If you’re looking to catch salmon/steelhead, look no further. Seriously, Nick is the man for the job. The guy is extremely respectful, his knowledge for fishing is extraordinary, and overall the best guide I’ve ever experienced. Unforgettable experience, I will always be going with him. He makes fishing not only easier, but memorable. He will put you in the best places to insure the best possible outcomes. I have never fished for salmon, within three hours and with his expertise… helped me land my first 3 salmon! (Max limit). Two kings and a coho (rare) to top it off. It’s fully understandable that it is up to you (as the fisher man) to land the fish, BUT Nick will be the one that’s going to put you in that position to succeed. He’s not there to catch the fish for you(that’s not what guided trips are about- I mean where’s the fun in someone catching them for you anyway??), but he sure will do his very best in every other aspect of fishing to help; from making sure his gear is properly set up, safety, awesome boat set up, to simply making you laugh and have a great time. If you have made it this far reading this, then why haven’t you called him yet and booked your trip? Do it now! You won’t regret it I’m telling you. PS: look at his page with the monsters we caught. If you want that, call Nick the man at apocalypse fishing

The fish were tough for everyone on the river Saturday, but we got out early and gave it our best. Nick tried everything—different colors, sizes, and depths—and worked hard the entire trip. He put in the effort and it showed. We landed one at 21 inches and released her back. Nick’s a great guy, and overall it was a good trip. I’d definitely recommend him. — Dave Anton, A-I Fabrication

The guide was excellent, but FishingBooker double-booked my trip on the day I reserved. Because of their mistake, I had to reschedule, which was frustrating and inconvenient. The guide did everything right, but the booking service dropped the ball. Honestly, FishingBooker turned out to be a waste of time. Since they kept asking for a review, here it is.

Nick was an outstanding captain with great energy. He knows the river inside and out and put us right on the fish. I ended up having the best luck of the day thanks to him. Nick is the man—absolutely a 10/10 experience.

He did everything possible to get me and my girlfriend on the fish. We hooked up a few times but just couldn’t quite land them. Still, it was a great experience and we’ll definitely be going back.

I had a great day fishing. Lots of fish on and 4 landed. Steelhead. Nick is easy to fish with, very knowledgeable and really does work to get you on fish. I can’t say enough. Thanks Nick!
