About Alpine Fishing Adventures
Alpine Fishing Adventures is Summit County's specialist Lake Dillon fishing outfitter, offering guided pontoon boat charters, ice fishing excursions, and fly fishing trips from a base near Keystone, Breckenridge, and Frisco. Owner and head guide Randy Ford led the first-ever permitted ice fishing trip on Lake Dillon in 2013 and has been the go-to authority on the reservoir's rainbow trout, kokanee salmon, arctic char, and brown trout populations ever since.
Summer trips run aboard a fully equipped pontoon charter boat with trolling gear, downriggers, and fish-finding electronics — guests just show up and fish. Ice fishing packages include heated huts, all tackle and bait, comfortable seating, and sonar units so you can watch fish approach your line in real time. Fly fishing trips head to nearby rivers and streams for a more traditional wade-fishing experience. All trips are private and accommodate families, beginners, and experienced anglers alike.
What makes Alpine Fishing Adventures unique is Randy's encyclopedic knowledge of Lake Dillon's structure, seasonal patterns, and fish behavior. His guided trips consistently produce fish even on tough days, and his relaxed teaching style makes the experience genuinely fun for kids and first-timers. If you want to fish the lake rather than the rivers, this is the outfitter to call.
