Great for Kids — and a Great Gift

Fly casting is a fantastic first fishing experience for kids — patient, one-on-one coaching, all gear provided, and a whole afternoon outside on the water. Bring your son or daughter along for a lesson, or book one just for them.

A casting lesson makes an unforgettable gift — three hours on the water with a guide, learning a skill they'll keep for life. Book a lesson for someone else the same way you'd book your own: DM @guypachner, call or text 580-827-5033, or email [email protected].

About Guy

I'm an experienced fly fishing guide based in Shattuck, Oklahoma.

I love teaching people to fly cast — especially total beginners — and I fish all over Oklahoma and Alaska.

Eight years in the fly fishing industry, guiding in Oklahoma, Alaska, and northern California.

I've traveled far and wide to catch all sorts of different fish — from Oklahoma bass, carp, and walleye to Alaska steelhead and salmon.

Alaska 2027 — Weeklong Steelhead & Salmon Trips

I guide seasonally on the Kenai Peninsula with Alaska Steelhead Company, and I'm taking people with me in 2027. These are weeklong trips — 6 nights at the lodge, 5 full days of guided fishing — for steelhead first, plus all five salmon species across the season: king, sockeye, coho, pink, and chum.

Prices:

• Standard week: $6,395 + 3% tax (double occupancy)

• Fly Out week: $8,295 + 3% tax (double occupancy) — includes 2 helicopter fly-out days

• Single occupancy: +$600 (shared bathroom) or +$1,000 (private bathroom)

2027 dates (Sunday to Saturday):

Aug 22–28, Aug 29–Sep 4, Sep 5–11, Sep 12–18, Sep 19–25, Sep 26–Oct 2, Oct 3–9, Oct 10–16, Oct 17–23, Oct 24–28.

What's included: 6 nights lodging, 5 full days guided fishing, all meals, non-alcoholic beverages, beer and table wine at dinner, ground transportation to and from Kenai Airport, fly rods, reels, and terminal tackle. Fly Out weeks add two helicopter fly-out days.

Ironclad Steelhead Insurance: Rain ruins most steelhead trips. Not this one. Our main Kenai river is glacially fed from a lake, so it physically can't blow out — heavy rain doesn't cost you a day of fishing.

Fly outs: Helicopter trips to remote rivers nobody else fishes. If you're the first angler to catch a steelhead on a run, you get to name it. Extra fly-out days available.

Spey School: Oct 24–28, 2027, $3,995 + 3% tax — 4 nights, 3 days, all-inclusive, led by Simon Gawesworth of RIO and Justin Miller.

Summer sockeye: Summer sockeye trips run through Alaska Steelhead Company's sister company, which I helped start — either way, it's me taking you fishing.

Not included: Airfare to Anchorage and Kenai, fishing licenses, liquor, waders and boots, guide and staff gratuity.

Spots are limited and these weeks fill. DM @guypachner, call or text 580-827-5033, or email [email protected] to book your week.

Boat Trips — Coming in Spring

I own a boat and will run a few select guided trips with it.

The boat is being refurbished this winter, so boat trips are not available yet — check back in the spring for details on destinations and pricing.
