Female October Caddis skitter across the water to pry their egg sacks loose. Large trout await. Wise is the fly-fisher who plans his or her Columbia River trip to coincide with this convergence.

We specialize in the finest Fall Caddis fishing in the Pacific Northwest. Period.

No nymphs. No streamers. Nothing but dry flies, as always. We leave the lead to the other guys …

We also don’t dribble flies downstream into feeding lanes hoping for a take – a practice more and more common among challenged Columbia guides and fly-fishers these days: why not just dangle corn and get it over with? ‘Fair chase’ applies to fly-fishing as well; learn to mend and manage line, become a better angler, and reap the benefits of setting the hook in a sportsmanlike fashion.


We’re now taking bookings for 2015. The prime fall dates fill up fast so book early to ensure your spot on next September’s calendar.
