What do I bring on my trip?
You might be wondering what to bring on your trip. This is a very common question. We supply all of the rods, reels, and tackle. We have all the top notch safety equipment. But it is important that you bring some essentials, so you are comfortable throughout the day.
We have detailed a list of minimum items to bring on your fishing trip. Some items may be an option, but things like a fishing license are mandatory. You need to have the appropriate fishing license depending on what species you will be fishing.
The weather in the Pacific Northwest can change quickly. Dressing properly is important to your comfort. We recommend layering, as mornings can be chilly, but it will warm up. Over in Eastern Washington we have blistering hot summers and cold winters. Wind is also a huge factor here. Make sure you look at the weather before your trip and dress accordingly.
Buy your fishing license online at the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Question: Can we bring some beer? Answer: Yes, you can drink alcohol while fishing with us. You must bring your own. However, if you become intoxicated and become a safety hazard, that can end your trip. Not to mention, you have to get home somehow because driving is not a good idea.
