Klickitat Reccomendations
« on: July 18, 2014, 12:49:38 PM »
My brother and I are novice fly fishermen.  We want to try the Klickitat for steelhead.  We do not have a boat but we made a run down there last year for the first time to check things out but really didn't know where to start so it was basically a bust.  We are thinking the best and most economical way to learn the river, techniques, etc. is to bite the bullet and hire a guide for a day.  So...

Would it be better to hit it in late August or mid to late September?  (It seems that September might be better because the Silvers and Kings will be in and allow additional opportunity???)

Any reviews and reccomendations for guides?

I'd recommend Tracy Zoller at adventurefishing.net. They have a nice place right on the river with some nice cabins and their own spot to launch and everything. He's been fishing the Klick forever and will bust his butt for you! Really nice people.
The more I get to know the less I find that I understand.

I know nothing about fly fishing but if you are wanting to bait fish the klick i could point you in the right direction. No need to hire anybody.

I can recommend "Sir" Tracy Zoller as well. He grew up there and knows it inside and out.

There are a number of good walk in along the road.  As far as locations, are you swinging flies or nymphing?
