Frequently asked questions
How much does a guided trip cost?
One angler is $400, two anglers $600, three anglers $750 and four anglers $1,000 for a full day. A $100 deposit per person holds your date.
What’s included?
All gear and bait are provided. Just bring yourself, your fishing license and a lunch, and enjoy a fun, relaxing day on the river.
Do I need a fishing license?
Yes. You need a fishing license and steelhead or salmon report cards for the state you’re fishing, California or Oregon. Tyler will tell you which river and state your trip is in.
How many people can fish?
The jet boat fishes 2 to 5 anglers (2 minimum) and the drift boats fish 2 to 3. Larger multiple-boat parties are welcome.
Is it good for beginners and kids?
Yes. Tyler teaches everything from casting and gear setup to reading water and fighting fish, at whatever pace suits you. First-timers and families are welcome.
Can we keep fish?
Hatchery fish can be kept within California and Oregon regulations. Wild steelhead are released. Bring a small cooler or bag with ice for your fillets.
What if the rivers are low or blown out?
North Coast rivers are subject to low-flow closures. Tyler watches flows and closures closely and will talk with you about the best river for your date.
Where do we meet?
It depends on the river and season. Tyler confirms the meeting spot and start time before your trip. Expect an early start.
