Spend the day with RiverLife Guide Service and find out what the fishing in Cook is all about! With Captain Leon at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

These waters are known for Walleye, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Sockeye Salmon, Salmon, Kokanee Salmon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Sturgeon, Catfish, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. On these trips, you can expect to troll using light tackle.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Also remember to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

You'll be welcome aboard a 23' Boulton center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You will need to get 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.

Don't leave home without sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now's the time to experience fishing in Cook for yourself, with RiverLife Guide Service!
