Guided Fly Fishing Trips

Our guide service centers around fly fishing for wild trout on the Yakima River.  It is the only Blue Ribbon trout stream in Washington State, and our fly shop and lodge are located riverside in the heart of the famous Yakima River Canyon.

Beginners Welcome

We teach with fun and simple instruction.  Our specialty is teaching new anglers how to fly cast and fish effectively.

We also thrive on guiding advanced anglers to great fishing, and can help them learn expert level techniques without a hint of "know it all" ego!

Fun, Educational, and Professional

Every angler, every day will be treated with respect, patience, and great service.  Whether it's teaching, rowing, or serving a gourmet lunch, we vow to make your experience the best it can be!

All of our guides posess successful strategies for catching fish. If that has not been accomplished, they would not be working at Red's for long! However, our guides’ ability to communicate instruction in an enthusiastic but patient manner is what makes a day on the water truly enjoyable.

A Testimonial

"I am getting spoiled by your high level of service and have greatly enjoyed the days we have spent together on the Yakima, Methow, and the Klickitat rivers. I have spent time with other outfitters in Washington, Montana, British Columbia and Alaska and consider your operation to be the finest that I have experienced anywhere. I can always count on your staff to give a positive 110% effort so that we get the best possible experience on the river. Thank you for all the great trips guys and I will see you soon."

What River Should I fish?

Decisions.. decisions...  Start with a guided float trip on the Yakima River.  Also, keep in mind there is 75+ miles of the Yakima River, so if you simply want to see someplace new, we will take you there!

The Naches River is 45 minutes south of our fly shop and lodge.  It is beginner friendly trout fishing as well, but seems to be favored by experienced anglers seeking a unique adventure or those who enjoy both floating and wading.

Steelhead fishing is geared towards intermediate to advanced anglers, but a hearty beginner should not be intimidated.  Although fall is the prime time for most rivers, the Klickitat River typically opens June 1st.

Smallmouth Bass fishing is an adventure sought by experienced anglers looking for something new.  These hard fighting Bass take flies aggressively and can weigh up to 6 pounds!
