Captain Taylor Knight, one of the few female guides, caters to individuals of all abilities, providing year-round fishing adventures. No previous fishing experience is necessary.

Captain Taylor ensures an enjoyable day of fishing. Our trips typically last 6 to 8 hours, targeting species like Salmon, Sturgeon, Steelhead, Kokanee, and Crab, depending on the season and conditions. Techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, and trolling are employed. Please note that the ability to keep your catch may vary depending on the species.

Your fishing adventure begins on a 20' FishRite aluminum fishing boat, which accommodates up to 4 anglers, including children. While the boat is generally open, we provide a soft top, sides, and heater during cold and rainy months to keep you warm and dry.

The price of your trip includes all necessary equipment, such as rods, reels, terminal tackle, and lures, allowing you to focus on fishing. Don't forget to obtain a valid fishing license in advance and bring your own snacks and drinks. Captain Taylor will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home. Please drink alcohol responsibly during the trip, as excessive consumption poses risks to everyone's safety. Please note that alcohol is prohibited on Bouy 10 trips.
