Something my sons will remember for a very long time
Half Day Trip Shared Boat on July 23, 20264 adults

Trip was changed to the Kasilof River the evening before the trip due to a low fish count on the Kenai river. Great decision by our guide JAKE. Can’t say enough good things about Jake. We had been fishing the Kenai the previous 3 days without a guide and even the locals were having very little luck there. Jake asked us if he could change the time from 6am to 3am because he thought we would have better success. Perfect decision by Jake.

Awesome trip!
Half Day Trip Private Boat on July 15, 20267 adults2 children

Guides Jake and Noah did a wonderful job with our mixed family group of serious fishermen, little ones, and older, less agile folks. Quick to give a helping hand, and full of interesting stories, they made the trip! That, and that the serious fishermen caught fish.

Salmon Experience
3/4 Day Trip Shared Boat on June 25, 20263 adults

Jake was our guide. We met him at 3:20AM to begin our experience. Other groups around us were getting salmon but we were not quite getting them. Jake moved us to two other locations. The three people in our party each got one eventually. Jake kept us out longer to do this. The time says 6AM but you go when the calculate the salmon will be upstream from the tide.

Sockeye Salmon
