All of our experienced and personable guides are equipped with tackle for various methods of fishing, depending upon water conditions and the cooperation of the fish. We do cater to many die hard fly fishermen throughout our season. Most of the steelhead you catch during these trips are 14 to 19 inches with an occasional "big one". A large steelhead in the fall will be six to eight pounds. We catch Chinook salmon up to 40 pounds and Silver salmon up to 12 pounds. An Oregon fishing license and salmon-steelhead tag are needed for the number of days you plan to fish.
In the spring it is common to catch spring Chinook which are tasty, fresh fish that are smaller than the ones found in the fall run. In the winter we fish for winter steelhead.
Your Itinerary:
Day 1: Your lead fishing guide and river shuttle vehicle will meet you just downstream of the gas pumps at Galice Resort, at 8:00 a.m., on the first day of your trip. Your guide will distribute waterproof dry bags, answer any last minute questions, and help assure that your car is parked in the secure parking area. Following this introduction you will pack your stuff into the dry bag (be sure to keep any items you want during the day out of this dry bag, as they have separate day dry bags). You will hear from the guide the current fishing conditions, participate in a thorough safety presentation and then get on the river! The fishing begins almost immediately. Your guide is available to provide as much instruction as you would like, from complete fishing lessons to periodic tips. Soon after launching we reach Rainie Falls, a thundering drop that you skirt by walking around and running a sneak channel, depending on water levels. We stop here for lunch and marvel at the power of the river and nature, as spawning fish fight their way upstream. It is possible to spot fish as they attempt to leap up the falls. After lunch, more fishing, fun rapids, and scenery are found. You reach the first lodge in the afternoon after an unbelievably enjoyable and hopefully very productive first day of fishing and enjoy a tasty dinner and refreshing beverages. This evening you listen to the river and share tales of the Rogue as twilight comes to the canyon and then head off to get some sleep to rest up for the next day of great fishing.
Subsequent Days: (The number of days varies according to your trip length). Each day on the Rogue follows a similar routine although no two days are alike. Breakfast, a multi-course affair with hot cowboy coffee is served as the sun creeps into the canyon. After returning to the boats you fish one productive stretch of river after another, run exhilarating rapids, drift through idyllic calms, marvel at the rock formations, watch eagle and osprey as they circle overhead, and on and on. Depending on the day we may visit Zane Greys former writing getaway and hike up to one of the many side creek waterfalls. Lunch is set up each day around noon, with more than enough delicious food to energize you for the afternoons fishing. In the late afternoon you reach the second wilderness lodge in another beautiful and secluded wild place. The early evening hours provide time to hike, read a book, enjoy happy hour snacks and beverages, or take a nap. Dinner is prepared and served each evening with style and flair.
Final Day: After breakfast you float the final stretch of river, enjoy lunch on the banks of this magical river, and reach take-out, near the tiny town of Agness, in the early afternoon. Following a celebration toast and salute to a great trip, you gather up your trophy fish and head home, as your vehicle will be waiting for you at the take out point.
