Fished for Kokanee on Yale lake. Started our day out early with a lot more wind than the forecast showed, but Captain Bill pushed through and we found the fish. We ended up with 4 limits in the boat pretty quickly. Captain Bill creates a very positive environment on the boat. He knows what he’s doing for sure. We had a great time out there.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Bill and fishing with him.  In spite of cold rainy weather, it was a great day.  Captain Bill has a well-equipped boat and knows how to fish.  I limited out on the first try at fishing for Kokanee and had a blast doing it.  I really enjoyed getting to know Bill as a person.  He’s always upbeat and positive.  Never-the-less, after a day I considered near perfect, Bill was thinking about the one that got away and what he could have done to catch more fish and make the experience better.  Suffice to say, I will be going out with Bill again!

Bill put us on an absolute pile of fish, and made sure that everyone had a fantastic time.

His emphasis on safety is also very noteworthy. As the lower Columbia is a very tricky location to navigate.

I would highly recommend him. To anyone looking to have a safe, fun and productive trip.

Captain Bill knows his Kokanee fishing! I had a great time as well as catching my limit. I highly recommend this guide as he is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. I had a great day on the water.
