When Kate and Justin crump started Frigate Travel together, they had a couple simple goals: Provide a top-notch fishing experience for their clients, and free up some time for their own adventures during the off-seasons. With more than a decade as two of the most sought after steelhead guides on the Oregon coast, and with an ever-deepening connection to Bristol Bay, AK, they've had no problem sticking with #1, but as any outfitter or lodge operator knows, free time is an ever-vanishing commodity.
In this episode, we chat about their progression from being seasonal guides in Alaska and Oregon to becoming full-on outfitters bringing to life a new generation of fishing lodge on Alaska's Naknek River and Tillamook Bay, OR. Their committment to the people and places that make their endeavors possible is admirable and instructive.
