It’s a shame that my boys 10 and 15 had never been fishing before this, but we picked the right guide with Dustin.  Dustin was absolutely responsive from the initial booking and fully exceeded our expectations especially since we did not know what to expect.  He met the challenge of our inexperience by providing all equipment, escorting us to a great spot and patiently showed the boys and I how to fish.  Dustin continually gave pointers about technique.  Even when my 15y/o asked question after question about fish preparation, Dustin took the time to make sure he understood everything.  It was a fantastic experience and the boys can not wait to go again.  They have specifically requested that we go with Dustin next time.  I hope that Dustin will let us go with him again after my 10 y/o snagged him.  We couldn’t have asked for a better day on the river.  See you next year Dustin!

Dustin is hands down the best guide you could have.  We had the best time, learned alot, and caught some fish.  Total we caught 4 Sockeyes, a Jack (which is a young king salmon) and a couple of kings that didn’t stay on.  When we started fishing there were a number of boats trolling the same area.  Then…..Bam my line goes.  I reeled in a King Salmon, 35-40 lbs and somewhere between 42-46 inches.  I however could not keep this fish as you could only keep Kings under 34”.  It was the best fun.  Dustin is your guy, not just a great guide but a great stand up guy who says something and follows thru.  You want a great time, CALL DUSTIN

Taught us what we needed to know for fishing the Kenai River for Sockeye.  We got our limit in a little less than a hour.  That means he put us on the fish right away.  He recommended the Kasilof River to do on our own since the limit wash
6 on that river, Kenai was only 3. 
I highly recommend the use of Captain D’s charter for the novice to the advanced.

Thanks Captain D for your knowledge. We got 6 in the Kasilof later that day.  It was an amazing Day #1 of 7 for fishing.

Dustin is a very knowledgeable fisherman. He is also great at communicating and keeping you updated on fishing in the area. I would recommend Captain D’s.
