    Beyond Great!

    Half Day Trip PM on September 7, 2026 • 3 adults

    Half day fishing trip with on a September afternoon. We started off the day by catching about half dozen of pink salmons. Saw a bunch of wild lives including bald eagles and harbor seals. We ended the day by catching a giant silver salmon. The fish surprisingly took a bunch of line and it took a team effort for us to land this fish. It was awesome. It was an memorable day not only because of how what we were able to catch. Captain Seth showed us great hospitality. He was patient, down-to-earth and fun to be around. He gave us a “once in a life time” Alaska fishing experience. I highly recommend others to book a trip with Captain Seth if they get a chance to.

    The Perfect Alaskan Day

    3/4 Day Trip - AM on July 26, 2026 • 2 adults

    Seth was a fantastic captain. He was very communicative before the trip and made sure we were fully prepared. We were able to bring our dog which was really fun. Even though it was super busy, Seth found us some beautiful spots that weren’t too crowded. Before we knew it, we were catchin! Seth’s coaching was great and our group of three ended up getting nine HUGE sockeye. Awesome trip. Would HIGHLY recommend.

    Sockeye Maddness

    Half Day Trip - 2:30 PM on July 18, 2026 • 4 adults

    Day two with Captain Seth on the Kasilof was insanity. Within minutes of getting set up we were off to the races with 3 of the 4 of us hooked up at the same time and it didn’t slow down until we had our limits. We had so much fun and at such a fast pace that even my daughter touched fish, something I haven’t been able to get her to do in 16 years. If you want to have fun and find fish, Seth is your guide!

    Seth was absolutely fantastic!

    Full Day Trip on July 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    When you go fishing in Alaska (or anywhere for that matter) you have to go ready to enjoy the chase and not just chase limits and trophys. We had a full day trip and we took our time, learned in environments that weren’t fast pace and Seth gave every single person the attention they needed while keeping a fire going and getting fish off hooks. We had limits but with a guide like this that was secondary. We will be back!

    Great Captain

    Full Day Trip on May 28, 2026 • 3 adults

    The all day trip we were not sure if we would catch anything. The first line thrown in he had a fish on his hook before he got it in his holder. That set the tone for the rest of the day. We had fun, we caught fish and shared life stories with Seth. The day could not have been any better from a fisherman's view.

    Exellent Guide

    Half Day Trip PM on August 27, 2026 • 5 adults

    The trip was a family event and well worth it. Seth was pleasant and conversational. He explained the equipment and how to fish clearly. Seth knows the river, has great spots. He was always ready with making certain our lines were ready and gave nice fishing instructions.

    A total blast

    Half Day Trip PM on July 29, 2026 • 3 adults

    We caught sockeye, and captain Seth was awesome. Helped us all get into the fish and taught us tricks to land them. Truly a great experience, lots of fun and never felt awkward. Will definitely be back and booking him again.

    Seth was an awesome guide!

    Full Day Trip on July 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    Today was my wife’s first time fishing for sockeye and she caught a limit. Seth was an awesome coach, very patient! The float trio down the Kasilof River was well worth it. Lots of bald eagles, the juveniles are a beautiful sightt!
