Seward, Alaska is on the famous Kenai Peninsula, a destination for all sorts of outdoor activities like salt water fishing for halibut, river fishing for different types of salmon, sea kayaking, and rafting.

Based near Soldotna, our host for the day was Chugach Backcountry Fishing, owned by Cory Hetrick.
