Mya Williams5.0VerifiedNewamazing first time fishing
5 Hour Trip – Sturgeon Shared on November 7, 2026 • 2 adultscaptain ken was perfect! he was super helpful especially with us being first time anglers. he was informative and lets you enjoy your experience. we were given many opportunities to hook our own bait, reel, and be very hands on with the fish. we caught a 4.5 foot and a 6 footer sturgeon which was the highlight of the moment. cruising with the captain taught us patience and how to be present in the moment during the art of fishing. Captain Ken was very social, kind, and welcoming. Will book in the future if in the PNW area again.
Heather Gaona5.0VerifiedGreat Experience!
6 Hour Trip – Salmon Shared on September 12, 2026 • 3 adultsFour of us went on the trip: 2 adults, 1 teen, and a 9 year old. We've never specifically went salmon fishing (but fished before) so new to us all. Captain Ken was engaging, informative, and patient with us all with our missteps. He explained what the plan was, how the day would look, and made sure we had practice. When they weren't biting, he wasn't afraid to change it up and try something new. We lucked out an caught our limit, but even if we hadn’t, we would've found the trip worth it!! It just so happens we were able to bring loads of salmon home, too. If you want to go a charter where they actually care about fishing and enjoy what they do, I absolutely recommend Ken and 2Net
Katelin Zion5.0VerifiedGreat time!
6 Hour Trip - Salmon Private on August 21, 2026 • 3 adultsI went with brother and stepdad to celebrate his 80th bday. We had a great time and had so many opportunities to get fish in the boat. I also caught my first chinook! Ken has helpful equipment for finding fish and used every tool at his disposal, including communicating with other fisherman. We ended up with two of our allowed 3 fish at the end of the day and great memories! I recommend Ken and would go fishing with him again!
Jean Tom5.0VerifiedEnjoyed Sturgeon Fishing with Ken!
5 Hour Trip – Sturgeon Shared on June 26, 2026 • 6 adultsWe had a great time with Ken in Fishing for Sturgeon (Catch and Release). Ken was really knowledgeable. We caught 3 fishes (42", 38" and 52") and had another 5 nibbles on the lines. We fished in a couple of spots based on the Fishfinder monitor Ken had. In the last hour, Ken gave us a boat tour of Portland and the shipyard. Ken was highly flexible and had all the gear we needed for the weather (rain pants, jackets). We really enjoyed talking with Ken!
Michael Partridge5.0VerifiedIf you don’t want to get burned, fish with Ken Burns 🔥 he’ll ignite the angler in all of us!
5 Hour Trip - Sturgeon Private trip on June 22, 2026 • 2 adultsMy teenage daughter and I went hoping to catch Sturgeon…. Once we found the honey hole everything we were hoping for came to life. Ken is extremely knowledgeable and equally willing to share the ins and outs without making you feel overwhelmed. We caught four that I remember and lost a half dozen more while refining our technique. they were all sizes. From arm length to 4+ feet. I guarantee you’ll leave with a smile
Taylor Merklein5.0VerifiedFamily Fun!!
6 Hour Trip – Salmon Shared on July 1, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 childrenKen made this trip special from start to finish! We took a private tour with kids and grandparents and had an amazing time! Our 9y/o son has never been on a fishing charter, and by the end of the trip, he was running multiple lines! At the end, Ken even gave us a boat tour of downtown Portland! Highly Recommend Captain Ken!
Nadene Stein5.0VerifiedFun Family Fishing Trip!
4 Hour Trip – Lake Fishing 6 Angler on June 23, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childCaptain Ken did a great job of bringing us right to where the sturgeon were! He quickly and patiently taught us what we needed to know and, as a result, we were very successful! It was a beautiful day to be on the river. We were able to communicate with Captain Ken ahead of time and brought layers to wear as well as water and snacks.
Jenny Ko5.0VerifiedAmazing and knowledgeable
