Regardless of the trip type all reservations require a 50% deposit at time of booking.

We will then be in touch in the days leading up to the trip to answer any last minute questions and finalize trip specific details.

As a small business privileged to guide anglers on some of the nation's most renowned trout and steelhead waters, cancellations have a significant impact on us. When we commit to a specific date for your trip, valuable resources are dedicated to ensuring its success. Nevertheless, we recognize that unforeseen circumstances may arise beyond your control, and we strive to accommodate rescheduling whenever feasible.

For cancellations made more than 30 days prior to your trip's launch date, we will refund your deposit with a 10% deduction to cover administrative expenses incurred in arranging your reservation. Unfortunately, deposits cannot be refunded for cancellations within 30 days of the trip's launch date. While our lfishing trips proceed rain or shine, we retain the right to cancel if conditions are deemed unsafe or if circumstances beyond our control arise. In such cases, your deposit will be refunded in full or applied to a future date agreed upon by both parties.

We strongly advise purchasing trip insurance to safeguard against unforeseen alterations to your travel plans.

Just let us know ahead of time what gear you prefer.
