Had a perfect day with Captain Mike! Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. Non stop action with an all around amazing guide.

Made a trip from Spokane Washington November 22. Little nervous with the amount of rain that the Humptulip had received recently. Captain Mike made every effort possible to put us on the fish considering the high water levels . Despite unfavorable conditions Mike put us on many fish, and limited on big Coho before the day was over. This is a Guide who actually cares about his clients.  Mike stayed out for a full day where other guides would have called it early and that’s why I ended up with a 12 and 18 pound Coho. Captn Mike is the type of guide you hope for when making an investment for a fantastic experience
Thanks again Mike !

My Son and I were fortunate enough to schedule a trip w Capt Mike. I felt like it would be a good trip, even before arrival, as he was quite helpful in getting a few pre trip details covered. We decided to arrive a half hour earlier, as he had a feeling that the river might be a bit crowded on a Saturday and after some big rain storms. He was correct. And he knew exactly where to get us on the river. Mike had my Son on his first fish literally within minutes. He had him on a second fish within 10 mins of his first one. We had seven fish landed in the first few hours of the AM. Mike was great with suggestions for technique. He definitely made it clear that he was there to ensure we had an awesome day of stress free fishing. And we did. More fish were landed throughout the day. Mike always had another set up, ready to go, if any snags or hassle presented themselves. He shared tons of knowledge w my Son and I. We learned a great deal from our day w Mike. I would highly recommend his services to anyone, at any level of fishing. I’m sure he has the skills to help anyone improve their fishing game, while feeling safe on the water. We’ll be back to learn more from him in the near future.

Our experience with Big Fish and Captain Mike was amazing.  He was able to reschedule us without a hassle and was easy to communicate with.  He clearly has all the experience it takes and knowledge about the river to find and catch fish quickly.  He kept us actively finding and fighting fish all day even though we could have caught our limit within the first hour.  He took his time to teach us both some valuable fishing techniques, and was as patient as one could be with a 12-year-old boy.  We will be fishing with Big Fish again soon~

We had an amazing time out on the river. Mike made every effort to accommodate my needs and went above and beyond to keep us on the fish, landing them, and even cleaning them to take home. Capt. Mike was very personal in his services and he took time to explain so much. Great trip all around and the best guide I have ever worked with!
