Mark Glassmaker Fishing Alaska

Mark Glassmaker has guided the Kenai River for over 36 years and has run Alaska Fishing with Mark Glassmaker since 1990, working the Kenai and Kasilof rivers for king, sockeye, silver, and pink salmon plus rainbow trout, steelhead, and Dolly Varden. Saltwater trips add halibut, lingcod, and rockfish out of Cook Inlet, Homer, and Seward, along with fly-in float-plane trips.

He and his wife Cindy, married 28 years, run the business together, with seven named riverside guest cabins and single-vendor packages that bundle guiding, lodging, and fish processing. The stated approach: every outing gets 100 percent effort and service.
