and lead guide for Homer-based Silverfin Guide Service, Sinnhuber passes his tricks and tips to visitors and locals. Throughout the past six years, Sinnhuber said, his service has appealed to novices as well as avid anglers. For some, walk-in fishing from the water's edge is more appealing than a day drifting down the river.... --- ## Home URL: https://silverfinguides.com/ # River Fishing Alaska's Lower Kenai Peninsula River Fishing on the lower Kenai Peninsula, and Homer Alaska Anchor River, Ninilchik River, Kasilof River, Deep Creek.

I moved to Alaska in 2004 and have been fishing for salmon ever since. I met Gary (the previous owner/operator) in 2005, and started working full time for him in 2007 to 2010 and part time in the years after. Fishing has always been my passion, and I have been constantly studying the salmon species. I read any book on the subject I can get my hands on and later on, when I worked construction, I would fish before work and after, and through the weekends. I take my three sons to the river all the time. Gary and I have been long time friends, and are great fishing buddys, we always let the other one know where the fish are. Last year Gary turned to me and asked if I wanted to buy his business - Yes! Its been my dream to do this for years, I am so excited to take this road. #### Adventure ## Ready for Adventure?

These streams provide good fishing throughout the summer and fall with runs of King, Silver and Pink Salmon, Dolly Varden Trout, and Steelhead. These rivers are narrow at only about 15-25 yards at their widest point, which makes them easy to fish from their riverbanks. All rivers are crossed by the Sterling Highway road system. The Anchor River, Deep Creek and Ninilchik River share the honor for the oldest and most traditional King Salmon fishery on the Kenai Peninsula. One of the best places to fish in Homer is the Nick Dudiak Fishing Lagoon (Homer Spit Lagoon), thanks mainly to the efforts of the Alaska Dept. of Fish and Game. This lagoon on the Homer Spit has been stocked with King and Silver Salmon, which return from the ocean every year.... --- ## Gallery URL: https://silverfinguides.com/gallery/ # Gallery --- ## Recommendations URL: https://silverfinguides.com/recommendations/ # Other Recommendations ## Links For recommendations on halibut/salmon charters in salt water try: • Daniel’s Personalized Guide Service • Driftwood Charters • Good Time Charters • Inlet Charters • Ninilchik Charters • Reel Fun Charters For a beautiful place to stay in Homer, try: • Alaska Adventure Cabins • Alaskan Suites of Homer • Aloha B&B • Halcyon Heights B&B/Inn • Highliner House • Homer Inn & Spa • Maria’s Majestic View B&B • Ocean House Inn • Twin Creeks Trailhead Lodge & Retreat • Waterman Creek Guest House For a beautiful place to stay in Ninilchik try: • Meander In #### Adventure ## Ready for Adventure?

You may think, "Why do I need a guide to take me to the Homer Spit Lagoon, or to the area rivers? I should be able to catch fish on my own." That may be true, but it might take quite a while to figure out how to do it. First, you need to know the Alaska sport fishing regulations and how to identify various species of salmon or trout. Next, you need the right equipment for the fishing situation, and the correct lure, fly or quality bait to maximize your catch. You need to know where you can fish legally and where the hot spots are. You’ll have to make the right presentation of your lure or bait to the fish, and finally, know how to successfully set the hook, fight and land that fish. You could save a lot of time, headaches and disappointment by allowing Silverfin Guide Service to teach you how to fish successfully in this area. Then you can go at it on your own. #### Adventure ## Ready for Adventure?... ---
