I grew up camping and fishing and admired the knowledge and skill of local guides. I purchased a drift boat in 1985 and became hooked on back trolling for Steelhead on Northern CA and Southern Oregon rivers.

I love to troll sardine wrapped flatfish and spinners for Fall King Salmon and side drift and back troll bait for winter Steelhead.
