We are seeking an experienced, enthusiastic, and safety-minded Fishing Guide to join our team at a premier fishing lodge located on the Naknek River in King Salmon, Alaska. This is a seasonal, full-time position with competitive pay based on experience, and includes room and board. As a fishing guide, you’ll be responsible for leading daily guided fishing trips for guests, providing expert instruction, ensuring safety on the water, and delivering a fun, memorable Alaskan fishing experience. You’ll be guiding on world-class rivers and lakes, targeting species like king salmon, sockeye, rainbow trout, Arctic char, and grayling.
Qualified candidates should have strong knowledge of fly and/or tackle fishing techniques, excellent boating skills, and the ability to work well with a wide range of guests, from beginners to seasoned anglers. A valid guide license and first aid/CPR certification are required, and preference will be given to those with experience guiding in Alaska. Strong interpersonal skills, professionalism, and a passion for the outdoors are essential.
Life at the lodge is remote and rewarding, with staff living onsite in a close-knit seasonal community. During peak fishing weeks, long and active days are the norm. Wi-Fi and cellular service may be limited, so flexibility and a love for the outdoors are important. If you’re an experienced angler who enjoys sharing your knowledge, thrives in nature, and takes pride in delivering unforgettable adventures, we’d love to have you on our team.
