If you’re looking for a world-class fishing experience on the Clackamas River, look no further than Captain Zory with Be Wild Fishing Guide Service. I recently took my son out for a day trip, and it exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we stepped into the boat, Captain Zory’s expertise was on full display. He clearly knows this river inside and out — putting us right on the fish and sharing his knowledge every step of the way. We ended up landing some beautiful fish including a nice sixed spring Chinook salmon, which made for an incredibly exciting day on the water! My son was absolutely thrilled, and watching his face light up with every catch is a memory I’ll treasure forever. There’s nothing quite like sharing that kind of experience with your kid no matter his age. The scenery along the Clackamas was absolutely breathtaking — the kind of backdrop that makes you want to slow down and soak it all in. And through it all, Captain Zory was patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the time of our lives. His passion for the sport and this river truly shines through. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just looking to share something unforgettable with your family, I can’t recommend Be Wild Fishing Guide Service highly enough. We’ll absolutely be back. Thank you, Captain Zory — you made it a trip we’ll never forget!
I was honored to have the opportunity to take you and Dalton out! I love getting to share these Salmon and their habbitat with visitors from afar. Hope I see you both again! Thanks for booking with me.
We have been fishing with Zory many times. He is always on time, friendly, and professional. He is extremely knowledgeable, he really knows his stuff. I have literally been in a line of boats where people in front of us and after us caught nothing, but we did! Even on slow days his positive attitude and tanacity keeps it fun. Saftey is a priority for Zory and he tries very hard to keep his customers happy. His equipment is top notch and I would and do recommend him. Go fishing with Zory you won't be sorry. FISH ON!
You guys were awesome to have on the boat! Thanks for being wonderful guests, and I'm so glad we were able to get your nephew his first steelhead!
Fantastic fishing trip! Zory was extremely knowledgeable and very patient with us since it was our first time salmon fishing. It was more than just a fishing trip, it was also a beautiful scenic adventure with amazing wildlife sightings. I would 100% recommend him as a guide. He’ll definitely put you on some fish!
We had a great day! Hit me up next time you're in town! Thanks for booking a trip, brother.
We fished on the Clackamas river with Zory. He is very knowledgeable and a great guide. He is enjoyable to be with and is very knowledgeable about the local fish and fishing techniques. Highly recommend fishing with him!
Had a great time! Thanks for coming out!
Zory took my son and I on a boat on the Clackamas River. My son caught two Salmons thanks to Zory’s advices and experience. It was a great experience!

Your captain
Portland, Oregon, United States
I was born and raised in Oregon and have a deep passion for fishing, our watersheds, and the great outdoors. I love fishing for Salmon and Steelhead and have years of experience doing so. As an Estacada local, the Clackamas River is in my backyard, and the Sandy River is a close neighbor. When I'm not floating the river, I am raising my two children alongside my beautiful wife and helping men recover from addiction.
