Aaron Echternkamp out of Moses lake my boys and I have hunted with him many times. Have always got our limits and if your goose hunting and the ducks are coming in also he will stay out even after you fill your goose limit. easily the best guide I have hunted with

Little late to the info sharing...but for what it's worth all the guides listed kill geese and ducks every year.  The key for you being a "new client" is to hunt a field / pond that actually has birds in it the day before.  You might get put on traffic.  A service I didn't see posted was Backwingoutfitters.  I think they are new to the guiding service game.  What I appreciated about them is that they seem to be straight shooters in the sense that if they don't have the birds they call you and say don't come.  They don't put you on traffic....  You could find some info out at their website of facebook page.  The guy I went with was Brian.  Nice guy.....and their location is one of the best around......right above the McNary Wildlife Refuge.

sounds like Mehlenbacher's.  The best farm around for running traffic!

We had Mehlenbacher's for a couple of years a while back.  Lots of birds out there and I'm sure Brian has a pretty good handle on things out there.  Was always impressive to sit in a pit there and watch 50K geese a day fly over your head.

I have hunted with Burbank, Mardon Duck Taxi, Pacific Wings and had fantastic hunts with each and not so fantastic hunts with each.  If the conditions are sub par no one can make birds happen.  I evaluate them on service and effort and honesty.   

I can't remember if the OP asked about seaducks but someone responded with a few seaduck guide references.  All I can say about that is ask to see their US Coast Guard license and TWIC card before getting in the boat.  It is required for any passenger for hire vessel on Puget Sound and Columbia River.

I went once with Echternkamps a couple years ago and had a great time.  Eric was our guide and he did a great job.  It was the last day of the season and it was slow, so we stayed in the field until dark and shot a couple limits.  Great guys.

East side, Burbank Guide Service, Northflight Guide service wet side Leon's Guide Service and Clint White guide service. I use Leon's a lot all on the Nisqually delta, sea ducks, ducks and some goose.  :twocents:

we hunted with the north flights guys a couple years back. some great guys and they put you on the birds. i would recommend them to anyone looking for a east side guide
