    Great day on the water.

    Trout & Salmon Fishing Full Day2 adults

    We’re from Maine and like most anglers, have always dreamed of salmon fishing in Alaska. We got an early start, on the water at 5:00 a.m., but it was well worth it. The salmon were more aggressive early but bit consistently all morning long. We ended up putting 9 nice fish in the boat. Captain Drew was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be around. He is very focused in putting his anglers on the fish. I highly recommend Lost Boys Charters.

    Great Morning of Fishing!

    Salmon Fishing 3/4 Day (Popular)3 adults

    We had a great morning of fishing ! Our guide Chris was able to get us into a prime spot and got us fishing right away after a quick demonstration of the methods. He gave us tips throughout the morning and kept us going. We ended with a full limit of sockeye for three people. None of us had done this type of fishing before and we all enjoyed. My wife was the best in the group landing several larger fish. Overall it was a great experience!

    Salmon Fishing Full Day5 adults1 child

    Most operators are happy to call it quits early; but when we limited out before or time ran out, we got to go on a boat ride to the lake - where we saw Bears! Of course the salmon were running and the bears came out on their own accord, but Chris was a solid guide. He was patient with our teenaged sons, knowleadgable about the region, processes, and nature, operated with safety in mind, and had a lovely demeanor. I only wish he wasn't booked tomorrow!
