Trip Summary

Fog couldn’t stop Captain Doug this morning on the Knik River! Through the mist and classic Alaska conditions, we hooked into action and landed 2 beautiful king salmon. Another unforgettable morning on the water and another reminder that the Knik can produce even when the weather tries to keep things interesting. Who’s ready to chase the next big one?

What a day on the Knik River! Captain Terry had the crew dialed in and the anglers put 2 beautiful king salmon in the boat today. The action was exciting, the smiles were big, and the whole group had an absolute blast making memories on the water in Alaska. Nothing beats fresh air, bent rods, and king salmon in the net. Great job to the anglers, and another awesome trip with Captain Terry!
