Capt Michael has been casting in this area for many years now and knows all there is about fish movement, the techniques, and which equipment to use. The ultimate catch is Spring Chinook Salmon and your guide will help you reach the catch limit. After the trip, he’ll clean and fillet it free of charge.

All fishing equipment is included in the price, so you only need to purchase your fishing license and pack some snacks and drinks for the day.

I have loved fishing since I was old enough to walk. It's always humbling and amazing to learn new ways of catching fish, and this is one of the reasons I fell in love with it in the first place. I deeply love the Tillamook area and especially the Trask River, which is probably my favorite place to fish. When I take my customers out, I don't look at my watch – I treat every outing as a fun day with friends!
