Fishing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Northern California, I spent countless days on the lakes and rivers, learning the art of fishing from some of the best guides in the region—including my father. Those early experiences shaped my passion and gave me invaluable on-the-water training that I carry with me to this day.

At 18, I became a full-time fishing guide and earned my U.S. Coast Guard Captain’s License, allowing me to guide anglers in California, Oregon, and Alaska. With over a decade of experience on the water nearly every day, I’ve developed the skills and knowledge to put my clients in the best position to catch fish.

My guiding style is relaxed and focused on making your fishing trip enjoyable and successful. Whether we’re targeting King Salmon, Striped Bass, Winter Steelhead, or American Shad, I’ll teach you the most effective techniques to land your catch. You’ll fish in comfort aboard my spacious 24' Willie Jet Boat or my custom-designed 17' Willie Drift Boat, depending on the adventure.
​
I look forward to sharing my passion for fishing with you and creating unforgettable days on the water. Let’s go fishing!
