- Fly Fishing the FAMOUS RUSSIAN RIVER near Anchorage, Alaska for Sockeye Salmon ("Reds") should be on every angler's short list of dream fishing experiences! In this video, my wife and I hit up the Russian River and caught 7 sockeye salmon to take home and eat. They are awesome and powerful fish, and well worth the efforts to get to them! Thank you for watching... please consider liking the video and subscribing to the channel!

World famous Russian River reds! Nice work bagging the best fish ever.
Thanks, Dawn!! Beautiful River, awesome fish, definitely a great time!! 🙂✌️👇
Awesome video. Alaska is a place I would love to visit someday.
You would love it, brother! Has pretty much every kind of fishing you could hope for! 🙂✌️🎣
Been waiting for this one! This is a dream of mine 😢
Yo brother!! Definitely an epic fishing experience!! 🙂✌️🎣
Boa noite parabéns, show de vídeo forte abraço Deus abençoe sempre sucesso
Thank you for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it!! 🙂✌️🎣
Beautiful salmon haul Kev! Great video of you and your wife fishing that looks like real fun wading the water. Dinner will be delicious! 👊🎣🔥
Yo Kev! It was a ton of fun, and we went right home and cooked up some of the fillets... They were delicious!! 🙂✌️🎣
Awesome video buddy, travel safe and happy fishing
Hey Will, thank you my friend! 🙂✌️🎣
I went to Alaska this past June and couldn't get near the Russian River. That River is so beautiful ❤ sure wish I could have went fishing there.
It is an amazing river! Hope you get there someday!! 🙂✌️🎣
Awesome video Kev! just got caught up. Its sweet to see you fishing all over the USA - I bet those guys tasted good
Side note - I also beat the crap out of my Reddington rod and seriously cannot believe how well its taken some rough days of bushwhacking and fishing. Really impressed with their brand gotta say, but was thinking about maybe checking out a Winston for my next rod
Hey brother! Hope you are doing well; yeah, I may upgrade rods at some point, but the Redington is serving me very well so far. I can't wait to test it out on some giant suckers and carp in the Salt River! Good to hear from you, brother! 🙂✌️🎣
Great fishing on the rushin' Russian! Nice netting, Nancy! ❤❤❤
Nancy was awesome on the net, and awesome catching her share of fish.... I wasn't so awesome on the net though!! I lost three of her fish! 😭😭😭😭
Where are you on the river ? We fished up at the end of the falls where the marker is, but the numbers are starting to fall.
Hey Madison, we just parked at the campgrounds and hiked the river til we found fish stacked up! 🙂✌️🎣
That was awesome! Super nice size fish out there!
Definitely brother! Big Salmon and Big Filets!! 🙂✌️🎣
Nice work looks like a great day on the river!
Hey brother!! Thanks, it was definitely a blast out there! 🙂✌️🎣
Another sick location. Amazing salmon, Kevin! If you had lost your wife's fish 4 times in a row that would have been a long walk back to AZ.
Yo Dug!!! Ain't that the truth!! I didn't show the footage of me missing the net on the first 3 fish cuz I dropped some foul language during the incidents! 😂😂😂😂✌️🎣
@@KevinRapkochFishing in NJ they will confiscate your fishing license if you don’t meet the quota of four letter words per outing.
@@DpuckFishingandOutdoors 😂😂😂😂
Good looking fish
Thank you, brother! Salmon fishing is a blast!! 🙂✌️🎣
You two are the best❤
Haha, thanks Susan 🙂✌️🎣
So awesome!!
Yo D! Thank you, my brother! 🙂✌️🎣
“Ooohhh that’s a lot of meat!” 😂🎣
😂😂😂😂 haha, it was a heavy stringer, for sure!!
Great!
Oh Great...!!!!! 🙂✌️🎣
Kevin, I’ve been there before. The red salmon fishing is awesome, just beware of the bears….. bad area when they are on the river.. Take care..
Hey Rick! Thanks for watching and commenting; I'll beware of the bears!! 🙂✌️🎣
@@KevinRapkochFishing
Kevin since you are down there head to anchor river at anchor point, then go on over to homer just down the road…
@@rickbrown7067 we were just at those spots 🙂🙂 the anchor is currently closed to fishing due to not hitting King escapement numbers this year...
❤❤
Thanks, Jaime 🙂✌️🎣
The Russian River is clear. Not this color
This video was filmed at the Russian River 🙂✌️🎣
