When I was 12 years old I caught my first steelhead on a guided fishing trip on the Umpqua River. From that experience, I was hooked on fishing and knew I wanted to bring the thrill of catching fish on the scenic southern oregon rivers to others.<\/p>\n<p>My Professional Guiding Career started when I was 16 years old as a white water rafting guide on the wild and scenic Rogue River, in Southern Oregon. At 18, I obtained my Oregon Guide License as well my first USCG Captain License. I started Guiding trips for Steelhead and Salmon along the Umpqua River at 18. The next year at 19, I went to work in Alaska as a Saltwater Captain catching Salmon, Halibut, Lingcod and Rockfish. I have now spent over 10 years guiding fisherman in both Oregon and Alaska.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018 and 2019, I took a break from Steelhead and Salmon guiding trips here in Oregon to captain a commercial Dungeness Crab boat. It was a great experience and made me a better fisherman and overall boat captain;However, I missed the beauty of the Southern Oregon Rivers, and working with my clients who become friends. I am now back to my passion of guiding the one-of-a kind Southern Oregon Rivers for large Winter Steelhead and Salmon.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to fishing my return clients as well as getting to know new ones!<\/div><style>.porto-u-2277.porto-u-heading{text-align:left}<\/style><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator]<div class=\"porto-u-heading mb-5  wpb_custom_95aa9a11c17ad45cfabaf210d84ee7cc porto-u-8141\" data-appear-animation=\"fadeIn\"><div class=\"porto-u-main-heading\"><h2   style=\"font-weight:600;color:#081c4f;margin-bottom: 4px;font-size:30px;line-height:42px;\">Certificates\/Endorsements<\/h2><\/div><style>.porto-u-8141.porto-u-heading{text-align:left}<\/style><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ul id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1625778705601_130\" data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>CPR and First Aid Certified<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Oregon Guide License<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Alaska Guide License<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>USCG 25 ton masters license<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Alaska Marine Safety Education Association Drill Conductor Card, \u201cCold Water Survival Training\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row wrap_container=&#8221;yes&#8221;
