Steelhead Alley Outfitters definitely lived up to their well-deserved reputation! You not only provided my son Lyman and I with a great 2 day outing into some very scenic river valleys, but also several "Firsts"!

Thanks to our guide, Patrick Robinson's patience, I caught my First steelhead. Patrick's expertise at untying my numerous birdnest knots and dealing time and time again with my "flat" learning curve.

I was most impressed with how Patrick and two other guides, Ben & John, ( who spent time helping us in a sort of coaches Tag Team effort) moved not only from hole to hole,due to the water conditions not being the best, but also to 3 different rivers over the 2 day period. Some guides, rather than work so hard with a novice fly fisherman, would simply leave you casting away all day long at the same few empty pools--But not Patrick and your guides!

Thanks again for a great 2 days of Father & Son flyfishing---I only wish it were time for our next trip with "Greg Senyo and Company".

Tight Lines,

Lyman C. Kerkhof Jr.
