Fishing Intelligence

Kachemak State Park Fishing

Bear Cove sits within Kachemak Bay State Park, a road-less wilderness. Tides determine kayak beach landing windows and fish movement through the inner bay coves.

Remote Halibut

The deep water halibut grounds near Bear Cove produce excellent fishing. Slack water periods around high tide are prime time for jigging halibut off the park's underwater ledges.

Dolly Varden & Trout

The creeks and estuaries within Kachemak State Park near Bear Cove hold populations of Dolly Varden and Rainbow Trout. High tides push fish up into the creek mouths.
