🎣 ALPINE FISHING ADVENTURES IS HIRING! 🎣
This winter I’ll be getting a little time off the water whether I like it or not!

On November 2nd, I’ll be heading in for L5-S1 ALIF surgery which means I’ll be sidelined for the rest of the season while I work on getting my back—and hopefully my walking—back in shape. Those of you who have been out with me on the ice in recent years know I’ve struggled with severe pain and moving around, this surgery has been a long time coming and I really hope it brings me some relief. Hopefully next year I’ll be back on the ice, with a couple retired sled dogs, sharing the love.

This means we’re looking for ONE FULL-TIME ICE FISHING GUIDE to join the Alpine team from approximately December 20th through April 1st.

Living in Summit County makes the job considerably easier. But if if you’ve got the experience, the personality, and the willingness to make the drive, don’t count yourself out. I may have options for a place to sleep on days I-70 is jammed up getting back to the front range

We’re looking for someone who:
💪we’re looking for somebody strong and in shape.
❄️ Loves winter and the Colorado outdoors
👊 Enjoys working with people
😂 Can have fun and make customers’ days memorable
🏔️ Is dependable and takes pride in representing Alpine Fishing Adventures
🎣loves to fish. Ice fishing experience on Dillon isn’t necessarily required. I’ve got you covered on knowing where, when, and what!

This position also has the potential to carry over to charter boat and flyfishing

Think you’ve got what it takes?

Send us an email at [email protected] and tell us why YOU would make a great Alpine ice fishing guide.

See you on the ice! 🎣❄️

The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation has proven to be one of the most successful wildlife conservation frameworks in the world—science-based, funded by hunters and anglers, and built around responsible wildlife management.

But politics and personal agendas have increasingly undermined that model and the role of Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

If we want to protect Colorado’s hunting and fishing traditions, opportunities, and rights for future generations, we need to protect the principles that made them successful.

Vote YES on Amendment 83!!!

Stacks of Lake Dillon Kokannee Salmon! The Dillon salmon are known to run smaller than the average Kokannee. But this year they are a little better size because the lower water level condenses the daphnia zooplankton, making forage more plentiful for the salmon.

Nice mess of beautiful Lake Dillon Kokanee Salmon pulled in on a little trolling session. Followed by a few Arctic Char catches on jigs!

09/09/2026

This morning’s 3-hour trip was a tale of TWO bites! 🎣

1½ hours trolling for kokanee → 8 fish and a few lost at the net.
1½ hours jigging for char → 5 fish, including a beautiful, healthy 18½” female Arctic Char!

The bite for both char and salmon is 🔥 right now! Unfortunately, our boats may be coming off the water after next week.

I’ve got availability for afternoon and evening trips over the next 10 days with a the mornings of Tuesday and Thursday next week. New customers: 10% OFF. Repeat customers: $100 OFF any trip.

Want to get in on the action before we pull the boats? Hit me up! 🎣

This afternoons trip was proof fall at Lake Dillon has begun. The Arctic Char showed some hints of pink and orange, the Kokanee Salmon were schooled up and showed some color. And the bite was on!

Great view of Tenmile and the “Silent Bob” avalanche shoot.
The aspens are beginning to pop!

Patience pays off! 🎣

Today’s morning trip to target Arctic Char started off with three hours with only a few bumps, waiting on that bite window. It finally showed up around 11:30— and when it did, it was GAME ON!

A couple Master Angler–sized Char hit the boat, along with several beautiful others in the 12–18” range.

Sometimes you just have to wait for the magic to happen! 🔥🎣

Nichole had Arctic Char on her bucket list, but wasn’t going to make it to the Arctic Circle anytime soon. So she did some research and found me! 🎣

She told me catching one would make her trip. Well, she’s a hell of an angler and ended up catching a bunch! 🏔️🎣

Bucket list: CHECK! ✔️
