Pacific Northwest Fishing Guide Ryan McCaughan
We are locally owned and operated and specialize in small & large rivers. By knowing each river and its fish runs, we are able to provide a high success rate for hooking you up with fish. We fish specific Washington & Oregon rivers at specific times when the fish are running. This gives you the best chance of landing that trophy Salmon, Steelhead or Sturgeon. Come enjoy a great PNW fishing trip with full-time fishing guide Ryan McCaughan.

About Ryan
I have lived in Washington State all of my life and grew up fishing with my father on all of the local rivers and streams. At the age of 7 I began fishing for salmon off the Edmonds pier. I have a passion for fishing unlike anyone I know. I specialize in fishing for large trophy size Salmon and Steelhead. I take great pride in what I do and consider it a privilege to take people fishing. I want everyone to catch fish on every trip and work tirelessly to provide the ultimate fishing experience for you. I am a fun, friendly, dedicated, and very personable guy who is very easy to talk to and get along with. I am a Licensed & Insured Washington and Oregon Fishing Guide, I have been a fishing guide for over 14 years now and look forward to have the opportunity to take you fishing.
