When sickness put our scheduled skipper out of commission at the last minute, Zach Shirly pulled together a last minute perfect charter. He is very personable and fishing wise. The three of us were limited out after three hours out. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone!

Caleb was absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable and a great teacher. He was easy to talk to and very helpful. I would highly recommend his guide service to anyone who wants to catch fish.

Our first Salmon trip.  Didn’t know what to expect and was honestly very concerned about getting skunked.  But Caleb was a total Pro and patiently guided us to various spots out on the water between St. Mary’s Church and Megler Bridge.  Hooked up on some nice ones. 

After Caleb filleted the fish for us, we had the cuts vac-sealed and then packed on ice for the drive back to Portland.  To get them home, we bought some dry ice and these great little green coolers by Coleman at Fred Meyer.  We were able to check it as luggage for the 4-hour flight. 

NOTE: Save those Salmon Collars folks.  Delicious eating.  Go to any Japanese restaurant and they will charge you $20 or more bucks for them…grilled to perfection and perfect with Beer! I noticed many people tossing the heads away with collars intact!

Great time. Caleb was super responsive and great guide. We caught a handful of fish.
