Kenai River Opener: June 11^th – 13^th

As we have for the last few years; Lance, Dennis, & I took three days at the beginning of the season opener to float fish the Kenai River. The campground is in Cooper Landing, right on the river. Actually, it’s our campsites that are right next to the river, giving us the prime location for launching our pontoon boats.

Speaking of boats… I have a new one! It’s the 9’ Sportsman Warehouse special from Outcast.
