I am a part time fishing guide and full time teacher. I have been guiding for 3 years but have fished all of my life and have dedicated most of my time to the outdoors. My whole family is involved in the outdoors and I love hunting and fishing. I enjoy chasing salmon all over the state of Washington and being able to take people out fishing to share my passion has been a lot of fun.
