I had an incredible few days on the Sacramento Delta fishing and hanging with my old friend Bryce Tedford. We go back a long ways. If you ever want to hunt for large st*****rs on the Delta, Bryce Tedford Fly Fishing is the man to go with.

Half pounder numbers are looking good on the Rogue this year. Still too early to know how the adult fall run on the Rogue is going to turn out. The Huntley Seine counts do not give an accurate representation. Sign up for my newsletter on my home page found in the link n my bio for more insights and reports on the Rogue River.

So great to be back in my driftboat guiding the Middle Fork of the Salmon for Tight Lines Fishing and Rafting. I never can capture the true beauty and intensity of this river as my hands are always busy on the oars during the best parts. I’m already dreaming of next year.

Thinking of those cool fall mornings on the Rogue on these hot summer days. Contact me to secure some prime days fishing for steelhead on the Rogue River this October.

Some more pictures from my recent trip guiding for Jeff Helfrich and Tightlines Outfitters. I will be doing two more trips in August. This is a top of the bucket list fishing trip. Everyone should have a trip down the Middle Fork at least once. I highly recommend Jeff Helfrich for the best fishing Outfitters and crew on the Middle Fork.

Just got back from my first trip guiding the Middle Fork of the Salmon in over 10 years. It was quite the homecoming! Jeff Helfrich has such a great crew. If you ever want to do the ultimate multi day fishing trip with epic scenery, whitewater and incredible fishing, the Middle Fork of the Salmon is it. My hands were to busy on the oars to capture the most beautiful parts of the trip. Looking forward to my next trip. I will do a couple of post over the coming days.
