If you’re looking for an adventure, you’re looking in the right place.
A trip with Redhooks fishing adventures is more than just a day of fishing, it’s an adventure. While chasing fish on the water we may get an opportunity to see eagles, loons, and other wildlife.
Catching fish is always the goal but I hope to teach you the tricks and techniques that will help you catch fish not only today but also on all your future trips. You will be exposed to some of the latest electronics, rods/reels, tackle, and tactics available to help make you a better angler.
Whether you’re looking for a relaxing day in a big comfortable boat or a remote adventure portaging into the wilderness I can take you there in style.

Half day trip with Eli.
Federal Way, WA
We did a half day trip with King of the River with Eli. We had a great time. Eli worked hard to put us on the fish, but unfortunately the Reds were just not in the river. We also tried for Kings, which were catch and release but no luck there either. Nevertheless, we had a great time and would book with King of the River again.
Captain Eli made me feel like I was at home fishing with a buddy. He was very informative and realistic with expectations for the day I fished. Kings fishing was a bit slow and reds were the same. We switched over to fly fishing for trout and that kept me entertained catching a few rainbow and bull trout. Still a great day on the water and I'll definitely be back to fish with him.
