Here's a beautiful, bright hen King
Salmon wrestled out of the Gulkana River
by a very pleased client.

You think that it's easy to hold
one of these beasts up while
your buddy snaps pictures? Wait
till you try it. Another
Gulkana King destined for the
grill.

A great day to be after the
King!
She caught it all by her self,
but needed help holding it up!

Right at the mouth of the Copper and the
Gulkana, this client pulled out one Red
Salmon after another. Notice how the
head and back are turning emerald in
color (of the fish, not the client.)
There's nothing like catching Red Salmon
on a fly

Quite a burly KING!
At KingFishers Perch, You will
use some of the best equipment,
and top Quality Gear! It's a
good thing, because these big
boys fight HARD!"

Ken Hughes in the flesh,
this is our Senior
Guide, the one who
spawned them all! He is
holding up just another
good eating King pulled
out of the Gulkana River
in late June.

Getting to the river first makes
all the difference. This big
King Salmon took the lure on
Jayson's fourth cast. It's
always nice to be taking
pictures in that perfect morning
light, knowing that no matter
what else happens, you landed a
King today.

This is the wild Klutina
River. Great fishing and
an exciting raft trip to
boot. It takes some
serious planning to land
a King in the Klutina.
It makes for some of the
most exciting fishing
our area has to offer.

"It is so AWESOME to
catch King Salmon, that
once you have landed
your big one, sometimes
you just have to HUG
it. This Gulkana King
was hooked from the
boat, and Katie had the
time of her life pulling
it in"

Here's a mean looking buck.
Its a great day to be on the
Klutina!

When the Reds hit the Gulkana,
we catch one fish after another.
This little guy takes his first
Red.

His and hers King

Brook and Beck show off a

We pick up the occasional
Grayling on the Klutina when
they get ambitious and go after
a King rig.

Ken Hughes is our Senior Guide
(and grandpa to most of us) for
Kingfisher's Perch. Sockeye
Salmon tremble at the sound of
his name.

Jared
Orvis absolutely slayed
them on the Klutina
River during this trip.
He landed an average of
ten Kings per day for
four days, including
this beauty.

This
King was a superstar! If
there would have been a derby
that year this fish would have
been in the running for BIG
money.
