Captain Jason moved to Alaska more than 30 years ago with one goal: to make a living guiding hunters and anglers in the Last Frontier. Today, he calls Cooper Landing home and spends more than 200 days a year on the Kenai River, giving him an unmatched understanding of its ever-changing conditions. Passionate about conservation, he runs every trip from a quiet, eco-friendly drift boat and believes in protecting the fishery through responsible catch-and-release practices for native Rainbow Trout. With premium equipment and decades of experience, Captain Jason is dedicated to giving every guest the best possible day on the water.
