Alaska Steelhead Co.

FreshwaterKenai Peninsula — Clam Gulch, the Kasilof and other Cook Inlet rivers

Since 2013 Alaska Steelhead Co. has guided fall steelhead trips out of Clam Gulch on the Kenai Peninsula, and in 2026 it moved into new lodge buildings. Guides work three rivers that drain into Cook Inlet, the glacial Kasilof among them, by drift boat, inflatable kayak and on foot, and helicopter days can be added. All steelhead, Dolly Varden and rainbows go back, while any silver salmon you keep can be shipped home.
