I booked a charter with Salmon Slayer based on the excellent reviews I had read beforehand—and I can confidently say they were entirely accurate. Our group not only caught the fish we were hoping for, but we also had an exceptional day on the water thanks to the expertise and hospitality of Captain Dave and First Mate Carl. Both Dave and Carl generously shared their knowledge and answered all our questions, creating an engaging, educational, and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the trip. Their professionalism and friendliness helped forge a memorable experience—and even a lasting connection with each of them. We are already looking forward to booking future trips with Salmon Slayer and will be sure to follow the crew on TikTok and other social media platforms as they become available. Thank you again for an unforgettable day on the water! FISH ON!
Captain Dave and First Mate Carl worked hard to get us on the fish. Lots of friendly banter kept the trip fun even when the fish were not biting. My brother, newphew and I ended up landing 2 Steelhead, 2 Coho, and 6 Kings. We definitely want to go out with them again.
Thank you so much for joining us on the charter. i am glad you had a great time and look forward to seeing you all again.
This was our second trip with Dave and we highly recommend him. With his amount of experience on the lake, he knows the right places to hit to get on the fish. We had a really great time and caught 11 today, making for a nice supply of wild salmon to bring home. Book with Salmon Slayer and you will be glad you did.
Thank you John, glad you all had a great time.
Thank you so much, was a great trip.
