First let me say that this has been a great summer! Lots of whitewater and lots of fishing. And new beginnings, we are rolling out a new offering to Upper Kittitas County youth. An after school fishing trip down the Yakima River. Stoked to get kids outside and enjoy our natural world. For more information check out our YOUTH FISHING PAGE
For all us kids we need to remember that fall is some of the best fishing on the Yakima all year, take a look!

And as summer comes to an end i’d like to share one of my favorite adventures. A trip down the White Salmon River! Now i’ve done tons of trips down the White Salmon as a whitewater raft guide and as a kayaker, but this was new territory. We took my custom designed fishing raft (info on that later) and put it to the test on its ability for fishing and whitewater. Check it out;
We were fishing waters only accessible by boat and those comfortable running technical and committing whitewater. The whitewater went fairly smooth, including Drew running steelhead falls, but the fishing could have been more productive. We connected with a few resident trout and maybe had some tugs from steelhead in a promising hole but otherwise slow. A little late this year I think. Still an amazing experience and its cool to cast a line somewhere others can’t so easily.
If you are interested in adventures like this then I doubt there is any other place to talk to, look forward to adventuring with you soon! Get a hold of us!
