Your guide Herman caught his very first Steelhead at age twelve. What began as a hobby in his teenage years, eventually became a passion. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, Herman has fished in nearly every river from the lower Oregon border to the upper border of Washington, making him very knowledgeable about the very unique fishing conditions in this part of the country. In addition, Herman spent five years working as a fishing guide on the Chosen River in Alaska, and still occasionally makes it back to Alaska for a few weeks a year to enjoy their unique fishing.
