We had an absolute blast on our full day salmon fishing trip. Caleb was a terrific captain, most of our group had never been fishing before and everyone caught a fish. Highly recommend Caleb, we cant wait to go out fishing with him again!

Caleb and Kyle were awesome (two drift boats!) We had such a great time! Grandson (8 yrs old) learning to fish (he caught one with help), adults learning techniques, possible in laws...with bonding time, caught Steelhead too! Caleb was very aware of the weather conditions as the weather was questionable up to the day and we caught a perfect window! Would recommend Caleb all day long! Thank you for your knowledge and a great experience.

My family and I couldn't ask for a better fishing trip with Caleb. His knowledge and experience getting us on fish can not be matched. All the gear provided was top notch matched with his knowledge of the fishery provided us with a day we will never forget. We will definitely book again with Caleb. Thank you Caleb!
