Steelhead season
Half Day walking and Wadeing (AM) on October 30, 20234 adults

A group of four of us booked with Captain Cliff for Salmon/Steelhead fishing and we would recommend his services to anyone! Cliff was very communicative leading up to the trip and gave us detail instructions. As soon as we met Cliff we knew we were in great hands. Cliff is experienced, knowledgeable, and extremely patient. Cliff made sure we all stayed safe and had a great day on the river. You can’t put a price on the amount of knowledge that Cliff has as a guide. We are all planning on booking another trip with Cliff as he’s been our most memorable guide to date. Can’t wait for more adventures with him!

1st Experience
Half Day walking and Wadeing (AM) on October 11, 20243 adults

Guide - Clifford did a great job. We planned a 1/2 trip. Clifford touched base prior to meeting up. His equipment worked very well for the type of fishing we were doing. He worked with each person as we fished. He changed things up at times to give us the best opportunity to land a fish. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Not my first Guide
Half Day walking and Wadeing (AM) on September 24, 20232 adults

After many years of different wilderness experiences both hunting and fishing with guides, I have to say that Cliff was by far the best! His professionalism, patience, caring and understanding made the trip relaxing and fun. He is well versed in the sport and was able to give us all of the knowledge we needed so that if we were to go again in the future we would be definitely be successful in our endeavors. He has a great personality and I look forward to working with him again soon!!

Wonderful trip!!
Half Day walking and Wadeing (AM) on November 2, 20244 adults

We did a lot of research (walking, boating, tour duration, etc) before the trip and decided to go with Clifford for 6 hours. We are very glad with our decision except that we had way too much fun that 6 hour ended up being too short!! Highly recommend to all!

Cliff is great for the salmon river trip
2024 PM October Special Walk & Wade on November 2, 20241 adult

Give Phil a call and be ready to learn & be patient and flexible as he is a good teacher - it takes a little bit for those unfamiliar with this water & its inhabitants to be coaxed this time of year until the steelhead come in more.

Captain Clifford's father was a fishing guide in upstate New York on the Salmon River in Pulaski, NY. The captain grew up fishing for Salmon and Steelhead in the Salmon River and Lake Ontario since the time he could walk. He went to Alaska as a teenager to work at a fishing lodge, and it was there that he realized Salmon fishing was the path for him. Capt. Clifford and his wife Anna have been guiding fishermen and guests on fishing expeditions for 26 years now, and they hope to have you join them on one of their amazing Lake Ontario and Pulaski Salmon River fishing expeditions.
