I went out with Nate and tried a completely new fishing style. He was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and kind throughout the trip. I highly recommend this experience and definitely plan to fish with him again in the future!

I booked a half-day trip for my wife, our two boys (ages 9 and 11), and myself. Our guide, William, was fantastic with the kids, ensuring their safety in the river and providing clear, age-appropriate instructions. On our July 25th trip, we reached our limit in under two hours and took home around 65 lbs of salmon fillets. The ChasingTales Alaska team was outstanding—I highly recommend them and look forward to booking another trip in the future!

Our guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We landed a massive King Salmon, plenty to feed a family of ten—with leftovers to spare!

Sean and Nate were fantastic, especially with the kids. Thanks, guys!

Our group of six limited out on salmon in under two hours—what an incredible day! It was our first time river fishing, and the captain and crew provided excellent instructions and assistance. Highly recommend this experience!

Apologies for the delayed response! Our fishing guide was fantastic—he took us to the perfect spot, and we quickly caught our limit. Thanks so much! Next time, I’ll have to add some trout fishing to the trip.
