A fishing trip to remember!
Full Day Trip – Steelhead on February 14, 20262 adults

We’re from Arizona, i wanted to do something fun for my husbands birthday. So i booked a surprise trip with TJs help! From my first interaction with him he was beyond helpful, helped me find a room, made a list of things i needed, etc. Morning of he picked us up at our hotel, and thats when the true adventure began. from the moment we cast our lines we were catching fish. He conversed, he taught (im an extremely new fisher), and he made it such a memorable experience for both me and my husband. We hooked fish all day long, wrong species, babies, half pounders, lost a couple big ones, and hooked these amazing ones!! We got done, and TJ cleaned and filleted our fish and packaged them up. I highly recommend booking with TJ. This was an experience and we will be back!!

Amazing Day on the River
Full Day Trip – Steelhead on November 29, 20252 adults

This was my son-in-laws first guided trip on the Rogue, and the bar that was set by Tim of Cornelison's will be hard to beat in the future. My hope was that my son-in-law would catch one Steelhead, we ended up with eleven catches and he landed three of the most beautiful fish I have seen in a long time. Tim would cover the holes thoroughly and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of how to work the waters. I am looking forward to more trips very soon with Cornelison's.

I have been fishing all over Southern Oregon since I was five years old becoming a guide has always been a passion of mine, and I finally reached a point in my life where I saw my dream come true, taking people out, catching their first Steelhead or King Salmon is the best thing about my job we are fully sponsored and endorsed with many companies and our goal is to share the beauty of our rivers, lakes and streams and fish with anybody that comes up with us. Safety is always our number one priority so things are always updated yearly with top-of-the-line, fishing equipment, boats, and gear.
