A great hunting and fishing guide. A great chance for people without a boat and gear to catch fish. Also a great chance for making lifetime long memories with you and your kids.

Our Kokanee fishing trip was truly exceptional, thanks to our highly knowledgeable captain, who possesses a deep understanding of both the fishery and the reservoir. With his expertise in targeting the species, we efficiently reached our limit, even as other boats struggled to secure their catch. Following our successful outing, we enjoyed a leisurely exploration of the local wildlife and a serene boat ride on the reservoir, making this Kokanee salmon fishing experience an outstanding choice!

Josh truly stood out as an incredible fishing guide. His extensive knowledge of the area and the lake we fished in was remarkable. We couldn't believe the quantity of fish we were able to catch! This trip was especially significant as both my sons were wrapping up their decade-long Naval service, making it our first family vacation in a decade. It was a fantastic time with an exceptional guide. I wholeheartedly recommend Josh Fontaine for a memorable fishing experience.
