Ratings & Reviews Summary

Zach was fantastic—super communicative, punctual, and had everything ready to go. He even helped me set up my fly rod and gave my girlfriend and me valuable guidance on techniques, flies, and ideal locations. He’s incredibly knowledgeable yet patient, making him great for those new to fishing. The boat had plenty of space for both of us to fly fish comfortably. Highly recommend!

This fishing trip was a blast! Zach was incredibly patient with me as I got used to the setup—this was my first time fishing like this, and my casts weren’t great at first, but he helped me improve quickly. I enjoyed fishing with Zach because he’s not only knowledgeable and clear in his instructions but also friendly and fun to talk to. He made sure I felt comfortable the entire time, and I ended up catching so many steelheads that my arm was sore for two days! I highly recommend booking Reel Down Outfitters for an amazing fishing experience. Thanks, Zach!
