We had a blast fishing with Gabe and crew. He taught us how to spot salmon and target them with our casts. Apparently it was a slow day for fishing but by our standards it was both thrilling and bountiful. We caught three 5-6 lb sockeye and Gabe caught a bunch more sending us home with nearly 40lbs of fish. That’s quite the haul for a half day and without chartering a boat. We’d definitely do it again.

Gab and Dominguez (friends since they were Marines together in boot camp) took a mixed group of young and old (11 to 67), male and female, novice and experienced, and made the day a delight! One of our group had never even caught a fish before! They expertly guided us all.  You can tell that Dominguez is a teacher “off season”, and Gabe is a fish whisperer. No need for Dramamine or the fear of open ocean; shore fishing is a great option. We caught lots of fish in the most beautiful scenery.... More

Gabriel and Luis were the best!  They supplied excellent waiters and fishing equipment for us for our outing, and when it became apparent that we would not be catching anything due to the sea lions in the area, they took us sightseeing to a nearby park to watch the salmon running!  They definitely went above and beyond to ensure that we had a wonderful time!!

Gabe and Dominguez (and Biscuit and Gill) were excellent guides and easy going. Awesome experience for beginners or seasoned pros. Gabe and Dominguez gave thorough demonstrations and offered additional help when needed. We caught a bunch of salmon and had a blast with the group while doing it. Can’t beat fishing Alaskan waters with the gorgeous view of the mountains in the background. Hope to be back soon, and will definitely book with First Cast Fishing! P.S. Gabe takes the BEST fish...
