An entry route into the Kenai Riverside Lodge fishing program for someone who wants river time without yet holding a captain’s licence. The assistant supports the guide team and moves boats, trailers and clients between put-ins and take-outs on the upper Kenai River during the lodge’s summer season. A valid driver’s licence is required and trailer-towing experience is preferred, since much of the day is spent shuttling vehicles and gear on Sterling Highway access points. First Aid and CPR certification is required. The lodge lists a $15 per hour minimum plus incentives, with subsidized room and board on site. Applications are handled through the operator’s central how-to-apply page.
