Half day fishing trip with on a September afternoon. We started off the day by catching about half dozen of pink salmons. Saw a bunch of wild lives including bald eagles and harbor seals. We ended the day by catching a giant silver salmon. The fish surprisingly took a bunch of line and it took a team effort for us to land this fish. It was awesome. It was an memorable day not only because of how what we were able to catch. Captain Seth showed us great hospitality. He was patient, down-to-earth and fun to be around. He gave us a “once in a life time” Alaska fishing experience. I highly recommend others to book a trip with Captain Seth if they get a chance to.

Seth was a fantastic captain. He was very communicative before the trip and made sure we were fully prepared. We were able to bring our dog which was really fun. Even though it was super busy, Seth found us some beautiful spots that weren’t too crowded. Before we knew it, we were catchin! Seth’s coaching was great and our group of three ended up getting nine HUGE sockeye. Awesome trip. Would HIGHLY recommend.
Day two with Captain Seth on the Kasilof was insanity. Within minutes of getting set up we were off to the races with 3 of the 4 of us hooked up at the same time and it didn’t slow down until we had our limits. We had so much fun and at such a fast pace that even my daughter touched fish, something I haven’t been able to get her to do in 16 years. If you want to have fun and find fish, Seth is your guide!
When you go fishing in Alaska (or anywhere for that matter) you have to go ready to enjoy the chase and not just chase limits and trophys. We had a full day trip and we took our time, learned in environments that weren’t fast pace and Seth gave every single person the attention they needed while keeping a fire going and getting fish off hooks. We had limits but with a guide like this that was secondary. We will be back!
The all day trip we were not sure if we would catch anything. The first line thrown in he had a fish on his hook before he got it in his holder. That set the tone for the rest of the day. We had fun, we caught fish and shared life stories with Seth. The day could not have been any better from a fisherman's view.

The trip was a family event and well worth it. Seth was pleasant and conversational. He explained the equipment and how to fish clearly. Seth knows the river, has great spots. He was always ready with making certain our lines were ready and gave nice fishing instructions.
We have been in Alaska for five days and my family memebers all agree today’s adventure with Captain Seth has been the highlight of our vacation. Cap’n Seth was patient, knowledgeable, and all atound great! And everyone caught salmon. Would do it again without hesitation!
Captain Seth was the best!! We ladies had so much fun and plenty of firsts! He did great trying to help us get the elusive silver salmon. Our love for fishing was ignited after this trip. Thank you for a positive experience!
We caught sockeye, and captain Seth was awesome. Helped us all get into the fish and taught us tricks to land them. Truly a great experience, lots of fun and never felt awkward. Will definitely be back and booking him again.
Today was my wife’s first time fishing for sockeye and she caught a limit. Seth was an awesome coach, very patient! The float trio down the Kasilof River was well worth it. Lots of bald eagles, the juveniles are a beautiful sightt!

Thank you! It was great chasing Big Silvers with you, especially the one that almost took all of your line

Wow! Your review made my day. Thanks!!!!
Seth was great at teaching us how to floss for sockeye. Our first time doing this and we stayed busy with fish the entire trip. Very knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. Seth was like fishing with a life long fishing buddy though we just met him. Our family was very impressed with the experience Seth provided, book a trip with him before he fills up!

Thank you for the review Matt! Loved having you and your family out!
