Ive been fishing ever sense I could walk, I have been fortunate enough to have many great mentors in my life especially the ones that have taught me how to fish. I started out fly fishing when I was very  young, then learned more and gear and bait fishing as I got older. Now I use those things that I learned to teach people and guide them into a trip of a lifetime here in the pacific northwest. I started out my guiding career in Alaska and once I returned home to Oregon after my first experience up north I decided it was time to start my own guiding business. Ever sense then I have been blessed to be able to guide quite a few people into the first Salmon of there life. For me thats the whole reason guiding is worth it, being able to show someone the experience of lifetime, one that I have been lucky enough to have a lifetime of.  I fish in Oregon anywhere from the columbia river to central Oregon on the deschutes river, I even guide fly fishing on small streams or lakes.
