Shaun's boat on Donner Lake

The main vessel is a 22-foot Boulton Sea Skiff with a full top, side curtains, back drop curtain, and a heater for those cold Donner mornings. It's so warm buttoned up, you'll be comfortable even in winter. For Feather River King Salmon, trips run out of a Design Concepts jet boat that seats four comfortably.

Shaun also offers guide instruction on your boat to help you dial in your catch rate. Call for pricing.
