Pricing & Trip Information

Your trip will begin in the morning at an identified meeting location, your guide will make sure you have everything you need for the day of angling. You will than head up the river and launch the boat on the section of river you will be fishing. You can expect to be on the river for 6 to 8 hours, unless you need to be off the water sooner. The trip will conclude at the take out where business cards and money will change hands. If you have fish to take home it will be processed by your guide. Female salmon or steelhead eggs will be retained by the guide to replace the bait that was used and to replenish supplies. The boats seat 2 people comfortably, in some cases your guide may accommodate 3 fisherman. Larger parties can be accommodated if notified in advance and guides are available.
