THE KLICKITAT RIVER

Nestled in the heart of south central Washington State, the Klickitat River is a premier destination for steelhead anglers Originating from the glaciers of Mount Adams, this river winds through rugged canyons and pristine forests before joining the Columbia River. Known for its consistent runs of summer steelhead and salmon, the Klickitat offers an unparalleled experience for anglers of all skill levels. Our guided fly fishing trips provide you with expert knowledge, personalized instruction, and access to some of the river's most productive runs. Whether you're casting for your first steelhead encounter, or a seasoned spey vet, you'll be surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Pacific Northwest, making every moment on the water unforgettable. Join our friendly and highly capable staff for an unrivaled guided experience.

Klickitat River Fly Fishing Trips

Klickitat River Fly Fishing Trips

To fully appreciate all the majesty the Klickitat River has to offer, you really need to be here for enough time to experience it all. With more than 40 miles of scenic steelhead water, you simply can't see it all in a day. We have been offering multi-day trips on the Klickitat since 2006 and these are the trips our long-time customers prefer. It just makes sense.

You will arrive at the Mt. Adams Lodge property the night before your first day of guided fishing. This is a fun evening. You need to arrive by 6 pm and a wonderful spread of appetizers, dinner, and dessert will be awaiting your group. If you get there early it's a perfect chance to settle in, enjoy the mountain view, have a drink, or maybe a cigar outside in one of the lounge chairs.

Fishing starts early with 8+ hours on the water each day, and each fishing day includes a hearty breakfast, strong coffee, and lunch on the water. Dinners are included upon arrival, but not on the evening of departure.

FISHING STYLES & STRATEGIES

FISHING STYLES & STRATEGIES

Our Klickitat River trips are hosted in fiberglass drift boats and we float anywhere from 5-12 miles per day with (2) anglers per boat. The float is scenic and wild. Our guides are skilled in multiple strategies with all possessing advanced spey skills. For non spey guests are guides will will row hard and work with guests to find fish using strike indicator rigs out of the boat as well. Dead drifting a large Stonefly nymph and/or an egg pattern is the most productive technique for our guests.

Spey fisherman should try to come prepared with some casting skills prior to the trip in order to make best use of their adventure. We like 6-7 weight two-handed rods, and 7-8 weight single handed rods for this trip. The swing anglers using spey rods will prefer Skagit heads and 10' of T-8 or T-11 sink tips (most commonly). We seldom catch fish on floating lines.
