Where it started

Alaska Boat Rental & Fishing Academy began on the Kenai Peninsula renting boats and fishing gear to anglers who wanted to fish the Kenai on their own. Today it is the parent company of four Alaska businesses, and Alaska Boat Rental itself focuses on what visiting anglers ask us for most: fishing gear rentals.

We’ve retired our boat rentals. Our waders, boots, rods and reels are the same gear our guides use, and you pick them up in Soldotna, minutes from the river.
