Captain
Jared Lindquist

Member since January 2020 Sterling, United States
Background
Jared Lindquist, born and raised in Moose Pass, Alaska has been fishing the Kenai Peninsula ever since he could wet a line. He grew up with the Kenai River and other tributaries right in his back yard, which made it easy for him to develop the skills of an avid fisherman and become a fishing guide. At a young age he was hooked and acquired a lifelong hobby and as the saying goes "has fish blood running through his veins. Not only is he extremely passionate for the sport and the fish that are in this paradise, but he is young, hungry and competitive. It is the unpredictable that keeps him striving to be the best possible fisherman, guide, and outdoor enthusiast he can be. Throughout his 30 years in Alaska, he has been fishing the renowned waters of the Kenai Peninsula as well as the hidden secret spots that only the true locals know about. There is never a day in the season Jared cant find some fish. Every day is a different experience and Jared will accommodate clients from all backgrounds. Whether it be your first day ever fishing or your thousandth day on the water, every client will be treated with respect, a positive attitude and enthusiasm!
Techniques
Not bias to any technique of fishing. Grew up performing all techniques using all gear. Techniques include: back bouncing, jigging, back tolling, spin casting, fly fishing, and others.
