🍂 🐻 Bear safety tips for fall. 🐻 🍂

Fall is an important time to stay bear aware. As bears prepare for hibernation, they spend much of their time searching for food and may be active around rivers and trails.
If you’re spending time outdoors this fall, keep these reminders in mind:

👀 Stay alert and look for tracks, s**t and other signs of activity.
🗣️ Make some noise to make your presence known.
🌶️ Keep bear spray accessible and know how to use it before heading out.
🗑️ Properly store all fish, food and trash.
↔️ Give bears plenty of room.

A little preparation goes a long way when sharing the outdoors with Alaska’s wildlife. Learn more about bear safety before heading out: tinyurl.com/2xt6n65m

Make the most of your catch! There’s more to your salmon than just the fillets. Using different parts of the fish can help you get more from your harvest and waste less. Here are a few of our favorite ways to put them to use:

🐟 Heads: Use in soup or fish head adobo.
🐟 Bellies: Smoke or grill them.
🐟 Backbone: Make fish stock, or scrape off the remaining meat for salmon patties.
🐟 Collars: Perfect for grilling or broiling.
🐟 Roe: Cure it to make salmon caviar.

HAPPY NATIONAL SALMON DAY! 🐟 🍽️

Today we’re celebrating one of Alaska’s most important fish and a favorite on the dinner table.

For generations, salmon have provided food for Alaskans through subsistence, personal-use and recreational fisheries. Harvesting, preparing and sharing salmon continues to be an important part of life for families and communities across the state.
Whether it’s grilled, smoked, canned or prepared another way, today is a good day to enjoy your catch.

Fishing season may slow down, but KRSA’s work doesn’t.

Throughout the year, KRSA works to support healthy fisheries, protect fish habitat and advocate for responsible, science-based fisheries policy. That means staying engaged in decisions that affect the Kenai River and Alaska’s fisheries and making sure recreational and personal-use anglers have a voice at the table.

It was a busy summer on the Kenai, and one of our favorite highlights was the 2026 Jr. Classic!

While fishing is a big part of the Jr. Classic, so is education. Every year, young anglers get hands-on experience learning about salmon, river ecology, boating safety and responsible fishing.

We’re proud to continue making education a priority and giving the next generation opportunities to learn more about Alaska’s fisheries and the Kenai River. Learn more about KRSA's education efforts: krsa.com/programs/education/

Summer is over, but there’s still plenty of fishing to be done on the Kenai. 🍂

Fall brings rainbow trout and Dolly Varden, along with cooler mornings, changing leaves and fewer boats on the water.
