Fishing
For Steelhead in California
Welcome to California; home to the Wine
Country, beautiful Pacific beaches, and the majestic Redwoods. But one
thing that many people might not associate with California is great Steelhead
Fishing. Steelhead fishing is often considered a rugged trek involving
long hikes, snow flurries, and just plain freezing your butt off, as icy
fingertips attempt to tie knots and re-bait hooks. Let me be the first
to say that Oregon, Washington, British Colombia, and Alaska can keep
their weather! Now lean back, close your, eyes, and imagine kicking back
in a driftboat with a couple of your buddies, on an emerald green river,
floating through the redwoods. Take a deep breath, smell the air, and
smile because you just caught a beautiful wild California Steelhead. While
Northern California DOES actually have a winter with cool wet weather,
it would be a rarity to hear someone complain about their line being frozen
to the end of their rod. Now I’m NOT saying that you should leave your
rain gear at home, but there is a pretty good chance that you won’t have
to use it.
Guided
California Steelhead Fishing
Our California Steelhead Guide Service
offers you the chance at catching a fish that many anglers only dream
about. A steelhead is the ultimate game fish, a rare trophy that words
cannot do justice. The hook-up, the fight, the quick picture, and the
satisfaction of sending the wild beauty back into the emerald green water
is a thrill that every fisherman (or woman) should experience. You will
be guided by a top notch professional steelhead guide, with the tools
and expertise to help you catch your trophy. I have grown up learning
how to fish the California Steelhead Rivers, and have found that putting
other people on fish is as enjoyable for me as catching them (almost).
I have spent the past 5 summers guiding on the world famous Kenai Peninsula,
helping clients battle the Kenai’s monstrous King Salmon. Winter and spring
bring me back to Northern California where when I’m not out on the river
chasing the California Steelhead, I’m working for the California Department
of Fish & Game (in a Steelhead Hatchery What else). Yes I spend a
lot of my life working with fish, be it raising them or catching them.
When you choose to fish with me you will be assured that you will fish
from a clean comfortable quiet drift boat. No motors to disrupt the peacefulness,
just a pair of arms and a pair of oars. I will supply you with quality
gear, rods, reels, tackle, ect… if you would like to bring along your
own rod and reel, just let me know ahead of time so I can help you choose
what type of line to spool up. Whether you are an accomplished angler
or a
person who has never held a fishing rod before, I can help you catch a
California Steelhead!
