Captain
John Kernaghan

Member since June 2023 Everett, United States
Background
John has been fishing in Washington for most of his life. Chasing Salmon has always been a passion of his, from the saltwater to the rivers and lakes, he does it all. He's had many different boats in his life, and guided for several years in his younger days. Fishing is his favorite thing to do, and after many years of fishing on his own time with friends and family, he decided to get back into guiding. John has a wealth of knowledge and is always trying to find the next hot thing when it comes to fishing. He is constantly trying new techniques to stay on top of the ever-changing seasons and fish.
Techniques
John is always trying new things, and figuring out what the fish want, which means he's not afraid to change up techniques and locations if something isn't working. He loves to troll for Salmon, but will also jig and mooch for them when conditions are right. He also employs many different techniques and types of gear when he heads to the lakes and rivers.
