As you cruise through breathtaking river scenery, you may spot:

    River was fantastic. He really did throw out as many trixks as he could to get us catching. All four on the boat caught and took home fish there was even a King keeper. Recommended.

    Parker was great!

    Full Day Trip Shared Boat on July 2, 2025 • 2 adults

    Such a great, fun and in the know captain. Spent extra time teaching techniques to fine tune the fishing. Had a great network of other captains to get information. We limited quickly, which was great because my son and I were exhausted from the past few days. Great trip! Will use Parker for fishing and hunting in the future! Highly recommend!

You'll be hard-pressed to find a more competitive and enthusiastic guide than Chase. He's a lifelong fisherman and a long time Alaska resident. Chase started fishing the Kenai with his Papa when he was just a kid and he's been 'hooked' ever since. He's guided fly-out trips and managed lodges across the state. With over 15 years of guiding experience, Chase is as passionate as he is knowledgeable about the fishing industry. He works hard to support, protect, and conserve Alaska's natural resources for future generations to enjoy. Chase is dedicated to providing the highest quality experiences for his anglers from novice to expert and everyone in between. He takes pride in supplying top-of-the-line equipment. When you fish with Chase you're sure to have an unforgettable time! He will keep you and your crew safe, entertained, and on the fish!
