Alaska is the home of the largest king salmon that has been recorded to date. This particular king salmon weighed in at nearly one hundred pounds! The River of Kenai housed this monstrous king salmon! In addition to this record the River of Kenai has numerous other record breaking king salmon fish that various people have reeled in throughout the years. This is one of the many reasons that Alaska is so popular. When people choose to fish for salmon, most of the time they choose Alaska because of the fact that they can choose to fish for a wide variety of salmon, that range in size.
