  Waters Where I Provide Guiding Services: South Eastern Washington/North Eastern Oregon

 bamboo rod Summary  I'm fortunate enough to be located in some of the most brutal country in the west, the Grande Ronde River drainage of Hell's Canyon.

My main services are one day Steelhead float trips from Sept-April, with the monsters grabbing at dry flies in the Sept-Oct 15th time frame, from there out it's usually a sub surface or weighted fly.

I also offer drift trips for Native Rainbows and Smallmouth Bass. I also offer overnight float trips and longer whitewater trips on the Snake and Salmon Rivers can be arranged.

I love to introduce people the fly fishing and have found that a float trip, dry fly fishing for trout and bass is the best way to get started. For a truly unforgettable day of fishing no matter your fishing level, book a trip with me!
