AWESOME EXPERIENCE
Half Day Trip – Walk and Wade on June 26, 20262 adults

Here’s a polished version that keeps your enthusiasm while making it more concise and professional: My wife and I went on our first-ever fly fishing trip, and it was an incredible experience! Dan was an excellent instructor—patient, knowledgeable, and great at teaching beginners. The fish weren’t biting much that day, but everyone still managed to catch one, which made the experience even more rewarding. The wildlife was just as memorable. We saw a mother moose with two calves, a porcupine, a mother duck with five ducklings, and two bald eagles. The reindeer sausage for lunch was a pleasant surprise and absolutely delicious. Adam, the owner, was outstanding. He answered every question we had and went above and beyond to accommodate my disabilities, ensuring I could fully enjoy the trip. His kindness and commitment to providing a great experience did not go unnoticed. This was an unforgettable adventure, and I highly recommend it to anyone—whether you’re an experienced angler or trying fly fishing for the very first time!

A great time!
Half Day Trip- Float on July 11, 20263 adults

We had a few good catches and also caught a nice sized leapard rainbow trout with our guide sully! This was our first time trying fly fishing and he gave us some good pointers and direction. The scenery was amazing as well!

Response from Captain

Hi Shane, happy to hear you got into some leopard bows and had a good time with Sully! He enjoyed his time on the water with you and your family, enjoy the rest of your trip here!

Wonderful half day on the water with Ryan!
Half Day Trip – Walk and Wade on May 11, 20261 adult

Booked a half day wade trip in early/mid May. I knew it was a bit early and didnt end up catching any fish. Didn’t matter. Ryan, my guide, was great and gave me a few casting tips I can take back with me. He knew what he was doing but the water was just a bit too cold. Would book again!

Adam Cuthriell
Response from Captain

Hi Dan, thank you for fishing with us and Ryan! Yes, this has been the coldest spring we've seen in 15 years of guiding and fishing here. Happy to hear you learned some new techniques and tips and enjoyed your time waving sticks at fish and we hope to fish with you in the future!

Fishing slow but great trip
Full Day Trip – Float on June 29, 20262 adults

All was good. Equipment, guide, beautiful river, but catching was slow. Can’t blame anyone except Mother Nature. Chris was superb at handling the raft and very attentive to our needs.

Grayling

Captain Adam has been fly fishing since he was 14 and his dream since that day was to be a guide in Alaska. He's been a guide since he was 19 and now is 41. At 30, the captain fulfilled his dream to guide in Alaska. After guiding for other companies and seeing how things could be improved and my wife's encouragement, Captain Adam started his own outfit. It started with him and a boat and has now grown to 10 guides and 4 different locations across Alaska.
