Set off on the Hyde Drifter, a cozy boat designed for two anglers. While Dan expertly steers you along the river, you can enjoy the stunning scenery or try your luck fishing right from the boat using the handy leg locks. Whether you prefer wading through the water or fishing from the boat, this float trip lets you explore expansive river stretches and increases your chances of catching a wide variety of fish.
For those seeking a more personal adventure, the Walk and Wade option offers a wonderful opportunity to explore the river on foot. Dan’s passion for fishing shines as he guides you along secret trails in search of hidden treasures and big catches.
While there are several tackle options available, Dan’s favorite method is fly fishing. He provides high-quality gear and flies that he ties himself, and with his patient guidance, you’ll learn that there’s no single correct way to fish. Depending on the time of year, you might target species like Steelhead, Salmon, Trout, or Bass, offering a thrilling and diverse fishing experience.
To enhance your trip, Captain Dan offers grilled lunches (weather permitting) for full-day excursions, as well as water and snacks for both full and half-day trips. Be sure to bring your fishing license before you head out to ensure a seamless adventure.
