Gear,Prices | Be it sea caves or salmon that you seek we can put you in a position to visit or catch either. The coastal areas of the Olympic Peninsula abound with long sandy beaches, headlands, cliffs, and sea caves. We have many species of marine mammals and birds along our coastline. We can put you at or near the best sites for a day or a week. Kyaks, sailing and dives maybe coordinated. In addition to fishing the Straits of Juan de Fuca, we have boats that allow us to fish in the Pacific Ocean beyond the mouth of the straits. We frequently fish in the area of Tatoosh Island and sometimes to the South along the coast to LaPush. We fish with all tackle for all species. Saltwater flyfishing for salmon attracts fishers from far and wide and we are good at it! This is one of the most exciting places in the world to flyfish for salmon. The riptides that form at the mouth of the Straits of Juan de Fuca and the kelp beds attract and hold salmon. We are developing topwater techniques that will thrill you beyond belief! The inset photo above is of Nancy with two beautiful salmon just inside of Tatoosh Island. The background is Vancouver Island, B.C. When conditions or our guests prefer, we are equiped to fish using a variety of techniques and tackle. We also enjoy and are good at fishing for many species of bottom fish.(halibut, lingcod, kelp greenlings, black/copper rockfish) Theses species create exciting and colorful catches. At times of tremendous concentrations of salmon south along the Washington and Oregon coast we reposition to Westport, at the mouth of the Columbia River, Willapa Bay, or Tillamook Bay, Oregon. My friend Leland Miyawaki is pioneering popper fly patterns and techniques that draw salmon to the surface on a cast and stripped fly. We are following his lead. We enjoy the opportunity to learn new techniques, and methods of fishing, new fly patterns, new paths to success. We enjoy guidance and direction from masters and early pioneers like George Mc Leod. Many of George's fly patterns and methods for the Pacific Northwest waters were developed in the late 1930's and early 1940's. They enjoyed popular usage by many in the late 1940's and early 1950's and created much of the foundation that supports modern saltwater flyfishing in the Pacific Northwest. George and other saltwater flyfishing masters join us throughtout the year to enjoy this increditable opportunity to catch salmon of the fly. |
