Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Corey’s guides are proper fish addicts. Trevor and Dane put us on fish and kept us busy all day on the infamous Kenai River. We brought our whole family inclding a baby and all the kids enjoyed the boat ride and beautiful views. The trout in that river get big bring your A game so you don’t miss your shot.
We had a great time fishing on the Kenai! Best wishing I’ve ever had - we limited on sockeye in an hour!

We had a great time. Kristin and Trevor were awesome and the fishing was so fun.

Had an awesome trip with Captain Corey, he got the other clients and I on some excellent red fishing. The gear was top notch and Corey got us a spot one of the best corners on the river. Once we got back to the dock he filleted the reds so fast it was unbelievable. Overall it was a delightful day on the Kenai, had the best guide service, a sunny day, and phenomenal fishing.
