Kenai Drift Anglers

Kenai Drift Anglers is a day trip guide service based in Soldotna, Alaska, the town at the center of the peninsula’s summer fishery, and it does not run lodging of its own. The owner is Scotty Daletas, a year round Alaskan resident who guides the boats himself alongside a small staff. The operation describes the Kasilof as a true wilderness setting because motors are kept off it, and it markets the Kenai as the better known of the two. Beyond the two rivers, the business books fly out trips to remote water, priced by destination rather than at the standard per person day rate. Bookings are handled directly, and the outfit publishes a month by month breakdown of which runs are in the rivers so anglers can match a trip to what they want to catch.
