It was great to find this video. Our cabin was on the lake, off of Snug Harbor road, and I spent my childhood fishing the lake and surrounding waters. We would boat across to the mouth of Quartz creek and fish for hours. At one time I was hearing stories that the lake was commercially fished for salmon, but they would get 40-50 lbs lake trout. We never caught anything that large, however one of our trips to the mouth of Quartz we hooked into what was probably in the 18 lbs range, but lost it just a few feet from the boat,. So they are in there. On Summer evenings late, you could throw a spinner and catch them cast after cast. I have always been surprised that no one deep fishes to find really big ones and wondering if anyone ever will.
First video I ever seen trout fishing in Kenai lake. I always wondered if There was fish in that lake. Been coming to Alaska for 30 years and never seen anyone fish Kenai lake. Good to know
Simply beautiful!

I didn’t know you could run a motor bigger than a 50 hp on the lake..that’s cool.
Are there a lot of trout in that lake?
Trout looked good on the grill.
