Fishing the Kenai with Adam will truly be one of the most memorable days of my life. We did the 6 hour trip and I regret not doing the 8 hour. I booked this trip for my family of four that included my husband, my 18 yr. old son, my 13 yr. old daughter, and myself. You have the beautiful Kenai River with water that looks like it's from the Caribbean Ocean You have the gorgeous mountains and wildlife of Alaska, but to make it a perfect day you have Adam working like crazy to make sure your family catches fish. He works by rowing that drift boat loaded with gear and people up river so you can drift back down and make your catch. Plus, he's just a great guy to hang out with all day!
Bumping into Adam of Five dogs Fishing one morning in the summer of 13 turned into a wonderful fishing trip down the Kenai River, my 1st. Now, this summer will be my second and for sure it will be with Adam...can't wait. Wonderful guy and guide
My sons and I had a great time; unfortunately, no salmon were running so we caught a few smaller "throwbacks" that were a fun experience. Next time I will try to book closer to the middle of July when the reds might be running.This was not a visit for "teens," but for me and my grown sons.
No reason to look further... Five Dogs Fishing and Adam were one of the major highlights on our trip to Alaska. Adam took my 77 year old father, my 14 year old son and myself out for a half-day fishing trip. Adam was amazingly patient, helpful, knowledgable and kind. AND, to top it off, we caught a delicious salmon which we grilled for dinner!
We drove past the Kenai river on our way to Homer and decided we had to fish that river. We set up a time with Adam for a few days later. It was by far the best part of our two week Alaska trip! We had so much fun we scheduled another trip for the next day! Adam is a great guide and Danette made the scheduling and payment painless. Great people. Highly recommend!
If we could just meet up and fish somewhere once every other month or so, I wouldn't complain!
I will never forget the acupuncture I aquired that day! Great to be in your company that day you are a truly passionate angler and that is greatly admired.I had a lot of fun netting fish for you and your lady, let's do it again.
We really enjoyed being in your family's company and had an exceptional time as well. It's great to see anglers enjoy the fish catching moments as well as the adventure of the drift. Your family's great attitude is what made the trip. We'll be here for you when you come again.
Thank you Good Sir!You guys rocked it out there that day.Adam
We had the most amazing time with Five Dogs Fishing!My husband and I went out for one afternoon of fishing with Adam and had such a good time that we booked a second trip, later in the week. I had absolutely ZERO experience fly fishing, and my husband's experience was minimal. Adam's instruction was perfect, and we were both able to catch several different types of fish. Of the salmon that we caught, we were able to keep five for eating.Adam is a fun guy who entertained us, not only with his skills, but also with good conversation. And we really feel like fishing the Upper Kenai is the only way to go. The setting couldn't be better, and we weren't standing elbow-to-elbow with a bunch of other fisherman.Also, the logistics of it were great- Adam's wife was super friendly and helpful. The experience was so good, the logistics would hardly have mattered, BUT they rocked in this department as well. It was great to be on vacay in Alaska, not knowing much of anything about what we were doing, and to have such an easy, enjoyable experience.So ready to go back.
