Book your next trip with Apocalypse Fishing and find out what the fishing in Altmar is all about. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Nick is prepared to put you on fish.

Species like Chinook Salmon, Atlantic Salmon, Coho Salmon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Brown Trout, and more could be biting if you cast your line at the right time of year. During the trip, you might be spinning, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Nick also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

You’ll be dropping lines from a 16’ Hyde drift boat with a capacity for 4 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, along with lures.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It’s always wise to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Apocalypse Fishing will make it easy for you to go fishing in Altmar. So, how about booking that trip?

October 12th Salmon Slaughter
Afternoon salmon trip 1pm till on October 12, 20252 adults
This was a 15th birthday trip for my son. Captain Nick was awesome. We had no clue how to use a fly rod, and he had us fishing like pros within 10 minutes. Took us about 30 minutes to get on the fish, and once we did we never stopped! We were catching fish until my son was so exhausted fron fighting these monsters that he had to tap out. The river was gorgeous, it felt like we somewhere in Colorado. Any time we had a snag or snapped a line, Captain Nick had us back fishing in seconds. Between netting our catches, tying our rigs and keeping us on the fish, he never stopped. We will be back again, maybe this winter for some steelhead!

King Salmon Fishing Trip
Full day salmon on October 2, 20252 adults
My 15 year old brother and I took a trip with Captain Nick targeting King Salmon…and wow did we land some nice ones! Captain Nick was extremely knowledgeable and very familiar with the river and while we saw many fishermen around us struggling to land a fish, Captain Nick helped us bag and land some monsters! Can’t recommend him enough!!

Nick was great, and really knew the river. He was able to find fish in this really thin, early season water. Can't wait for dinner!

Fishing booker failed at the ONLY thing they do.
7hr Steelhead Trip on February 1, 20252 adults
The guide was great but, Fishing booker double booked the guide on the day I booked. I had to move the trip because the booking service failed. Fishing booker is a waste of time. I tried to let this go but, Fishing booker has bugged me for a review so, here it is.
