Great place. My brother has been coming here for the last few years, and I've had the chance to join him twice for steelhead. Both times have been great.

Guides are knowledgeable and do their best to make sure you have the best chance to catch something.

We usually stay in their lodging, and rates are very reasonable.

I highly recommend them if you're new to fishing the Clearwater and need some help, or if you're like us and just want a way to reconnect with friends and family with a yearly trip.

Kip was awesome. It was my first time with spey fly fishing he was very helpful with casting methods. Definitely would come back and do it again. Thank you!!!

Great guide shop, Evelyn is an excellent lady with great suggestions, she’s been doing this for a long time! Her partner (sorry I forgot your name) is a great guy with funny stories and helpful hints. Jeremy our guide was outstanding and he was kind and helpful on my wife’s first trip steelhead fishing - she will never forget it! Next we will catch some to eat! Thanks for a great trip down the Clearwater!

OVER BOOKED THEMSELVES AND CANCELED OUR TRIP AFTER IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN.
Booked a month in advance for a Thursday. Week of our guide calls and wants to move the trip to saturday due to weather. We reluctantly agreed. On Thursday morning we came into the shop to pick up some tackle to fish on foot and were told that the guide we talked to was out running a trip ( weird since our trip was moved due to weather but whatever). We left a phone number and asked for him to call us when he got off the water just looking to pick his brain a bit . We got a call back the next morning but it was the owner telling us that they did not have a guide for us anymore and that the guide we had been talking to had "been booked for a while" it was absolutely unacceptable to have a booked trip delayed and then canceled like this cost us time off work in hundreds in a hotel waiting for a trip that got canceled. I would absolutely not trust your steelhead trip with a company this unreliable.

Kip is superb, had us on several steelhead. Also learned new casting techniques for longer distance casting. Highly recommended.

Kind and helpful! Helped us out in a real pinch when our winch strap broke after a day on the water. Looking forward to scheduling a tour with them soon!

Absolutely incredible trip. The guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable and professional the entire time. Got me on 7 steelhead and one of the best guided trips I have ever been on. Awesome outfit

Their very closed mouthed about the fish and fishing. Ask what colors to try and no reply, just abunch of questions fired back at me. Their still getting my money when I buy lures or bait from them?!
