About Your Trip

Why chase one of Southern Oregon’s signature gamefish when you can have a shot at both? Join Captain Tyler for a full day on the Rogue River during one of the most exciting stretches of the season, when King Salmon and Summer Steelhead can both be in play.

This 7-hour trip gives you plenty of time to work the river and adapt to the day's conditions. Tyler may have you drift fishing, bobber dogging, jigging, spinning, or working light tackle as you search for chrome-bright Steelhead and powerful Chinook Salmon.

Late summer into early fall is a beautiful time to be on the Rogue, and Tyler considers this one of his premier trips of the year. The scenery only gets better as fall approaches, but the real draw is having two of the Pacific Northwest's most iconic fish swimming the same river.

Everything you need to fish is waiting for you, including rods, reels, tackle, and instruction. Whether you've chased salmon and steelhead for years or this is your first time fishing a Western river, Tyler will walk you through the techniques and keep you dialed in throughout the day.

About Your Guide

Tyler G.

Independent Guide

Captain Tyler, better known as Captain Gordo, is about as local to the Rogue River as it gets. Born and raised along the river, he grew up fishing, rafting, hunting, and exploring Southern Oregon and caught his first Steelhead on the Rogue at just 3 years old.

That early start turned into a lifelong passion for the outdoors. Tyler later served in the U.S. military, taking that passion with him around the world and gaining experience that helped shape the professionalism, preparation, and work ethic he brings to every trip. He began professionally guiding in 2020 with the encouragement of family members and mentors who are guides themselves.

Today, Tyler specializes in showing anglers the incredible Salmon and Steelhead fisheries of Southern Oregon. He can fish guests from a customized 17' Pavati accommodating up to 4 or a customized Willie Raptor jet boat capable of accommodating groups up to 6.

Just as importantly, Tyler enjoys teaching. No previous fishing experience is necessary, and he'll coach anglers of all ages and skill levels through the techniques needed to be successful. Families and kids are welcome, and his goal is to provide a professional, approachable day on the river whether you're chasing your first Steelhead or returning to Oregon for another shot at a trophy Chinook.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
