Shawn was a geat captain who spent the whole day working hard, putting me and my son on fish at every hole. His command of he boat was superb and the few stretches of turbulent water were navigated wit ease. Most importantly, both me and my son were new to drift boat fihing and bounce casting and Sawn was exceptionally patient with us as we learned the technique. Pulling in a nice 15lbs chinook was the cherry on top of a wonderful day fishing one of the most beautiful rivers in Oregon.
captain Shawn was very knowledgeable regarding the best locations and techniques on the Upper Rogue river. He also is a good teacher, we learned a lot
Thank you. I really enjoyed having you two in the boat today.
The one thing i did take home was the fact He spent time to teach me the skill set of fishing on the river.
Our fishing guide Issac was very knowledgeable, personable and was a great guide. He knew all the good spots and how to setup the lines. Both my friend and I were able to land 3 salmon all together. Had a lot of fun and will be back again with this fishing guide again.
