Caught em on a slow day!
Was a slow day but it was worth it on my birthday to celebrate turning 40 with my brother. Zach was great, he was communicative about what to do, kept talking with other guides by phone or passing boats asking after colors and would move us around first before others left the area when there was no bite. Caught one for me, my brother hooked and fought one but it broke off real close to the boat. We're already planning to go again in the fall with both our kids for a day. Highly recommend Zach, and his dog Rowdie was an awesome fishing companion, she got excited every time we touched a rod and was super happy when I landed mine.

Amazing
Zach was an amazing caption on our trip unfortunately we had to leave a little early due because my girlfriend wasn't feeling well and we where only out the for 2 hours but within those two hours we caught 4 giant king salmon and Zach was extremely nice about everything and showed us how to setup and catch these beautiful fish. I've been salmon fishing before and never had any luck and was sceptical on even booking but I had to get myself 1 king and when I saw the gear Zach was using i had confidence and sure enough we caught a lot I couldn't recommend this charter enough

Absolutely amazing trip
Location is breathtaking. Fish were biting like crazy. Captain and crew were awesome. They know the river and the fish. Even though some of us were hooking fish, they made sure to adjust the lures and bait so that all of us were getting bites. Would recommend this location and this Captain to any and all. Rowdy is the best deck hand ever!!! (Sorry John…)

Fishing with Zachary
Captain Zack proved himself to be a true professional. My 8-year-old son and I felt like real fishermen, even though it was our very first time. We had an amazing experience, caught plenty of fish and crabs. The service was outstanding! I highly recommend Captain Zack to anyone who wants to enjoy an unforgettable fishing trip.

I true Professional fishing man
Zach is a great guy with a life in which he is a professional guide…what I dream job. We meet him early and we had a great time, my family enjoyed the boat, his attention to trying to get a fish on one of our hooks. It was a slow day for fish but we brought back a nice Springer and lost one, oops. Anyways Highly recommend Zach, he works hard to get you on the fish!
