rivers and times and current fishing action. Steve Smith has been a full

Trout, Salmon, Sturgeon, Steelhead, Walleye, and Bass. Steve has guided
in Oregon, Washington and Western Montana. When he is not guiding
anglers or fishing for his own pleasure, Steve can be found working on
fish habitat conservation projects or monitoring the actions of the
legislature, agencies and groups whose actions could negatively impact
sport fisheries. The award winning weekly "Northwest Sport Fishing
Report " TV Show was produced and hosted by Steve from 1985-2000.
Through his local area knowledge and association with guides throughout
the Northwest Steve is able to pinpoint the best angling opportunities
in the Western US for his guests and keep the public informed about
threats to fish and fish habitat. On his days off Steve can most often
be found with Fly or Drift Rod in hand looking for that " next "fish. By
being constantly on the rivers of the Northwest Steve is uniquely
experienced and qualified to put you in touch with some of the worlds
best game fish. Steve is intense in his pursuit of game fish and totally
committed to his guests success and pleasure. He derives great

patterns will cause his guests when they feel the power of the west's
best game fish. Your safety is Steve's primary concern. A graduate of
the US Army Medical Training Corp. insures you of excellent immediate

Choosing a good fishing guide boils down to this...........
Do you want to hire a fulltime professional guide who fishes on his days
off or a part timer. The industry is filled with unqualified guides.
Firemen, Teachers and Students are not by definition professional
guides. Beware when hiring a guide who says he has X number of years
experience. Is that experience as a Full Time Professional or was that
time taking the kids fishing ? Call Steve at 503-661-3474 and discuss
what is going on right now and where so that you can plan your trip or
