The Guide

Ted Frohlich.

I — In his own words

Owner and guide,
same person.

“Hello! I’m Ted Frohlich, the owner and fishing guide of Frohlich’s Fish Guiding since 1995.”
Ted Frohlich, owner & guide

When you book Frohlich’s Fish Guiding, the person who answers the phone is the person running the boat. That has been true out of Prince Rupert since 1995.
