Each of these guys were professional, courteous, and friendly--they went above and beyond to ensure we had the "opportunity and position" to catch some giant halibuts. While the waters were choppy and the big ones weren't biting--Cooper repositioned us and boom! We were landing some 30 to 45 lbs fish. Totally worth the trip. Additionally, as a dad, I loved watching my son (Chase) work as a deckhand. At 23, he's spent 6-years in Alaska fishing--his hustle, fishing skills, and interactions with the other four guest provided once in a lifetime "proud dad" moments I'll always remember. Thanks Jimmy Jack for the superb fishing trip and for growing my son into a phenomenal man. And Capt Cooper thank you for being a great example of professionalism to Chase. Huge and Happy Heart from this old man!! Much love-- Chip Chadick

Both guides gave us plenty of tips on where to try to fish. Badger even cooked us all lunch with the freshly caught salmon. My boyfriend and I both caught our limit of sockeye salmons for the day. We also saw multiple bears which made the trip even more exciting. I will be remembering this wonderful experience for a long long time. Thank you all so much!

Nice little place for four people. It was just two this time. Plenty of seasonings and spices. And there was a grill outside! Their dogs were absolutely adorable. This was a lot of fun for kids because there was even a trampoline they let us use. They were super sweet. Easy parking. Really great price. And I would highly recommend this company!

Record breaking Salmon in Kenia and Kasilof rivers. Brian (guide) was the best guide I have every had the pleasure of meeting (safe, knowledgeable and new exactly where the fish were) We limited out three different days (first day 90 min, second day under 60 min, third day 120 min). Eagle Head Lodge was also amazing, clean lots of space to fish the river from the docks, Jerry (host) super helpful with everything we needed. Rooms were clean and well stock with everything you will need for a great vacation\fishing trip. Fly out trip was amazing, not many fish but the location was amazing. Also lots of Bear watching from the boat. Safe float plane flights with a pass over the glaciers, great photos. Jessica, is a scheduling wizard. She make sure everything is taken care of perfectly. Super helpful. Only things we will not book again was the Salt Trip. There may be better options in the area for more professional staff. All around amazing trip, hopefully we will be back up in Alaska in 2027

Both did a Fantastic job of satisfying our every need on our recent trip to Alaska. On the Kasilof River, we caught our limit each time of beautiful, large Coho Salmon (silver Salmon) with the guides Mike and Pops. We fished the Kenai River with Brian one afternoon and did very well also. Jessica did a great job communicating with and serving us! Sometimes, the weather can change your schedule but, she was very flexible accommodating our wishes. We also fished out of Homer on two occasions with Badger at the helm and reeling faster than anyone I've ever seen. He worked amazingly hard with his first mate, Mike. We caught Halibut, Yellow-eye Red Snappers, Black Cod and a Huge Ling Cod! We threw back many small Halibut but came away with some nice 20-30 pounders. All in all, we brought home 104 pounds of filets. Enough to last us for two years (LOL)! This was our second trip with Russell Fishing and Eagle Head. Both were the very best!! We did notice that our fishing results seemed to be better than other boats. I have to give full credit to the Top-Notch guides we had. Thank you Jessica, Russell Fishing and Jerry Johnson at Eagle Head!! Anne and Jim Waddell
