It’s that time of year again, folks. Winter steelhead season is here! The heavy January rains have settled
in and fish are on the move. With the peak of the run yet to come, now is a great time to book a guide
trip and secure some prime dates.
Many of you have met Charlie Piette at the shop, or talked to him on the phone. He is a traveling fishing guide from Wisconsin and joined the Gorge Fly Shop Team this past fall. His steelhead affliction lured him to the Northwest in his early twenties, which eventually transpired into an additional guide season. Charlie now spends his winters working with longtime friend, Todd Harris, of Harris Anglers, out on the Oregon’s North Coast. Here’s what he has to say about the fishery:
“Steelhead fishing on the coast is one of the greatest fishing opportunities the Northwest has to offer.
Thanks to the diversity of river systems, there’s a little something for everyone. Though the coast is
known as the place to be for dedicated swing anglers, it’s also ideal for those just getting into the sport
and interested in learning a variety of techniques. Whether you are an experienced steelheader, or
hoping to catch a glimpse of one for the first time, I will plan our day accordingly to put you in position
for success.”
If you’d like to get in a boat this winter, reach out to Charlie at email or phone listed below.
