AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! - Sorry this took a few days to post but we must say we had the BEST TIME EVER!! Dave is AMAZING!! So knowledgeable and helpful.. Even though we went in with no expectations since it was still early in the season, it was the greatest experience.. And what made it even greater was that we actually caught 2 king salmon and a sockeye!! I unfortunately had to let mine go because it was a wild, but my husband got to keep his.. So Dave processed them and took us to a local fish company so we could ship them home.. I cannot speak highly enough about Dave and how he runs his business.. We are looking forward to going back and fishing again!!

Biting instead of foul-hooking - My husband and I fish a lot on the Texas coast and always catch and release. We had scheduled a full-day charter with CLFG months before our July trip. It wasn't until after we arrived in Alaska that we learned salmon aren't fished but foul-hooked in the rivers. We saw numerous salmon at the Kenai weir with injuries and lures stuck in their backs and tails. We found it very troubling. When we met Aaron, our CLFG guide, we told him that we don't want to keep any fish, that we catch and release. He immediately changed the fishing plans he had for us to accommodate our request. Instead of trying to foul-hook the fish, he said he wanted to take us to a part of the Kasilof River where we would have the entire stretch of river to ourselves. He said he had been trying to convince people that salmon will bite a lure and that there is no need to foul-hook the fish. He was right! Aaron took us to a beautiful stretch of river where we didn't see another boat the entire day. He set us up with two rigs and lures, and then we trolled with Aaron rowing the boat. Pretty soon, my husband got a strike. We caught five salmon total. But more importantly, we had the peace and quiet of nature and the satisfaction of knowing we hadn't killed or injured any of Alaska's natural resource. We couldn't have been happier. Aaron values life. If you want the challenge of fishing instead of foul-hooking, ask for Aaron. He knows how to catch salmon without maiming them.

once in a life time experience - The beautiful scenery and the fish we caught Aaron I guide was very helpful. My Aunt is 90 yrs. young and she even snagged a sockeye.
