Keith fly fishing near Mount St Helens in the late 70's
|
About UsAt a young age, Keith was handed a fly rod by his grandfather Wilbur "Al" Allison. Al grew up in Idaho and fly fished as a way to help the family put food on the table. It was a difficult life to say the least, but his self taught fly fishing experiences in the back-country of north Idaho's mountains was something he wanted to pass down to his grandson. Al would take me on weekend fly fishing trips to streams around the Pacific Northwest as soon as I could handle a rod. These experiences as a youth grew beyond the mountain streams and trout dinners into a life passion for something far more challenging. The steelhead bug soon bit me hard and I have been pursuing these mystical grey ghost's, as steelhead are known, for nearly 40 years now!

Who We Are |
Born and raised in Washington, Keith is an avid outdoorsman. Whether pursuing deer and elk with a bow around western Washington, hunting upland birds around the state to fishing the streams, rivers and ocean for Steelhead and Salmon around the Northwest and Alaska, every opportunity to be outdoors has been a life long pursuit. We now live and guide on the Olympic Peninsula year round.

Our History |
Keith worked in the automotive trade for over twenty years before making the commitment to guiding full time. The opportunity to share all that the Olympic Peninsula has to offer to fellow fly angler's is what we love to do. Teaching others what I have learned in over 30 years of angling and guiding on the OP is our passion.
