History

Established in 2006.

I found myself with a serious fishing problem early in life. For years I would take my friends out fishing. I realized I really enjoyed helping them catch fish and seeing the gleam in their eyes when they landed that trophy fish. I realized that if I was going to enjoy what I do for a career I’d better look into being a Fishing Guide. It took a few years to get the proper Licensing and put it all together, but in the Spring of 2006 at the age of 30 my dream had become a reality. Now 6 years later I am a successful full time fishing guide who loves his job. I look forward to each day I get to be on the water.

Larry K.

Business Owner

I was born and raised here in Portland Oregon. I began fishing with my dad by the time I could walk. From trout to catfish, bluegill, crappie, perch, salmon, steelhead, sturgeon, walleye, we fished throughout the year. I bought my first boat when I was 17 and began fishing every chance I got. I really had a passion for Salmon. They can be one of the most difficult fish to master. Each year I learned a little more and now I’m very successful at it. I love fishing and the challenge of getting people into fish on every trip.
