March 3rd 2016. A fantastic day on the water with Great NW Rivers Guide Service catching sturgeon with my brother Mike. Biggest fish of the day was a 5 foot - 50 pounder. Total catch and release somewhere near 25 fish. Capt. Paul kept us over the fish all day and wasn't afraid to change baits to keep the bite hot. Can't wait to book him for some springer action and later for Summer steelhead.

Nice boat; smooth, comfortable and roomy. Good gear with Lamiglass rods and excellent quality bait . Paul knows the river and openly shares what he knows. Sit back, watch and listen and you'll probably pick up a thing or two. Heck, the guy has caught a Springer in February 7 years in a row, imagine what he can do in late March. Highly recommended!

Paul knows his spots and will get you on the fish. I had an amazing time and can't be more grateful to have had the pleasure to fish with him.

I fished Sturgeon with Paul on New years on the Columbia river and talk about none stop action. It really pays to go with a quality guide that knows the river. I'm looking forward to going again!

I'll go fishing with Paul any chance I get. He'll put you on fish, teach you as much as you want to learn, and make sure that your time on the water is enjoyable. Top notch.

Paul and Clint are the best fishing guides around! They are patient, detail orientated, all about customer satisfaction and go above and beyond to make sure your trip is productive. Not to mention they are hilarious to be around! I've gone out many times with these two and have the best time ever. In fact, my 6 year old son caught is first steelhead and his first salmon with these two this summer and what a great memory it will be for him and many more to come. Believe me, these guys are the best on the water!

Paul is a solid guide. He was staged and ready to go over a half hour early, and he busted his ass throughout the whole trip. He did almost everything by himself with very little help, and kept the poles in the water and steering the boat at the same time. He was more than willing to go the extra mile. He knocked off $80 on the fee for my Dad and I because we were combat veterans, and he asked us about our service and thanked us for our service during the trip. I caught my first Chinook during this trip that hit the scale at... read more

Been out with Paul twice and he always works hard to ensure your best possible chance to catch fish. He constantly checks and puts on new baits, adjusts the depths everyone is running at and moves to new locations. Quality fishing gear and fresh bait. Easy to get along with and a fun guy to be on the water with. Both times we went out everyone on the boat caught fish. If you want a quality guide who is more than willing to teach you a thing or two about the fishery, I highly recommend Paul!
