A beginner and a veteran, same boat
“Griffin was super patient and helped me get up to speed enough to hook and reel in some super nice coho salmon, even with hardly no experience of my own! He was able to handle both a beginner and a seasoned veteran together on the same trip.”

On the #1 mark
“Griffin will get you into the fish, you just have to listen to his tips on how to get them in the boat and you will come home with some nice fish! I have fished with all different guides, this man is on the #1 MARK!!”
Questions
Before you book
Chinook or coho?
Both run in the fall. Chinook are the heavyweights; coho are aggressive and plentiful. Most days you’ll fish for whichever is in best.
Can we keep fish?
Hatchery salmon and steelhead can be kept within Washington regulations and the limits for the day. Wild steelhead are always released. The trophy wild steelhead trip is 100% catch and release.
Do I need a Washington fishing license?
Yes. Every angler needs a valid Washington fishing license, plus a Catch Record Card for salmon and steelhead. Buy them online from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife at wdfw.wa.gov before your trip.
