Service Information

Whether it’s a fast and furious day of catching Coho and Trout, fighting the Mighty King Salmon, or racing to keep up with Steelhead, our trips are designed to thrill any fishing enthusiast.

Any day on the water is a great day, come FISH LIKE A CHAMPION TODAY.

Spring (April-May) Fishing:
We will target Coho and King Salmon. The Coho are a smaller species of salmon and Captain Mike’s favorite to cook. The King Salmon are tough and will fight you all the way to the boat - everyone wants to catch kings!

Summer (June-August)
We will target all species and don’t be surprised if we end up catching four or more different species. Nothing takes off faster than Steelhead and they love to jump out of the water like a freshwater marlin! Be ready to haul in Lake Trout from deep down in the lake, sometimes over 400 feet of line!

Awesome & experienced captain! We came out on way less than optimal conditions, and we still managed to land a good number of salmon & steelhead. In addition, one of our party is a 83 year old gentleman with mobility issues, and the crew went out of their way to make sure he was safe and comfortable. If I could give this outfit 6 stars, I would!
