As the state and the tribes are bickering over the Puget Sound Rivers we are putting together some options for our guys. The Puget sound rivers may still open but in the mean time we are now booking for Methow River Trout, Cowlitz Steelhead, trout on area beaches, and Grande Ronde Steelhead in the fall.
Methow trout: July – September - Booking now! Free dozen flies if you mention this add.
One of my favorite fisheries. Dry fly gets going in July and lasts through the summer. The species include rainbows, cutthroat, bull trout and the coveted Cuttbows (we have caught those up to 7 lbs!) We float in our rafts and most days are spent wet wading in warm weather with a beautiful back drop and plenty of fish opportunities.

Grande Ronde: October - Fall Steelhead
Single day trips and our popular 3 day cabins and campout. Prime dates are booking up now. 
preseason rates for the 3 day trip are $650 pp double occupancy. That includes lodging, food and any equipment needs. Contact me for a sample itinerary.Check out our slideshow here -
