Zach took my son and me out for a King Salmon fishing trip, and he had one on the line before he even finished explaining things to my nine-year-old. Here's what my son had to say: "Catching fish was cool, but I liked the boat the best."

I would absolutely recommend Shirley Catch guide service to anyone! We had such an amazing day out on the Columbia River and pulled in some really nice fish! Zach is professional in every aspect. He is an expert. Don’t know the depth? He tells exactly where you need to be…don’t know how to reel? He tells you…tangled up? He untangles and gets everyone on their way. But wait… can you fillet your catch? Doesn’t matter, because he did that also. Wonderful experience! We will definitely book another trip with this stellar guide service. Can’t wait!
