Thank you for the review Eric! it was a pleasure fishing with you and Lovely! Congratulations again on your marriage!
I came out to Washington for business and am an avid fisherwoman from California. I really wanted to try fishing in Washington because of the beautiful scenery and loads of waterways. I looked into buying gear and leaving it here with a friend but realized I would be spending roughly the same amount anyway so I found this site and booked an all day trip with David. He is super knowledable and taught me the basics of fly fishing. And could tell I was catching on pretty quick so taught me even more techniques. He went over everything I would need to start and be good at fly fishing. The gear he had was great and he always made sure there was a rod and real ready with a fly to fish with. I was a bit timid about going out all day as it would be a lot of sun and i had a 2 hr drive back to my hotel. The whole day amount was so worth it as I got a lot of fishing time and learned a lot. I would highly suggest going fishing with David if you are learning how to fly fish or an avid fly fisher and want to catch a good amount of trout on the Yakima river. Do the full day as the more you fish, the more you'll learn with David. Thank you so much David!
If you’re looking for a fly fishing guide, I highly recommend David! This was my first fly fishing experience, and it couldn’t have gone any better. David is incredibly passionate about fly fishing, very friendly, and has a wealth of knowledge about the sport. He took the time to explain different rig setups, flies, knots, leader lengths, how to read the water, and much more. Most importantly, he taught me how to cast a fly rod, and I was even fortunate enough to catch a few different fish species during the trip! It was truly an unforgettable experience, and I learned so much in a single outing. I’m already looking forward to many more fly fishing adventures in the future. Thanks again, David!
great fishing with you Michael! so stoked we were able to get into your first fish on a fly!

I’ve gone fishing with David a number of times, and have a great experience every trip. David is incredibly knowledgeable and extremely patient, which probably came in handy during our first few outings. Not only has he gotten me multiple personal bests, but he has made me a better fisherman. Highly recommend booking a trip with him!
Had a great day floating the Yakima with Dave. He was personable, friendly and so knowledgeable about the hatch, the water conditions and all the hidden little buckets along the float. He had cold waters and a cheerful smile. I landed my personal best Yakima fish on this float. I would highly recommend fishing with Dave.
