Klamath River - Keno

6 ½ miles of exhilarating whitewater with fast pockets and smooth pools, holding numerous 17-19 inch rainbows with fish up to 24 inches. Fish from comfortable flyfishing rafts outfitted with leaning posts and solid fishing platforms. The river here cuts through a deep canyon. Except for the occasional sturdy walk-in bank angler, we are the only ones boating and fishing this section. Open October 1^st through June 15^th. The Keno stretch is closed in the heat of summer from June 16^th to September 30^th to protect the fish. Typically you will find us on the keno stretch from May 1^st to June 15^th and October and November. Fishing this stretch requires waders. Not for wading, we fish almost exclusively from the rafts with fishing frames, but because the rapids splash will find you no matter what.

The Klamath River begins in Klamath County Oregon flowing from Lake Ewauna which is connected to Klamath Lake via the Link River.  Many have heard of Klamath Lake with its big native redband rainbows and of Klamath River once it has found its way into California as host to steelhead fishing but in between is a river lost in some respects.  Lost off of many people radar as a place to fish and raft. but here's the deal. Its not not just a place to fish.  It is a place to breath again.
