Cooper Landing, AK – 10 July 2024: Jason's Guide Service, a leading provider of guided fishing trips in Alaska, is committed to sustainable fishing practices on the Kenai River. With a dedication to preserving the natural beauty and fish populations of one of Alaska's most renowned rivers, Jason's Guide Service is taking proactive steps to ensure that future generations can continue to enjoy the unparalleled fishing experiences the Kenai River offers.

With over 30 years of fishing experience, Jason Lesmeister, founder of Jason's Guide Service, has always been passionate about the conservation of Alaska's fisheries. Understanding the importance of sustainable fishing practices, Jason's Guide Service is implementing several initiatives designed to protect the delicate ecosystem of the Kenai River.

Jason's Guide Service promotes catch-and-release programs, particularly for species that are vital to the river's ecosystem. By educating clients on proper catch and release techniques, Jason and his team ensure that fish are handled with care, increasing their chances of survival after release. The company uses eco-friendly fishing gear and biodegradable materials whenever possible. This includes using lead-free tackle and environmentally safe lures to minimize the impact on the river's environment.

Education is at the heart of Jason's Guide Service's sustainability efforts. Guides take the time to teach clients about the local ecosystem, the importance of conservation, and responsible fishing practices. This not only enhances the fishing experience but also fosters a sense of stewardship among anglers. Jason's Guide Service actively collaborates with local conservation organizations and participates in initiatives aimed at preserving the Kenai River. This includes habitat restoration projects, clean-up events, and supporting research on fish populations and river health.
"At Jason's Guide Service, we believe that preserving the Kenai River is not just an option; it's a responsibility. Our commitment to sustainable practices ensures that we can continue to enjoy and share the incredible fishing experiences this river offers while protecting its natural beauty and fish populations for future generations. We are proud to lead by example and inspire others to fish responsibly," said the company’s spokesperson.

Beyond fishing practices, Jason's Guide Service is committed to sustainability in its business operations. This includes reducing waste, using renewable energy sources when possible, and implementing eco-friendly practices in their day-to-day operations. Jason's Guide Service is proud to be a “GREEN” business of Adventure Green Alaska.

All fishing trips with Jason's Guide Service are conducted out of a 19-foot Willie Drift Boat. The drift boat is a motorless boat designed to fish on the drift. Fishing drift-only is a more peaceful and environmentally friendly way to fish. This approach ensures that no carbon pollutants are emitted into the water and no noise pollution is created. Fishing the Kenai River out of a drift boat is a great way to get lost in the drift, waiting for that huge take to happen and the battle to begin.

Jason's Guide Service is now accepting bookings for sustainable guided fishing trips on the Kenai River.
