Alaskan Widespread Fishing Adventures - Hike

Alaskan Widespread Fishing Adventures are a duo team, Mindy and Reubin, who fish on the Kenai Peninsula year-round. They operate several boats on the rivers and salt water and also offer an exciting hiking and wading adventure for those who want to try something unique and different.

If you are up to a challenge and have a special event in mind, look no further. Bring your whole family with you or head out with your friends, fishing buddies, or colleagues. Leaving from the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge in Soldotna, you will get off the beaten path and emerge in a more intimate experience to target Trout, Dolly Varden, Char, and Grayling.

You will be wading with fly rods, all the tackle, and shore lunch provided if necessary. You don’t have to be an experienced fisherman to be able to fully enjoy this adventure; just get ready for some pleasant and rewarding physical activity! For every two anglers in your group, you will have a guide who will be assisting you through the trip.

Mindy and Reubin feel truly blessed to be part of their client’s vacations, freshwater dreams, and experiences. They understand that people come to Alaska to catch fish and also have a great time doing it. Let them put their talent to work for you and help you create memories that will last a lifetime.

I began fishing at a very young age. I grew up on a lake near the Chattahoochee River in central GA. I spent all my free hours fishing! I don't know why I was so attracted to fishing, but from the first time I had a fishing rod in my hands, I was hooked! I hitch-hiked up the Alcan Highway to Alaska with some friends my junior year in college. I went home, graduated and went to a fishing show with a resume in my hand seeking a job in the fishing industry. I met a lodge owner that hired me as a "beach hand" for his upscale lodge on the Cook Inlet in South Central Alaska. We worked hard every morning and fished hard every afternoon. I guided for the lodge the following 9 years, then started my own guide business in 2001. I met Mindy on the Kasilof River in 2004 and we got married and joined our fishing companies in 2008. I feel incredibly blessed to be part of such an amazing fishery in such an amazing place.
